Co-expression network analysis predicts a key role of microRNAs in the adaptation of the porcine skeletal muscle to nutrient supply
(BMC, 2020-01-17)
Background
The role of non-coding RNAs in the porcine muscle metabolism is poorly understood, with few studies investigating their expression patterns in response to nutrient supply. Therefore, we aimed ...
Analysing the Expression of Eight Clock Genes in Five Tissues From Fasting and Fed Sows
(Frontiers Media, 2018-10-18)
In a previous study, we observed that circadian clock genes are differentially expressed
in the skeletal muscle of fasting and fed sows. The goal of the current work was
to investigate if these genes ...
Identification of candidate regulatory genes for intramuscular fatty acid composition in pigs by transcriptome analysis
(BMC, 2024-02-12)
Background
Intramuscular fat (IMF) content and its fatty acid (FA) composition are typically controlled by several genes, each with a small effect. In the current study, to pinpoint candidate genes and ...
Polymorphisms of the cryptochrome 2 and mitoguardin 2 genes are associated with the variation of lipid-related traits in Duroc pigs
(Nature Research, 2019-06-21)
The genetic factors determining the phenotypic variation of porcine fatness phenotypes are still largely
unknown. We investigated whether the polymorphism of eight genes (MIGA2, CRY2, NPAS2, CIART,
ARNTL2, ...
Comparing the mRNA expression profile and the genetic determinism of intramuscular fat traits in the porcine gluteus medius and longissimus dorsi muscles
(BMC, 2019-03-04)
Background
Intramuscular fat (IMF) content and composition have a strong impact on the nutritional and organoleptic properties of porcine meat. The goal of the current work was to compare the patterns ...
Discovery and annotation of novel microRNAs in the porcine genome by using a semi-supervised transductive learning approach
(Elsevier, 2019-12-06)
Despite the broad variety of available microRNA (miRNA) prediction tools, their application to the discovery and annotation of novel miRNA genes in domestic species is still limited. In this study we ...
Expression analysis of candidate genes for fatty acid composition in adipose tissue and identifcation of regulatory regions
(Nature Research, 2018-02-01)
The aim of this work was to study the genetic basis of the backfat expression of lipid-related genes
associated with meat quality traits in pigs. We performed a genome-wide association study with ...
Detection of homozygous genotypes for a putatively lethal recessive mutation in the porcine argininosuccinate synthase 1 (ASS1) gene
(Wiley, 2019-11-15)
The sequencing of the pig genome revealed the existence of homozygous individuals for a nonsense mutation in the argininosuccinate synthase 1 (ASS1) gene (rs81212146, c.944T>A, L315X). Paradoxically, ...
A pilot RNA-seq study in 40 pietrain ejaculates to characterize the porcine sperm microbiome
(Elsevier, 2020-08-15)
The microbiome plays a key role in homeostasis and health and it has been also linked to fertility and semen quality in several animal species including swine. Despite the more than likely importance ...
Link-HD: a versatile framework to explore and integrate heterogeneous microbial communities
(Oxford University Press, 2019-11-18)
Motivation We present Link-HD, an approach to integrate multiple datasets. Link-HD is a generalization of ‘Structuration des Tableaux A Trois Indices de la Statistique–Analyse Conjointe de Tableaux’, a ...
