The elongation of very long chain fatty acids protein 6 (ELOVL6) encodes a fatty acid elongase that is responsible for the final step in endogenous saturated fatty acid synthesis and involves in de novo lipogenesis. Though the regulatory mechanism of ELOVL6 expression has been studied extensively, little is known about the role of miRNA in regulating ELOVL6 gene expression in chicken until now. To...
Genetic variations in microRNAs (miRNAs) including primary miRNAs, precursor miRNAs and mature miRNAs can lead to phenotypic variation by altering the biogenesis of miRNAs and/or their binding to target mRNAs. Increasing functional studies suggest that polymorphisms occurring in miRNAs can lead to phenotypic variation in farm animal. Here, we identified a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) located...
Understanding the role of matrix proteins in nacre formation and biomineralization in mollusks is important for the pearl industry. In this study, the gene encoding the novel Hyriopsis cumingii shell matrix protein silkmapin was characterized. The gene encodes a protein of 30.89kDa in which Gly accounts for 34.41% of the amino acid content, and the C-terminal region binds Ca2+. Secondary structure...
