Chicken Ovotransferrin Variants OTFB and OTFC Harboring Substitution of GAT (Asp) to AAT (Asn) in the Codon 500 and their Antimicrobial Activity

Chicken Ovotransferrin Variants OTFB and OTFC Harboring Substitution of GAT (Asp) to AAT (Asn) in the Codon 500 and their Antimicrobial Activity

Chicken egg white ovotransferrin (OTF) has been reported to exist in three electrophoretic variants (OTFA, OTFB and OTFC). In this report, we identified a causal polymorphism between the OTFB and OTFC variants in Japanese and Taiwanese native chickens and compared the antibacterial activity between...
