Leptin is a hormone synthesized by adipose tissue, with important effects in regulating body weight, metabolism and reproductive function. The protein is approximately 16 kDa in mass and encoded by the obese (ob) gene. We investigated DNA polymorphism in ob locus, what is associated with higher milk production (AB genotype in RFLP1).
