Detection of a new kappa-casein variant in milk of Pinzgauer cattle.
A new kappa-casein variant (kappa-CN G) with a frequency of 0.003 was demonstrated in Pinzgauer cattle from Austria and Bavaria, Germany by isoelectric focusing in polyacrylamide gels and by alkaline polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Kappa-CN G was not present in milk samples of Limpurger, another endangered breed.
