We have recently showed that the pyruvate dehydrogenase (lipoamide) beta (PDHB) gene involved in fatty acid oxidation, the sorbin and SH3 domain containing 1 (SORBS1) gene involved in insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, and the endothelial differentiation, sphingolipid G-protein-coupled receptor, 1 (EDG1) gene involved in blood vessel formation possess expression differences in musculus longissimus muscle between low-marbled and high-marbled steer groups. In the present study, we detected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter regions of the 3 genes between the 2 steer groups. A SNP in the EDG1 exhibited significantly different allelic distribution between animals with extremely high predicted breeding value for marbling and with extremely low one. The EDG1 SNP may be related to changes in gene expression and/or marbling.
