Technical Abstract: Thyroid hormone-responsive protein (THRSP) is a nuclear protein expressed in liver, fat and lactating mammary gland and functions in the regulation of fatty acid synthesis. We previously demonstrated the expression of THRSP in bovine mammary gland and mapped the THRSP gene to bovine chromosome 29 nearest microsatellite marker RM179 on the USDA linkage map. The full-length sequence of the bovine THRSP mRNA was determined by sequencing a clone from a normalized bovine mammary gland cDNA library. Accession No. AY656814.
