Differential expression analysis of porcine MDH1, MDH2 and ME1 genes in adipose tissues

S. L. Zhou, Li, M. Z., Li, Q. H., Guan, J. Q., and Li, X. W., Differential expression analysis of porcine MDH1, MDH2 and ME1 genes in adipose tissues, vol. 11. pp. 1254-1259, 2012.

Malate dehydrogenases 1 and 2 (MDH1 and MDH2), and malic enzyme 1 (ME1) play important roles in the Krebs cycle for energy metabolism. The mRNA abundance changes of MDH1, MDH2 and ME1 genes were measured across six different adipose tissues from the leaner Landrace and fatty Rongchang pig breeds using quantitative real-time PCR. The mRNA of MDH1, MDH2 and ME1 was more abundant in fatty Rongchang pigs than in leaner Landrace pigs.
