Polymorphism and chromosomal localization of the porcine signal transducer and activator of transcription 5B gene (STAT5B) [PDF]
Signal transducers and activators of transcription (STATs) are a family of transcription factors. STAT5A and 5B are two highly related proteins encoded by two distinct genes.
