H55N polymorphism as a likely cause of variation in citrate synthase activity of mouse skeletal muscle
Aivaras Ratkevicius,Andrew M. Carroll,Audrius Kilikevicius,Tomas Venckunas,Kevin T. McDermott,Stuart R. Gray,Henning Wackerhage,Arimantas Lionikas +7 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the mechanisms underlying low activity of citrate synthase in A/J mice compared with other inbred strains of mice found a nonsynonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in Cs gene occurring near the site of the protein interacting with acetyl CoA that could be the underlying cause of low CS activity and its high affinity for substrates.

QTL Analysis of Type I and Type IIA Fibers in Soleus Muscle in a Cross between LG/J and SM/J Mouse Strains
TL;DR: The results provide the evidence that the intercross between the SM/J and LG/J strains is a promising model to search for genes affecting muscle fiber properties.
Genetic and genomic analyses of musculoskeletal differences between BEH and BEL strains
Arimantas Lionikas,Audrius Kilikevicius,Lutz Bünger,Caroline Meharg,Andrew M. Carroll,Aivaras Ratkevicius,Tomas Venckunas,David A. Blizard +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined muscle mass, which is a major contributor to body weight, by examining muscle mass in Berlin high (BEH) and Berlin low (BEL) strains selected for divergent growth.

TL;DR: The combination of analyses in F2 and F34 AIL populations with transcriptome and genomic sequence data in the parental strains is an effective strategy for refining QTL and nomination of the candidate genes.
