A New Paper on the PPARGC1a Gene
Along with Daniel Polasik and his colleagues from the West Pomeranian University of Technology in Poland, I was a co-author on a paper on a SNP in the promoter region of the equine PPARGC1a gene. The full paper can be found here but the Abstract of the paper is: The protein encoded by PPARCG1a gene is a key regulator of genes involved in energy metabolism. Numerous studies indicate that the PPARGC1a gene may be a good marker for athletic performance in horses. Therefore the a
