[en] The growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR) is involved in the regulation of
energetic homeostasis and GH secretion. In this study, the bovine GHSR gene was mapped
to BTA1 between BL26 and BMS4004. Two different bovine GHSR CDS (GHSR1a and
GHSR1b) were sequenced. Six polymorphisms (five SNPs and one 3-bp indel) were also
identified, three of them leading to amino acid variations L24V, D194N, and Del R242.
These variations are located in the extracellular N-terminal end, the exoloop 2, and the
cytoloop 3 of the receptor, respectively.
