Molecular Characteristics, Phylogeny and Expression Profile of the PTEN Gene in Goats

Phosphatase and the tensin homologue deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) has pleiotropic effects on cell growth, organ development, glucose metabolism and insulin resistance in mammals. In the present study, we investigated the molecular characteristics, phylogeny and expression profile of the PTEN gene in different tissues of Jianzhou Daer goats. In this study, eight different tissues from E90, E135 and D90 female goats were collected to quantify...
