畜禽肌肉生成抑制素基因多态性研究进展

摘要

Myostatin ( MSTN), a member of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily, the gene loss of function mutations in the individual showed the number and diameter of muscle fibers increased significantly, resulted in a significant increase in muscle production. The polymorphism for MSTN gene in chicken, pig, cattle and sheep was summarized.%肌肉生成抑制素属于TGFβ超家族成员,该基因功能缺失性突变的个体表现出肌纤维数量和直径显著增大,导致肌肉产量显著增加.总结了MSTN基因在鸡、猪、牛、羊上多态性的研究进展.
