Angiogenin (ANG) [also known as ribonuclease, RNase A family, 5 (RNASE5)], ribonuclease, RNase A family, 1 (pancreatic) (RNASE1) and ribonuclease, RNase A family, k6 (RNASE6) are three members of the RNase A superfamily. It has been suggested that these three genes play important roles in host
defense. In this study, we obtained the whole open reading frame (ORF) of each gene and found the deduced proteins contain
some similar structures harboring a catalytic triad and an invariant “CKXXNTF” signature motif. One single nucleotide polymorphism
(SNP) was detected in each gene (g. 149G>T polymorphism in the porcine ANG gene, which resulted in an amino acid change from glycine to valine, g. 296A>G polymorphism in the porcine RNASE1 gene and g. 389C>T polymorphism in the porcine RNASE6 gene). Association analyses revealed the significant associations (P < 0.05) between the porcine ANG g. 149G>T polymorphism and mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean platelet volume (MPV) and
platelet-large cell ratio (P-LCR) measured on 0-day-old pigs and MCV measured at 32 days after birth. The porcine RNASE6 g. 389C>T polymorphism was significantly associated (P < 0.05) with MCV, MCH and neutrophil percentage (NEI %) measured on 0-day-old pigs, respectively. Our current findings, if
confirmed by other studies, might shed some light on the roles of the investigated genes in host defense. 相似文献

In the present study we show FISH localization of 4 porcine BAC clones harbouring potential candidate genes for fatness traits: DGAT1 (SSC4p15), PPARA (SSC5p15), ADIPOR1 (SSC10p13) and CREB (SSC15q24). Until now the CREB and ADIPOR1 genes are considered to be monomorphic, DGAT1 is highly polymorphic, while for the PPARA gene only 1 SNP was identified. Assignment of the studied genes in relation to QTL chromosome regions for meat quality in pig chromosomes SSC4, SSC5, SSC10 and SSC15 is discussed. 相似文献

In this study, two novel SNPs (EU743939:g.5174T>C in intron 4 and EU743939:g.8350C>A in intron 7) in TNNI1 and one SNP (EU696779:g.1167C>T in intron 3) in TNNI2 were identified by PCR–RFLP (PCR restriction fragment length polymorphism) using XbaI, MspI and SmaI restriction enzyme, respectively. The allele frequencies of three novel SNPs were determined in the genetically diverse
pig breeds including ten Chinese indigenous pigs and three Western commercial pig breeds. Association analysis of the SNPs
with the carcass traits were conducted in a Large White × Meishan F2 pig population. The linkage of two SNPs (g.5174T>C and g.8350C>A) in TNNI1 gene had significant effect on fat percentage. Besides these, the g.5174T>C polymorphism was also significantly associated
with skin percentage (P < 0.05), shoulder fat thickness (P < 0.05) and backfat thickness between sixth and seventh ribs (P < 0.05). The significant effects of g.1167C>T polymorphism in TNNI2 gene on fat percentage (P < 0.01), lean meat percentage (P < 0.05), lion eye area (P < 0.05), thorax–waist backfat thickness (P < 0.01) and average backfat thickness (P < 0.05) were also found. 相似文献

As a kind of E3 ligase, the product of FBXL4 gene belongs to a member of FBLs which is the biggest eukaryotic subfamily of F-BOX proteins, it can recognize some substrate
through particular protein–protein interaction domains. To investigate its functions, the polymorphism and association analysis
was analyzed. The partial cDNA of porcine FBXL4 with 2384 bp long was first cloned; the deduced protein comprises a conserved F-BOX domain at position from the 277th to
332nd amino acid. The phylogenetic tree indicated porcine FBXL4 has the closest genetic relationship with bovine FBXL4 than other selected animal species. Ten tissue expression level of porcine FBXL4 mRNA fluctuated remarkably in a large range by quantitative RT-PCR analysis. For two identified SNPs, the genotyping analysis
of Tail showed TT genotype owned dominance in introduced Landrace pig and miniature Guizhou and Wuzhishan breeds, but CC genotype
was more than two other genotypes in miniature Laiwu breed. While in another genotyping analysis of BsaJI, CC genotype was
obviously more than other genotypes in two kinds of Chinese miniature pig breeds and introduced Landrace pig breeds. Furthermore,
the association analysis with immune traits and blood parameters revealed that SNP Tail was significantly associated with
the lymphocyte percentage (P = 0.0166) and the antibody levels for pseudorabies virus vaccination (P = 0.0001) of neonate piglets at 0 day. Meanwhile, SNP BsaJI was significantly associated with lymphocyte percentage of individuals
at 32 days (P = 0.0351), neutrophil percentage (P = 0.0005), the absolute lymphocyte count (P = 0.0458), and the mixed cells (P = 0.0010) of neonate piglets at 0 day. 相似文献

Two repeated DNA sequences isolated from a partial genomic DNA library of Helianthus annuus, p HaS13 and p HaS211, were shown to represent portions of the int gene of a Ty3 /gypsy retroelement and of the RNase-Hgene of a Ty1 /copia retroelement, respectively. Southern blotting patterns obtained by hybridizing the two probes to BglII- or DraI-digested genomic DNA from different Helianthus species showed p HaS13 and p HaS211 were parts of dispersed repeats at least 8 and 7 kb in length, respectively, that were conserved in all species studied. Comparable hybridization patterns were obtained in all species with p HaS13. By contrast, the patterns obtained by hybridizing p HaS211 clearly differentiated annual species from perennials. The frequencies of p HaS13- and p HaS211-related sequences in different species were 4.3x10(4)-1.3x10(5) copies and 9.9x10(2)-8.1x10(3) copies per picogram of DNA, respectively. The frequency of p HaS13-related sequences varied widely within annual species, while no significant difference was observed among perennial species. Conversely, the frequency variation of p HaS211-related sequences was as large within annual species as within perennials. Sequences of both families were found to be dispersed along the length of all chromosomes in all species studied. However, Ty3 /gypsy-like sequences were localized preferentially at the centromeric regions, whereas Ty1/ copia-like sequences were less represented or absent around the centromeres and plentiful at the chromosome ends. These findings suggest that the two sequence families played a role in Helianthusgenome evolution and species divergence, evolved independently in the same genomic backgrounds and in annual or perennial species, and acquired different possible functions in the host genomes. 相似文献

A lesion-mimic phenotype appeared in a segregating population of common wheat cross Yanzhan 1/Zaosui 30. The parents had non-lesion
normal phenotypes. Shading treatment and histochemical analyses showed that the lesions were caused by light-dependent cell
death and were not associated with pathogens. Studies over two cropping seasons showed that some lines with more highly expressed
lesion-mimic phenotypes exhibited significantly lower grain yields than those with the normal phenotype, but there were no
significant effects in the lines with weakly expressed lesion-mimic phenotypes. Among yield traits, one-thousand grain weight
was the most affected by lesion-mimic phenotypes. Genetic analysis indicated that this was a novel type of lesion mimic, which
was caused by interaction of recessive genes derived from each parent. The lm1 (lesion
mimic
1) locus from Zaosui 30 was flanked by microsatellite markers Xwmc674 and Xbarc133/Xbarc147 on chromosome 3BS, at genetic distances of 1.2 and 3.8 cM, respectively, whereas lm2 from Yanzhan 1 was mapped between microsatellite markers Xgwm513 and Xksum154 on chromosome 4BL, at genetic distances of 1.5 and 3 cM, respectively. The linked microsatellite makers identified in this
study might be useful for evaluating whether potential parents with normal phenotype are carriers of lesion-mimic alleles. 相似文献

The maT clade of transposons is a group of transposable elements intermediate in sequence and predicted protein structure to mariner and Tc transposons, with a distribution thus far limited to a few invertebrate species. We present evidence, based on searches of publicly available databases, that the nematode Caenorhabditis briggsae has several maT-like transposons, which we have designated as CbmaT elements, dispersed throughout its genome. We also describe two additional transposon sequences that probably share their evolutionary history with the CbmaT transposons. One resembles a fold back variant of a CbmaT element, with long (380-bp) inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) that show a high degree (71%) of identity to CbmaT1. The other, which shares only the 26-bp ITR sequences with one of the CbmaT variants, is present in eight nearly identical copies, but does not have a transposase gene and may therefore be cross mobilised by a CbmaT transposase. Using PCR-based mobility assays, we show that CbmaT1 transposons are capable of excising from the C. briggsae genome. CbmaT1 excised approximately 500 times less frequently than Tcb1 in the reference strain AF16, but both CbmaT1 and Tcb1 excised at extremely high frequencies in the HK105 strain. The HK105 strain also exhibited a high frequency of spontaneous induction of unc-22 mutants, suggesting that it may be a mutator strain of C. briggsae. 相似文献

The plasma membrane transport proteins belong to SoLute Carrier 15 (SLC15) family and two members of this family have been
characterized extensively in higher vertebrates, namely PEPT1 and PEPT2. Despite many efforts have made to define a pharmacophore
model for efficient binding and transporting of substrates, there is not a comprehensive study performed to elucidate the
evolutionary mechanisms among the SLC15 family members and to statistically evaluate sequence conservation and functional
divergence between members. In this study, we compared and contrasted the rates and patterns of molecular evolution of 2 PEPT genes. Phylogenetic tree assembly with all available vertebrate PEPTs suggests that the PEPTs originated by duplications and diverged from a common protein at the base of the eukaryotic tree. Topological structure demonstrates
both members share the similar hydrophobic domains (TMDs), which have been constrained by purifying selection. Although both
genes show qualitatively similar patterns, their rates of evolution differ significantly due to an increased rate of synonymous
substitutions in the structural domains in one copy, suggesting substantial differences in functional constraint on each gene.
Site-specific profiles were established by posterior probability analysis revealing significantly divergent regions mainly
locate at the hydrophobic region between predicted transmembrane domains 9 and 10 of the proteins. Thus, these results provide
the evidence that several amino acid residues with reduced selective constraints are largely responsible for functional divergence
between the paralogous PEPTs. These findings may provide a starting point for further experimental verifications. 相似文献

DLK1 and CLPG were located in DLK1-GTL2 imprinted cluster. They all affected muscle growth and meat tenderness. The functional importance of DLK1 and CLPG imply that the variation of the genes could affect the growth traits of animal. PCR-SSCP and sequencing were used to analyze
the four loci of DLK1 gene and CLPG gene in 1109 individuals, which belong to eight breeds/species of bovidae, including cattle, buffalo and yak. A synonymous
mutation (C451T) was detected in exon 5 of DLK1 in Qinchuan cattle, but didn’t change significantly with phenotypic traits. Three genotypes AA, AB and AC of CLPG were identified in Jiaxian cattle. The associations analyst of different genotypes showed that the individuals with genotypes
AA and AC had a greater body weight and longer body length than those with genotype AB (P < 0.05 and P < 0.01, respectively); the AA individuals were different from those AB (P < 0.05) in the circumference of cannon bone. No polymorphism was observed in the other populations at other loci. These results
were in agreement with the homology analysis: DLK1 and CLPG genes were in a highly conserved. 相似文献

Genetic analysis of resistance to leaf rust in rye (Puccinia recondita f. sp. secalis) led to the identification of two dominant resistance genes, Pr1 and Pr2. Both genes proved to be effective against a local leaf-rust population as well as a subset of single-pustule isolates (SPIs) the latter of which comprised SPIs with very high virulence complexity. Resistance conferred by Pr1 and Pr2 was expressed in detached-leaf tests of seedlings as well as in field tests of adult plants. Molecular marker analysis allowed us to map Pr1 in the proximal part of rye chromosome 6RL, whereas Pr2 was assigned to the distal part of chromosome 7RL. These results are discussed in view of homoeology relationships among Triticeae. A proposal is submitted for the designation of resistance genes to rye leaf rust which would avoid interference with existing gene-symboling in respect to wheat leaf-rust resistances introgressed from rye into wheat or triticale. 相似文献

CRP3 is the muscle-specific form of the cysteine and glycine-rich protein family and plays an important role in myofiber differentiation.
Here we isolated and characterized its coding gene CSRP3 from porcine muscle. Phylogenic analyses demonstrated that CSRP3 diverged first and is distinguished from two other members, CSRP1 and CSRP2. CSRP3 mRNA was up-regulated during the development of porcine embryonic skeletal muscle, indicating its potential importance in
muscle growth. Genetic variant analyses detected multiple variations in an approximately 400 bp region covering exon 4 and
its downstream intron, and two haplotypes were identified by sequencing. One of synonymous substitutions C1924T was used for
linkage and association analyses. It was revealed that the substitution of C1924T had significant associations with firmness
(P < 0.01), Lab Loin pH, Off Flavor Score and Water Holding Capacity (P < 0.05), and a suggestive effect (P < 0.1) on Flavor Score and Average Glycolytic Potential in a Berkshire × Yorkshire F2 population. The association analyses
results agreed with the gene’s localization to a QTL region for meat quality traits on porcine chromosome 2p14-17 demonstrated
by both linkage mapping and RH mapping. These results provide fundamental evidence for CSRP3 as a functional candidate gene affecting pig meat quality. 相似文献

Three constructs harbouring novel Bacillus thuringiensis genes (Cry1C, Cry2A, Cry9C) and bar gene were transformed into four upland cotton cultivars, Ekangmian10, Emian22, Coker201 and YZ1 via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. With the bar gene as a selectable marker, about 84.8 % of resistant calli have been confirmed positive by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
tests, and totally 50 transgenic plants were regenerated. The insertions were verified by means of Southern blotting. Bioassay
showed 80 % of the transgenic plantlets generated resistance to both herbicide and insect. We optimized conditions for improving
the transformation efficiency. A modified in vitro shoot-tip grafting technique was introduced to help entire transplantation. This result showed that bar gene can replace antibiotic marker genes (ex. npt II gene) used in cotton transformation. 相似文献

Recently, the prenyltransferase SirD was found to be responsible for the O-prenylation of tyrosine in the biosynthesis of sirodesmin PL in Leptosphaeria maculans. In this study, the behavior of SirD towards phenylalanine/tyrosine and tryptophan derivatives was investigated. Product
formation has been observed with 12 of 19 phenylalanine/tyrosine derivatives. It was shown that the alanine structure attached
to the benzene ring and an electron donor, e.g., OH or NH2, at its para-position are essential for the enzyme activity. Modifications were possible both at the side chain and the benzene ring.
Enzyme products from seven phenylalanine/tyrosine derivatives were isolated and characterized by MS and NMR analyses including
HSQC and HMBC and proven to be O- or N-prenylated derivatives at position C4 of the benzene rings. K
M
values of six selected derivatives were found in the range of 0.10–0.68 mM. Catalytic efficiencies (K
cat/K
M
) were determined in the range of 430–1,110 s−1·M−1 with l-tyrosine as the best substrate. In addition, 7 of 14 tested tryptophan analogs were also accepted by SirD and converted to
C7-prenylated derivatives, which was confirmed by comparison with products obtained from enzyme assays using a 7-dimethylallyltryptophan
synthase 7-DMATS from Aspergillus fumigatus. 相似文献

Studying Pneumocystis has proven to be a challenge from the perspective of propagating a significant amount of the pathogen in a facile manner.
The study of several fungal pathogens has been aided by the use of invertebrate model hosts. Our efforts to infect the invertebrate
larvae Galleria
mellonella with Pneumocystis proved futile since P. murina neither caused disease nor was able to proliferate within G. mellonella. It did, however, show that the pathogen could be rapidly cleared from the host. 相似文献
