Extract

Beta-lactoglobulin (LGB) is the best studies protein and found in whey protein milk of ruminants. It has been observed that the heterozygous cows produce LGB-A much more then LGB-B (Wagnet et al. 1994, Gustafson et al. 2003). The differential expression of LGB-A and LGB-B has been suggested to be because of polymorphisms in the regulatory region of LGB, and where these promoter alleles occur in linkage distinct with the alleles in the coding part of the gene (Gustafson et al. 2003). In this study pyrosequencing and PCR-RFLP were utilized to estimate allele frequencies at positions -435(R10), -424(R9), -422(R8) and coding region at codon 64, and also linkage disequilibrium in three native breeds (Mazandarani, Sarabi and Golpaygani) and Holstein cattle of Iran.
