TLDR
Analysis of the genetic architecture underlying the absolute concentrations of 2 important milk proteins in a backcross population of (Holstein × Jersey) × Holstein cattle revealed that κ-CN and β-LG production is regulated by both kinase and phosphatase activity, including mechanisms regulating the extracellular matrix.

Unravelling the genomic architecture of bull fertility in Holstein cattle.

TL;DR: A comprehensive genomic analysis in order to unravel the genomic architecture underlying sire fertility in Holstein dairy cattle revealed many significant functional terms, including fertilization, sperm motility, calcium channel regulation, and SNARE proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Predicting bull fertility using genomic data and biological information.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that genomic prediction of bull fertility is feasible in dairy cattle and provides potential for accurate genome-guided decisions, such as early culling of bull calves with low SCR predictions.

Sequence-based GWAS, network and pathway analyses reveal genes co-associated with milk cheese-making properties and milk composition in Montbéliarde cows

TL;DR: By using an approach that integrated GWAS with network and pathway analyses at the whole-genome sequence level, candidate variants that explain a substantial proportion of the phenotypic variance of CMP traits could be included in genomic evaluation models to improve milk CMP in Montbéliarde cows.
Journal ArticleDOI

Integration of GWAS, pathway and network analyses reveals novel mechanistic insights into the synthesis of milk proteins in dairy cows

TL;DR: Gene-set analysis and the network-based Associated Weight Matrix approach revealed that the milk proteins associated genes were involved in several biological functions, particularly ion and cation transmembrane transporter activity and neuronal and hormone signalling, according to the structure and function of casein micelles.

Genetic dissection of bull fertility in US Jersey dairy cattle.

TL;DR: The genetic architecture of sire fertility in US Jersey cattle is dissected to unravel genetic variants and pathways affecting Jersey bull fertility and may contribute to the development of novel genomic strategies for improving sireertility in Jersey cattle.

Controlling the false discovery rate: a practical and powerful approach to multiple testing

TL;DR: In this paper, a different approach to problems of multiple significance testing is presented, which calls for controlling the expected proportion of falsely rejected hypotheses -the false discovery rate, which is equivalent to the FWER when all hypotheses are true but is smaller otherwise.

Gene Ontology: tool for the unification of biology

TL;DR: The goal of the Gene Ontology Consortium is to produce a dynamic, controlled vocabulary that can be applied to all eukaryotes even as knowledge of gene and protein roles in cells is accumulating and changing.

Rho GTPases and the Actin Cytoskeleton

TL;DR: Members of the Rho family of small guanosine triphosphatases have emerged as key regulators of the actin cytoskeleton, and through their interaction with multiple target proteins, they ensure coordinated control of other cellular activities such as gene transcription and adhesion.

Rho GTPases in cell biology.

TL;DR: Rho GTPases are molecular switches that control a wide variety of signal transduction pathways in all eukaryotic cells and their ability to influence cell polarity, microtubule dynamics, membrane transport pathways and transcription factor activity is probably just as significant.
