Rapid communication: BamHI restriction fragment length polymorphism detected with a pig gastric mucin (MUC5AC) probe
Article Abstract:
The analysis of the BamHI hybridized restriction enzyme revealed the presence of six polymorphic fragments. Polymorphic occurrences were also detected in TaqI, PstI and MspI gene loci. The polymorphic fragments were autosomally inherited among families in a span of three generations. The genetic fragments were isolated using agarose gel electrophoresis. The MUC5AC gene was probed using a homologous PGM-9B pig cDNA clones that encodes gastric mucin.

Rapid communication: myogenin (MYOG) physically maps to porcine chromosome 9q2.1-q2.6
Article Abstract:
Myogenin is part of the helix-loop-helix family of skeletal muscle-specific transcription factors. The pig myogenin in chromosomal location 9q2.1.-q2.6 conforms with a segment of the human chromosome 1q31-qter which indicates its localization. It is determined through genetic mapping which shows the correspondence between the pig and human chromosomes. Such an analysis presents that myogenin physically maps to porcine chromosome 9q2.1-q2.6.

Rapid communication: a restriction fragment length polymorphism in the ovine prolactin gene
Article Abstract:
The detection of polymorphism in the prolactin gene of sheep was carried out through the use of PCR amplification. The identified polymorphism came in the form of bands that ranged from 1,400-150 bp for both A and B alleles. During the investigation, a secondary polymorphism emerged which was quite consonant with the first. The results of such research are useful for increasing knowledge of reproductive functions.
