Biotechnology in horses encompasses the application of biological techniques and tools to enhance equine health, performance, and reproduction. This field includes genetic engineering, cloning, and the development of vaccines and therapeutics tailored to equine physiology. Techniques such as gene editing and stem cell therapy are explored for their potential to address genetic disorders, improve tissue regeneration, and enhance disease resistance in horses. Additionally, advancements in reproductive biotechnology, such as artificial insemination and embryo transfer, contribute to genetic diversity and breeding efficiency. This page compiles peer-reviewed research studies and scholarly articles that investigate the applications, methodologies, and implications of biotechnology in equine science.
The cancellation of mirror-image electrocardiograms in the horse. The paper describes the use of a four-electrode cancellation technique, employing a bridge circuit to cancel mirror-image ECGs on the body surface of six horses. The axes joining points at which good cancellations were obtained were plotted on planar diagrams. Evidence is presented which suggests that a considerable proportion of cardiac activity could be regarded as though arising from the activity of a single resultant dipole although there is probably some mobility of the dipole centre during different parts of the cardiac cycle.
N-Terminal sequences of equine and human immunoglobulin heavy chains. N-terminal tetrapeptides from heavy chains of equine γGab- and γT-globulins, and of human γG and γA myeloma proteins and a γM macroglobulin, have been studied. The equine and human heavy chains lacked free α-amino-terminal groups. After mild alkaline hydrolysis, glutamic acid was identified as the terminal amino acid by reaction with dimethylaminonaphthalenesulfonyl chloride, tentatively identifying pyrrolid-2-one-5-carboxylic acid (PCA) as the unreactive terminal residue of each heavy chain. Peptides lacking a free α-amino group were isolated from subtilisin and pronase digests of the ...
A comparison of fingerprints of tryptic digests of human, horse and rat apoferritins. 1. Fingerprints of tryptic digests of apoferritins from a human liver, horse spleens and ACI rat livers were made by means of electrophoresis and chromatography on microcrystalline cellulose, and were compared.
2. All tryptic peptides also present in apoferritins from the human liver and the horse spleens were also present in apoferritin from the rat livers.
3. In the digests of horse and of rat apoferritin there was a peptide that was not present in the digests of human apoferritin. Another peptide was obtained from human and from rat apoferritin, but not from horse apoferritin.

Measurement of ligand-induced conformational changes in hemoglobin by circular dichroism. The UV circular-dichroism spectra of human and horse hemoglobins have been determined at various degrees of partial saturation with oxygen. Spectra of the two native hemoglobins were compared with spectra of the corresponding proteins modified with a reagent known to eliminate the conformational rearrangement normally associated with cooperativity. Such comparison indicates that one region, around 260 mmu, is sensitive chiefly to the state of the hemes; changes in another region, around 285 mmu, may be correlated with the conformational transformation linked to cooperative interactions.
