Sequence polymorphism of PrP exon 3 gene in Istrian and crossbred sheep

Sequence polymorphism of PrP exon 3 gene in Istrian and crossbred sheep

Polymorphisms in sheep PrP (prion protein) gene are known for scrapie susceptibility. We sequenced part of PrP exon 3 gene in 92 autochthonous Istrian (IS) and 38 crossbred sheep (CBS). ARQ, ARR and AHQ alleles were predominant with frequency of 0.674 (0.526), 0.228 (0.132) and 0.082 (0.263) in IS (...
