The analysis of genetic diversity and differentiation of six Chinese cattle populations using microsatellite markers

A total of 321 individuals from six cattle populations of four species in a bovine subfamily in China were studied using 12 pairs of microsatellite markers. The genetic diversities within and between populations were calculated. The phylogenetic trees were constructed by （δμ）^2 and DA distances, and the divergence times between populations were estimated by （δμ）^2. Altogether, 144 microsatellite alleles were detected including 24 private alleles and nine shared alleles. Chinese Holstein had the largest number of private alleles （10）, whereas Bohai black and Buffalo had the smallest number of private alleles （2）. Chinese Holstein showed the highest genetic variability. Its observed number of alleles （Na）, mean effective number of alleles （MNA）, and mean heterozygosity （He） were 7.7500, 4.9722, and 0.7719, respectively, whereas, the Buffalo and Yak showed low genetic variability. In the phylogenetic trees, Luxi and Holstein grouped first, followed by Bohai and Minnan. Yak branched next and buffalo emerged as the most divergent population from other cattle populations. Luxi and Bohai were estimated to have diverged 0.039-0.105 million years ago （MYA）, however, buffalo and Holstein diverged 0.501-1.337 MYA. The divergence time of Yak versus Minnan, Holstein and buffalo was 0.136-0.363, 0.273-0.729, and 0.326-0.600 MYA, respectively.     

Comparing the frequencies of restriction fragment length polymorphisms for dystrophin gene in Chinese with those from Japanese and Caucasian populations

The restriction fragment length polymorphisms distribution and frequency of dystrophin gene in Chinese were studied by using 14 subclones of the entire 14kb cDNA for the dystrophin as hybridization probes. Allelic fragments were detected in hybridization patterns of PvuⅡ/la, Taq Ⅰ/2b-3, Taq Ⅰ/5b-7, and Xba Ⅰ/10. Among them, the allelic fragments (26kb and 3.8kb) in PvuⅡ/2b-3 pattern and the allelic fragments (10.0kb and 8.4kb) in Taq Ⅰ/5b-7 patterns had never been reported previously. Compared with the data from Caucasians and Japanese, it indicated that there was a significant difference (P<0.01) of the allelic fragment frequency in Taq Ⅰ/2b-3 and Xba Ⅰ/10 patterns between Chinese and Caucasians. The frequencies of allelic fragments A2 (5.6kb) in Taq Ⅰ/8 and A2 (10.Tkb) in EcoR Ⅴ/9 were high in Caucasians, yet had not been detected in Chinese, the differences were also highly significant. But in Chinese and Caucasians, the B1B2 allelic frequencies in Taq Ⅰ/5b-7 are the same. As to the frequency of the allelic fragments A1A2 and B1B2 in Pvu Ⅱ/la, there was no significant difference between Chinese and Japanese.     

Principal component analysis of gene frequencies of Chinese populations

Principal components (PCs) were calculated based on gene frequencies of 130 alleles at 38 loci in Chinese populations, and geographic PC maps were constructed. The first PC map of the Han shows the genetic difference between Southern and Northern Mongoloids, while the second PC indicates the gene flow between Caucasoid and Mongoloids. The first PC map of the Chinese ethnic minorities is similar to that of the second PC map of the Han, while their second PC map is similar to the first PC map of the Han. When calculating PC with the gene frequency data from both the Han and ethnic minorities, the first and second PC maps most resemble those of the ethnic minorities alone. The third and fourth PC maps of Chinese populations may reflect historical events that allowed the expansion of the populations in the highly civilized regions. A clear-cut boundary between Southern and Northern Mongoloids in the synthetic map of the Chinese populations was observed in the zone of the Yangtze River. We suggest that the a

为研究中国汉族群体IDUA 基因Kpn I 酶切位点的遗传多态性以及该位点等位基因片段传递的规律, 采用PCR-RFLP技术, 对162例无血缘关系的健康中国汉人的324条 染色体进行检测,另又对5个家系16位成员进行同样的检测,然后用χ2检验进行统计学处理。结果表明,等位基因A1 频率为0.17,等位基因A2 频率为0.83,杂合率为29%;A1 、A2 的传递规律与理论上预计的完全符合。认为中国汉族群体IDUA 基因 Kpn I 酶切位点也具有遗传多态性, 并且与国外报道的无显著性差异;A1、A2 在世代中的传递完全符合孟德尔遗传规律。 Abstract:To investigate the genetic polymorphism of the Kpn I site in the α-L-iduronidase(IDUA) gene from a Han population in southern China and to study the mode of transmission of alleles, PCR-RFLP was used to analyze 324 chromosomes from 162 Chinese unrelated healthy Han individuals, and the analysis of the genotypes of 16 members in five families. To compare the frequencies and heterzygosity between Chinese Han population and Caucasians in Western by using χ2test. The frequency of allele 1 (450bp) was 0.17,allele 2 (390 plus 60 bp) 0.83, the heterozygosity was 29%.The genotypes of each member of all families detected was completely agreement with the theorical assessment. The locus of Kpn I in the IDUAgene from Han population has polymorphism. There is no significant difference between Chinese Han population and Caucasians in Western countries. The transmission of alleles was agreement with the Mendelian genetic law.     

Genetic polymorphism of mitochondrial DNA HVS-I and HVS-Ⅱ of Chinese Tu ethnic minority group

We analyzed the two hypervariable segments HVS-Ⅰ and HVS-Ⅱ of 108 Chinese Tu ethnic minority group samples for forensic and population genetics purposes.Comparing with Anderson sequence,79 polymorphic loci in HVS-Ⅰ and 40 in HVS-Ⅱ were found in Chi-nese Tu ethnic minority group mtDNA sequences,and 90 and 64 haplotypes were then defined.Haplotype diversity and the mean pair-wise differences were 0.9903±0.0013 and 5.7785 in HVS-Ⅰ,and 0.9777±0.0013 and 3.5819 in HVS-Ⅱ,respectively.By analyzing the hypervariable domain from nucleotide 1,6180 to 1,6193 in HVS-Ⅰ,we defined some new types of sequence variations.We also compared the relationship between Tu population and other populations using mtDNA HVS-Ⅰ sequences.According to Rst genetic distances,the phylogenetic tree showed that the Tu population,the Xi'an Han population,the Chinese Korean,and the Mongol ethnic group were in a clade.This indicated a close genetic relationship between them.There were far relations between the Tu population and other Chinese southern Han populations,Siberian,European,African,and other foreign populations.The results suggest that Tu population has a multi-origin and has also merged with other local populations.     

CCR5delta32, CCR2-64I, and SDF1-3'A polymorphisms related to resistance to HIV-1 infection and disease in the Ecuadorian population

The aim of this study was to determine the allele frequencies of genetic variants CCR5delta32, CCR2-64I, and SDF1-3'A (SDF1 801 A), which influence susceptibility to HIV-1 infection. We also investigated the effect of these variants on the general Ecuadoran population and on a group of HIV-infected individuals to determine the frequency of these genetics variants.     

Prevalence of alleles associated with HIV resistance in Russia

Genetic polymorphisms of CCR5, CCR2, and SDF1 genes have been associated with resistance during human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection and disease progression. In the present report, we studied the frequency and co-occurrence of CCR5Delta32, CCR5-59029A/G, CCR2-64I, and SDF1-3'A allelic variants among HIV-1-seronegative individuals (n = 171) in Moscow. Observed allelic frequencies were 0.0906 [95% confidence interval (CI), 0.06-0.1212] for CCR5Delta32, 0.4072 (95% CI, 0.3542-0.4602) for CCR5-59029G, 0.1061 (95% CI, 0.0728-0.1394) for CCR2-64I, and 0.2218 (95% CI 0.1715-0.2721) for SDF1-3'A. A significant linkage disequilibrium (p = 0.0034) between CCR2-64I and SDF1-3'A alleles was observed.     

Distribution of CCR5-delta32, CCR2-64I, and SDF1-3'A mutations in populations from the Brazilian Amazon region

The frequency distribution of the CCR5-delta32, CCR2-64I, and SDF1-3'A alleles was studied in the urban population of Belém and in Afro-Brazilians, Amerindians, and Japanese immigrants in the state of Pará, Brazil. The results suggest that Amerindians may be genetically more susceptible to HIV-1 infection and disease progression than the other human groups studied.     

Distribution of the HIV-1 resistance-conferring alleles (CCR5delta32, CCR2-64I, and SDF1 3'A) in Russian, Ukrainian, and Belarusian populations

The frequencies of three alleles, CCR5delta32, CCR2-64I, and SDF1 3'A, known to decrease the risk of AIDS onset and the rate of the disease progression in HIV-infected individuals were determined in three native population samples from Russia, Ukraine, and Belarus. The frequencies of the alleles were 0.15, 0.12, 0.21; 0.12, 0.07, 0.20; and 0.12, 0.08, 0.26 for Russians, Ukrainians, and Belarussians, respectively. The proportion of the individuals without any of three protective alleles among Russians, Ukrainians, and Belarussians constituted 49, 65, and 61%, respectively. The genotype frequencies for the three loci studied were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Based on the three-locus genotype frequencies, the hazard ratios (relative hazards, RH) of AIDS onset in HIV-infected individuals in each sample were calculated as ranging from 0.79 to 0.88. In the samples of Eastern Slavs analyzed the estimated frequencies of the AIDS-protective alleles tested, as well as the frequencies of the corresponding genotypes and the relative hazards of AIDS onset were within the range of these parameters for the other European populations. The data on the allele frequencies and the relative hazard values in Russians, Ukrainians and Belarussians can be used as the predictors of AIDS onset and progression rate in HIV-1-infected individuals from the populations studied.     

Distribution of Two HIV-1–Resistant Polymorphisms (SDF1-3′Aand CCR2-64I) in East Asian and World Populations and Its Implicationin AIDS Epidemiology

Chemokine receptor CCR2 and stromal-derived factor (SDF-1) are involved in HIV infection and AIDS symptom onset. Recent cohort studies showed that point mutations in these two genes, CCR2-64I and SDF1-3'A, can delay AIDS onset > or = 16 years after seroconversions. The protective effect of CCR2-64I is dominant, whereas that of SDF1-3'A is recessive. SDF1-3'A homozygotes also showed possible protection against HIV-1 infection. In this study, we surveyed the frequency distributions of the two alleles at both loci in world populations, with emphasis on those in east Asia. The CCR2-64I frequencies do not vary significantly in the different continents, having a range of 0.1-0.2 in most populations. A decreasing cline of the CCR2-64I frequency from north to south was observed in east Asia. In contrast, the distribution of SDF1-3'A in world populations varies substantially, and the highest frequency was observed in Oceanian populations. Moreover, an increasing cline of the SDF1-3'A frequency from north to south was observed in east Asia. The relative hazard values were computed to evaluate the risk of AIDS onset on the basis of two-locus genotypes in the east Asian and world populations.     

Frequencies of the CCR2-64I and SDF1-3'A alleles associated with progression of the HIV-1 disease in healthy individuals from Moscow

The frequencies of two mutations associated with the development of clinical symptoms upon infection with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) were determined in a cohort of individuals from Moscow. Allelic frequency of the first mutation, CCR2-64I, causing the substitution of valine with isoleucine in the CCR2 chemokine receptor, was 0.1106 (95% confidence interval, 0.0714-0.1498). The frequency of the second mutation the G to A substitution in the 3'-untranslated region of the stromal-derived factor 1 encoding gene, SDF1-3'A, was 0.2125 (95% confidential interval, 0.1608-0.2642). Both values were slightly higher than those obtained earlier for Western European countries. This result can be explained by higher proportion of Asian immigrants, characterized by higher frequencies of these mutations, in the population of Moscow.     

The effect of combined polymorphisms in chemokines and chemokine receptors on the clinical course of HIV-1 infection in a Brazilian population

Polymorphisms in genes that encode chemokines or their receptors can modulate susceptibility to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and disease progression. The objective of this study was to assess the frequency of polymorphisms CCR5-Δ32, CCR2-64I, CCR5-59029A and SDF1-3'A and their role in the course of HIV infection in a Southern Brazilian population. Clinical data were obtained from 249 patients for an average period of 6.4 years and genotypes were determined by standard polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Survival analyses were conducted for three outcomes: CD4+ T-cell counts below 200 cells/μL, acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) or death. The frequency of the polymorphisms CCR5-Δ32, CCR2-64I, CCR5-59029A and SDF1-3'A were 0.024, 0.113, 0.487 and 0.207, respectively. CCR5-Δ32 was associated with a reduction in the risk for CD4+ T-cell depletion and with an increased risk for death after AIDS diagnosis. CCR2-64I was associated with a reduction in the risk for developing AIDS. SDF1-3'A was also associated with decreased risk for AIDS, but its effect was only evident when CCR2-64I was present as well. These results highlight the possibility of using these markers as indicators for the prognosis of disease progression and provide evidence for the importance of analysing the effects of gene polymorphisms in a combined fashion.
