In: Zagazig Journal of Agricultural Research 2010.v.37(3)Summary: Calpain is a ubiquitous cytoplasmic cysteine protease, its activity is dependent on calcium. Two genes of calpain- CAPN1 (μ-calpain) and CAPNl (μ-calpain) have been identified. The micromolar calcium-activated neutral protease (CA PN1) gene encodes a cysteine protease,μ-calpain that degrades myofibril proteins under postmortem conditions and appears to be the primary enzyme in the postmortem tenderization process. Regulation of μ-calpain activity has correlated with variation in meat tenderness. Gilnetic polymorphism analysis of CAPN1 gene would likely aid in the development of selection criteria for improving meat tenderness. This study aimed to detect genetic polymorphism within intron 14 of buffalo CAPN1 gene using PCR-RFLP technique.
