Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a pig subcutaneous fat-related circular RNA and its application, more specifically to circRNA_11897 and its application. Background technique
[0002] The quality of pork is closely related to human health. Excessive deposition of subcutaneous fat will increase the content of cholesterol and reduce the quality of pork. Consumers will easily lead to obesity after ingestion. Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanism of fat deposition will help improve the quality of pork. Pork quality and human health. Large white pig, as a typical lean pig, has low subcutaneous fat; while Laiwu pork has bright red color, good water holding capacity, high fat content, and excellent meat quality. Therefore, the significant difference in fat deposition between Large White and Laiwu pigs provides a good model for the study of fat metabolism.
[0003] circRNA is a kind of circular endogeno...
