The porcine proteasome subunit A4 (PSMA4) gene: isolation of a partial cDNA, linkage and physical mapping

Anim Genet. 1998 Oct;29(5):385-8. doi: 10.1046/j.1365-2052.1998.295354.x.

Abstract

A partial cDNA clone encoding the porcine proteasome subunit A4 (PSMA4 or proteasome subunit C9) has been isolated from a porcine muscle cDNA library and sequenced. A biallelic TaqI RFLP was identified in Large White, Landrace and Duroc breeds. Moreover, the 3'-untranslated region of the gene showed a triallelic SSCP. By linkage analysis the PSMA4 locus was assigned to pig chromosome 7 and by radioactive in situ hybridization this locus was mapped to the region 7q13-q14.
