猪a1-岩藻糖转移酶基因(FUT1)在26个中外猪种中的遗传变异研究

肠毒素大肠杆菌F18(ECF18)是引起仔猪断奶后水肿和腹泻病的主要病原菌,a1—岩藻糖转移酶基因(FUT1)是ECF18侵染猪小肠的受体蛋白候选基因。通过采用PCR—RFLP方法检测了5个西方商业猪种以及21个中国地方猪种(群)1458个个体在FUT1基因开放阅读框架的307核苷酸位点的G-A点突变(M307^G-A)遗传变异。结果表明：5个外来猪种以及中国地方猪种中的临高猪在该FUT1基因位点存在多态性,其他中国地方猪种均表现为极端的单态分布,只有易感的GG基因型,没有多态性。由此提示：1)如果猪FUT1 M307^G-A点突变是决定猪小肠上ECF18受体表达与否的关键因素,则绝大部分中国地方猪种均不具备抵抗ECF18的遗传基础,这除了表明ECF18抗性基因有可能起源于西方猪种外,同时也表明对中国地方猪种中在这个位点惟一存在多态性的海南临高猪的品种资源保存具有非常重要的意义。2)一般而言,在中国的养猪生产实践中,中国地方猪种的仔猪抗水肿与腹泻病能力普遍强于外来猪种,研究的结果提示有必要对中国地方猪种所具备的上述遗传抗性做更深入的研究,寻找、定位其相应的QTL或／和抗性基因。     

仔猪BPI基因表达水平与大肠杆菌F18菌株感染的关系

文章利用已建立的苏太猪F18大肠杆菌病抗性和敏感性资源家系群体作为实验材料,分别选择8头35日龄左右生长性状基本一致的大肠杆菌F18菌株抗性和敏感性断奶仔猪,运用Real-time PCR方法检测BPI基因mRNA在断奶仔猪各个组织的分布情况,并比较其在大肠杆菌F18菌株抗性型和敏感型断奶仔猪个体间的差异表达水平,为探讨该基因在免疫和抗大肠杆菌F18菌株感染中的作用提供依据。结果表明,在对所有个体检测的11个组织中,BPI基因在心、肝、脾、肺、肾、胃、肌肉、胸腺、淋巴结中几乎不表达,或表达量很低,但在十二指肠和空肠中表达量很高。在十二指肠和空肠中,BPI基因在抗性组的表达量均显著高于敏感组的表达量(P<0.05)。由此表明,BPI基因对抗断奶仔猪肠道中大肠杆菌F18菌株的感染可能具有直接作用,并且个体对大肠杆菌F18菌株的抗性可能与BPI基因在肠道中表达量上调有关。

猪FUT1基因对肉质和胴体性状的影响

测定139头杂交猪(大白猪和梅山猪)的14个肉质性状和8个胴体性状,用PCR-RFLP方法检测FUT1基因型。分析猪FUT1基因型间肉质和胴体性状差异,发现AA基因型猪3个部位肌肉pH值均比AG基因型的高,其中pH(LD)达到显著水平(P<0.05)。AA基因型猪肌肉系水力显著高于AG猪的系水力(91.02% VS 86.70%,P<0.05)。AA基因型猪的肉色值显著高于AG猪的(P<0.05)。AA基因型猪三个部位肌肉膘厚值均较低,其中最后肋骨膘厚和倒数三四肋骨膘厚分别比AG基因型猪的低4.26 mm和3.96 mm(P<0.05)。AA基因型猪瘦肉率比AG基因型猪的高3.31% (53.46% VS 50.15%,P<0.05)。以上结果表明FUT1基因的AA基因型对肉质和和胴体性状具有显著的正遗传效应,这对于在抗病育种中应用该基因十分有利。     

梵净山特种野猪RYR1基因的RFLP检测

Effects of FUT1 gene mutation on resistance to infectious disease

Alpha-(1,2)-fucosyltransferase (FUT1) gene has been identified as a candidate gene for regulating the expression of Escherichia coli F18 receptor gene (ECF18R) which promotes adherence of Enterotoxigenic (ETEC) and Verotoxigenic (VTEC) Escherichia coli (E. coli) via F18 fimbriae. In order to illustrate the polymorphisms of FUT1 and their effects on resistance to natural infection by Porcine Respiratory and Reproductive Symdrome Virus (PRRSV) and Haemophilus parasuis, the distributions of different genotypes and the relative risks of disease incidence in pigs were investigated. A total of 1,041 pigs representing three European breeds (Duroc, Landrace and LargeWhite), five Chinese local breeds (Wild pig, Small MeiShan, QinPing, JinHua, and JianLi) and three commercial populations (LargeWhite?×?JianLi, Duroc?×?Landrace?×?LargeWhite and Duroc?×?wild pig) were selected to analyze the genotype of the FUT1 gene by PCR-RFLP. Only the GG genotype associated with susceptibility to ECF18 bacteria was detected in Chinese local pig breeds and a population of LargeWhite?×?JianLi, while the AA genotype which confers resistance to ECF18 was detected in two European breeds (Duroc and LargeWhite), two populations of Duroc?×?wild pig and Duroc?×?Landrace?×?LargeWhite. Regarding relative risk of incidence, Duroc?×?Landrace?×?LargeWhite with genotypes GG or AG showed greater relative risk (OR?=?2.040, P?=?0.025; OR?=?1.750, P?=?0.081, respectively) than those with genotype AA during natural infection by both PRRSV and Haemophilus parasuis. It can be concluded that the mutation of FUT1 gene might play a role in pig infection by multi-pathogens, and that AA may be a favourable genotype for increasing the resistance to disease.     

Polymorphism of M307 of the FUT1 Gene and Its Relationship with Some Immune Indexes in Sutai Pigs (Duroc????Meishan)

The alpha (1,2)fucosyltransferase (FUT1) gene has been identified as a candidate gene for controlling the expression of the enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) F18 receptor. Polymorphisms were detected at the M307 position in FUT1 of a breeding base population of Sutai pigs and their correlations to immune parameters analyzed. After digestion by Hin6I, three genotypes were identified at M307, AA (frequency 0.235), AG (0.609), and GG (0.156), with significant deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P < 0.01). The hemoglobin and white blood cell count of the AA genotype pigs were significantly higher than those of AG and GG pigs (P < 0.05). The results indicated that AA pigs not only are resistant to edema disease and post-weaning diarrhea in piglets but also have relatively strong resistance to disease in general.     

6个中国猪地方品种和3个瑞典猪DNA分子系统发育相关关系

线粒体DNA遗传多样性用于评价6个中国地方猪种和3个瑞典家猪系统发育关系。采用PCR和序列分析方法得到了来自9个品种140头猪的线粒体中控制区440bp和细胞色素b基因798bp核苷酸序列。系统发育分析结果表明：6个中国地方猪种起源于亚洲野猪。中国地方猪种和欧洲野猪的线粒体DNA核苷酸序列变异发生在413000－875000年以前,而亚洲紧猪的变异仅发生在7000－156000上以前,由于2000年以前或18世纪初中国猪种导入欧洲家猪,因此瑞典家猪既属于欧洲类也属于亚洲类。     

Study on the age-dependent tissue expression of FUT1 gene in porcine and its relationship to E. coli F18 receptor

Escherichia coli (E. coli) that produces adhesin F18 is the main pathogen responsible for porcine post-weaning diarrhea and edema disease. The receptor for E. coli F18 has not been described in pigs, however the alpha (1,2)-fucosyltransferase (FUT1) gene on chromosome 6 has been proposed as a candidate. The objective of this study, therefore, was to investigate the relationship between FUT1 gene expression and E. coli F18 receptor in Sutai pigs of different ages (8-, 18-, 30- and 35-day-old). FUT1 gene expression was detected in 11 pig tissues with the highest level in lung, and expressed consistently at the four time points. In most tissues, FUT1 gene expression levels decreased from days 8 to 18, then continually increased on days 30 and 35, with expression around weaning time higher than that on day 8. Gene ontology and pathway analysis showed that FUT1 was involved in 32 biological processes, mainly those integral to the membrane, or involved in glycosylation, as well as regulation of binding, interestingly participating in three pathways related to glycosphingolipid biosynthesis. From this analysis and the high linkage disequilibrium between the FUT1 gene and the E. coli F18 receptor locus, we can speculate that higher expression of the FUT1 gene in small intestine is beneficial to the formation of receptors to the E. coli F18 strain and is related to the sensitivity to the pathogen.     

Evaluation of M307 of <Emphasis Type="Italic">FUT1</Emphasis> gene as a genetic marker for disease resistance breeding of sutai pigs

Alpha (1,2) fucosyltransferase (FUT1) gene has been identified as a candidate gene for controlling the expression of the receptor for ETEC F18. The genetic variations in the position of M307 nucleotide in open reading frame of FUT1 have been proposed as a marker for selecting ETEC F18 resistant pigs. The polymorphisms of M307 in FUT1 of breeding base group for ETEC F18 resistance of Sutai pigs (Duroc × Meishan) was detected and their correlations to some immune indexes, growth and development ability, carcass traits and meat quality were also analyzed, which aimed to investigate feasibility of further breeding for diseases resistance based on M307 of FUT1 for Sutai pigs. After digested by Hin6 I, M307 of FUT1 gene could be divided into three kinds of genotypes, AA, AG, and GG. The frequencies were 0.235, 0.609, and 0.156, respectively. The results indicated that Sutai pigs with the AA genotype in M307 of FUT1 gene not only have relatively strong general disease resistance ability in piglets, but also have higher growth and development ability and stable carcass traits and meat quality. It is entirely feasible to raise the new strains of Sutai pigs resistant to Escherichia coli F18 based on genetic marker of the M307 position in FUT1gene.
