Abstract

It is of interest to identify and annotate milk associated genes using expression profiling and RNA-Seq data from milk somatic cells. RNA-Seq data was pre-processed and mapping was done to identify differentially expressed genes (DEG). The functional insights about the up and down regulated genes were gleaned using the protein-protein interaction Network in the STRING database followed by CytoHubba analysis in Cytoscope. Gene ontology, annotation and pathway enrichment was completed using ShinyGO, David tool and QTL analysis. These analysis shows that 21 genes are linked with the secretion of milk.
