[update] The slick-hair phenotype in cattle is due to one of a series of mutations in the prolactin receptor (PRLR) that cause truncation of the C-terminal region of the protein involved in JAK2/STAT5 activation during prolactin signaling. Here we… https://t.co/wKlKm0ElMA
The SLICK haplotype originally identified in Senepol cattle has been introduced into Holsteins. Inheritance of the SLICK1 allele of the prolactin receptor gene improves thermotolerance of lactating Holstein cows under…
