![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Genomics in sports is one of the relatively new scientific insights focusing on the organization and performance of genomes in elite athletes ( 1). The results suggest that the gene polymorphisms of PGC1-α and CKMM are the same between the Iranian elite hockey athletes and non-athletes, which may be due to the overlapping effect of other genes and/or the small sample size of the study. Similarly, the percentage of these genotypes of the CKMM gene did not differ significantly between athletes and non-athletes. The results showed no significant differences for the PPARGC1A gene in the percentage of AA, GG, and AG genotypes. After examining the variants, the allele and genotype frequencies of subjects were measured. To determine the genotypes, the PCR-RFLP method was employed. To determine the genotypes of PGC1-α and CKMM gene polymorphisms, 2 ml of saliva was sampled and used for DNA extraction. The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of PGC1-α and CKMM gene polymorphisms in elite hockey athletes.įifty Iranian elite national hockey athletes and 100 non-athletes participated in this study. It is well known that physical performance and sports ability are linked to genes variations. Physical activity is a complex phenotype influenced by millions of genes and environmental factors. ![]()
