Effects of SNP within Exon 7 of the Insulin-like Growth Factor Receptor Type 1 ( IGF1R ) Gene on Growth Traits in Angus Cows

摘要

Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R) signaling pathway plays a key role in the postnatal growth and development. The tyrosine kinase receptor IGF1R forms homodimers that is activated by IGF-I which trigger autophosphorylation of IGF1R and subsequ
