Polymorphism of ovine KRTAP6-1. (a) Four variants ($A$, $B$, $E$ and $F)$ of ovine KRTAP6-1 were detected in New Zealand Romney ewes by PCR single-stranded conformational polymorphism analysis. (b) Sequence comparison of the four ovine KRTAP6-1 variants identified in this study, and those previously identified variants ($C$ and $D$), revealed three new single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at c.${}^{\ast }$4, c.${}^{\ast }$10 and c.${}^{\ast }$34.
