A Functional Variant Alters the Binding of <i>Bone morphogenetic protein 2</i> to the Transcription Factor NF-κB to Regulate <i>Bone morphogenetic protein 2</i> Gene Expression and Chicken Abdominal Fat Deposition

In this study, we employed a dual-luciferase reporter assay and electrophoretic mobility shift analysis (EMSA) in vitro to explore whether a 12-base pair (bp) insertion/deletion (InDel) variant (namely g.14798187_14798188insTCCCTGCCCCCT) within intron 2 of the chicken <i>BMP2</i> gene, w...
