A single nucleotide polymorphism possibly associated with fat deposition is methylated in the bovine TFAM promoter

Mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) is a nuclear-encoded mitochondrial protein that plays an important role in energy metabolism and is a candidate gene for fat deposition in cattle and human. In the present study, we characterized the methylation status of bovine TFAM promoter flanking the...
