VRTN is Required for the Development of Thoracic Vertebrae in Mammals. [PDF]
Int J Biol Sci, 2018 Vertnin (VRTN) variants are associated with thoracic vertebral number (TVN) in pigs. However, the biological function of VRTN remains poorly understood. Here we first conducted a range of experiments to demonstrate that VRTN is a responsible gene for TVN and two causative variants in the regulatory region of VRTN additively regulate TVN.
