Abstract
In order to gain new knowledge of the genetic control of biochemical and developmental processes that contribute to beef quality, we constructed a bovine microarray of 9600 elements comprising about 2000 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) and 7300 anonymous cDNA clones from muscle and fat-derived cDNA libraries. The microarray was used in 2 animal experiments aimed at uncovering gene expression differences associated with adipogenesis and protein turnover. The results obtained so far show that expression profiling of bovine muscle using the microarray can reliably identify differentially expressed genes and confirm existing hypotheses. Moreover, the technique can provide new evidence on the detailed involvement of well-characterised genes and can identify genes that have not previously been described as having a role in these processes.
