The keratins and keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) are a large heterogeneous group of proteins that make up about 90% of the cashmere fiber. Keratin-associated proteins 9.2 gene (KAP9.2) is one of the ultra high sulfur KAPs, which might play an important role in the bundling of intermediate filaments. In this study, the deletion/insertion mutation of KAP9.2 gene in 997 cashmere goat samples was firstly detected, at the same time, parts of these samples were sequenced. The results showed that two alleles were detected at this KAP9.2P1 locus, named allele W and D. The frequencies of the KAP9.2-W allele in Inner Mongolia White cashmere (n = 785) and Shaanbei White cashmere goat breeds (n = 212) were 0.878 and 0.790, respectively. The χ2-test showed that the genotype distributions in these two cashmere goat breeds were not in agreement with Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. According to the classification of polymorphism information content (PIC), Shaanbei White cashmere goat was more polymorphic at this locus. Moreover a 30 bp-deletion mutation was described at KAP9.2P2 locus for the first time and no deletion/insertion was described at KAP9.2P1 locus. The results possibly revealed that the size polymorphism existed in the two Chinese cashmere goat and the 30 bp-deletion mutation was possibly caused by variations in the number of the decapeptide repeat structures. 相似文献

It is known that keratin-associated proteins 6.2 gene (KAP6.2) is an important structural gene responsible for the cashmere. So in this study, the polymorphism of KAP6.2 gene was firstly detected by PCR-SSCP and DNA sequencing methods in 1052 cashmere goat samples. The results showed that two alleles were detected at the locus, which were named as allele O and X. Frequencies of KAP6.2-O allele in Inner Mongolia White cashmere (n = 847) and Shaanbei White cashmere goat breeds (n = 205) were 1.000 and 0.856, respectively. Inner Mongolia White cashmere goat was monomorphic at this locus, while Shaanbei White cashmere goat was at low polymorphic level. Therefore, the allele KAP6.2-X was considered as the breed characterization of Shaanbei White cashmere goat at KAP6.2 locus. Further sequencing analysis showed that a 24-bp deletion mutation was described for the first time in Shaanbei, while Inner Mongolia White cashmere goat did not have the deletion. The study indicated that deletion mutation was predicted as a possible cause for the multiple pattern cashmere in Shaanbei White cashmere goat. 相似文献

Keratin-associated proteins 9.2 (KAP9.2) gene encodes one of the ultra high sulfur KAPs. Variation in KAP genes may affect the structure of KAPs and hence cashmere characteristics. In order to test the association between the polymorphism of KAP9.2 gene and cashmere trait, DNA sequencing was used to detect a novel C/T polymorphism of KAP9.2 gene from a genomic DNA pool. The mutation could be recognized by Pst I restriction enzyme. To Shanbei white cashmere goat, Inner Mongolia white cashmere goat and Guanzhong dairy goat, the genotypic frequencies of TT, TC and CC from total 1,236 animals were as follows: 0.047, 0.519 and 0.434; 0.180, 0.592 and 0.228; 0.431, 0.544 and 0.025. The allelic frequencies of T and C were 0.307 and 0.693; 0.476 and 0.524; 0.703 and 0.297, respectively, in breeds mentioned above. The frequency of C allele between cashmere and dairy goat was significant (P?<?0.01). To provide support for the hypothesis that SNP 586 was responsible for KAP9.2 expression, quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed that the expression level of KAP9.2 was reduced in individuals bearing genotype CC compared with TT individuals, suggesting that C was the nucleotide causing decreased expression of KAP9.2 or was in linkage disequilibrium with the causative SNP. The 586C/T SNP found in this study might control translation or stability of KAP9.2 mRNA, which would be beneficial for marker assistant selection in cashmere goat breeding. 相似文献

Since mutations on POU1F1 gene possibly resulted in deficiency of GH, PRL, TSH and POU1F1, this study revealed the polymorphism of goat POU1F1-AluI locus and analyzed the distribution of alleles on 13 indigenous Chinese goat breeds. The PCR-RFLP analysis showed the predominance
of TT genotype and the frequencies of allele T varied from 0.757 to 0.976 in the analyzed populations (SBWC, Bo, XH and HM).
Further study, distributions of genotypic and allelic frequencies at this locus were found to be significantly different among
populations based on a χ2-test (P < 0.001), suggesting that the breed factor significantly affected the molecular genetic character of POU1F1 gene. The genetic diversity analysis revealed that Chinese indigenous populations had a wide spectrum of genetic diversity
in goat POU1F1-AluI locus. However, the ANOVA analysis revealed no significant differences for gene homozygosty, gene heterozygosty, effective
allele numbers and PIC (polymorphism information content) among meat, dairy and cashmere utility types (P > 0.05), suggesting that goat utility types had no significant effect on the spectrum of genetic diversity.

POU1F1 is a positive regulator for prolactin (PRL) whose metabolites may directly or indirectly affect some aspects of the
hair growth cycle, therefore, POU1F1 gene is an important candidate gene for cashmere traits selection through marker-assisted selection (MAS). Hence, in this
study, the PCR-RFLP method was applied to detect a T>C transition determining a PstI polymorphism at the 3′UTR of POU1F1 locus and evaluate its associations with cashmere traits in 847 Inner Mongolia White Cashmere goats. In the analyzed population,
the allelic frequencies for the T and C alleles are 0.959 and 0.041, respectively and the genotypic frequencies are in Hardy-Weinberg
equilibrium (P > 0.05). Moreover, significant statistical relationships between the PstI polymorphism of POU1F1 gene and goat cashmere yields were found (*P < 0.05). When compared with TC genotype, TT genotype was associated with superior cashmere yields in 2, 4, and 5 years old
individuals, as well as with average cashmere yield. Hence, TT genotype is suggested to be a molecular marker for senior cashmere
yield.

The aim of the present work was to investigate single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of growth hormone receptor (GHR) gene exon 10, characterize the genetic variation in three Chinese indigenous goat breeds, and search for its potential association
with cashmere traits. In this study, a polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR–SSCP) protocol
has been developed for rapid genotyping of the GHR gene in goats. One hundred seventy-eight goats from Liaoning Cashmere (96), Inner Mongolia White Cashmere (40), and Chengdu
Grey (42) breeds in China were genotyped at GHR locus using the protocol developed. In all goat breeds investigated, a SNP in exon 10 of GHR gene has been identified by analyzing genomic DNA. The polymorphism consists of a single nucleotide substitution A → G, resulting
in two alleles named, respectively, A and G based on the nucleotide at the position. The allele A was found to be more common
in the animals investigated, and seems to be more consistent with cattle and zebu at this polymorphic site found in goats.
The Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium of genotype distributions of GHR locus was verified in Liaoning Cashmere, and Inner Mongolia White Cashmere breeds. According to the classification of polymorphism
information content (PIC), Chengdu Grey was less polymorphic than Liaoning Cashmere and Inner Mongolia White Cashmere breeds at this locus. The phylogenetic
tree of different species based on the nucleotide sequences of GHR gene exon 10 is generally in agreement with the known species relationship. No significant association was found between
the polymorphism revealed and the cashmere traits analyzed in present work. 相似文献

As an essential repressor, the homeobox gene Hesx1/HESX1 is required within the anterior neural plate for normal forebrain development. Mutations within the Hesx1 gene have been associated with GH deficiency or combined pituitary hormone deficiency. We detected the polymorphism of Hesx1 gene by PCR-SSCP and DNA sequencing methods in 702 individuals from four Chinese cattle breeds. A novel single nucleotide
polymorphism (SNP) (IVS1 + 382T > C) was detected. The frequencies of genotype TC in four breeds were 0.000–0.222. Polymorphism
of the Hesx1 gene was shown to be associated with growth in the Nanyang breed. Individuals with genotype TC was significantly lower average
daily gain than TT at 18 months (P < 0.05). 相似文献

In this study, polymorphisms in the goat GnRHR gene exon 1 were detected by PCR-SSCP and DNA sequencing methods in 786 individuals from two different goat breeds. Two haplotypes (A and B), two observed genotypes (AA and AB), and two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected, which resulted in five amino acid substitutions. The frequencies of haplotypes A and B in the two goat breeds were 0.78–0.83 and 0.17–0.22, respectively. The SNP locus was in Hardy–Weinberg disequilibrium in the two goat breeds (P < 0.05). Polymorphisms of the GnRHR gene were shown to be associated with litter size in the two goat breeds. The SNPs in the goat GnRHR gene had significant effects on litter size (P < 0.05). Therefore, these results suggest that the GnRHR gene is a strong candidate gene that affects litter size in goat. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to search for polymorphisms in the ovine prion‐related protein (testis‐specific) gene (PRNT). Sampling included 567 sheep from eight Portuguese breeds. The PRNT gene‐coding region was analyzed by single‐strand conformation polymorphism and sequencing, allowing the identification of the first ovine PRNT polymorphisms, in codons 6, 38, 43 and 48: c.17C>T (p.Ser6Phe, which disrupts a consensus arginine‐X‐X‐serine/threonine motif); c.112G>C (p.Gly38>Arg); c.129T>C and c.144A>G (synonymous) respectively. Polymorphisms in codons 6, 38 and 48 occur simultaneously in 50.6% of the animals, 38.8% presenting as heterozygous. To study the distribution of the polymorphism in codon 43, a restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis was performed. Polymorphic variant c.129C, identified in 89.8% of the animals with 32.8% presented as heterozygous, was considered the wild genotype in Portuguese sheep. Eight different haplotypes which have comparable distribution in all breeds were identified for the PRNT gene. In conclusion, the PRNT coding region is highly polymorphic in sheep, unlike the prion protein 2 dublet gene (PRND), in which we previously found only one synonymous substitution (c.78G>A), in codon 26. The absence or reduced number of PRND heterozygotes (c.78G>A) was significantly associated with three PRNT haplotypes (17C‐112G‐129T‐144A,17CT‐112GC‐129CT‐144AG and 17T‐112C‐129C‐144G), and the only three animals found homozygous at c.78A had the 17C‐112G‐129C‐144A PRNT haplotype. These results constitute evidence of an association between polymorphic variation in PRND and PRNT genes, as has already been observed for PRND and prion protein gene (PRNP). 相似文献

Keratin-associated protein 9.2 (KAP9.2) and Homeobox C13 (Hoxc13) genes were chosen to study because of their biological functions involving hair formation. KAP9.2 gene belongs to the ultra high sulfur KAPs, which is important for hair formation and may have association with cashmere. Hoxc13 takes part in the formation of cashmere keratin and maintaining the normal structure of follicle. It has been reported that Hoxc13 gene exists binding site of KP and KAP genes at its promoter regions in mouse. So the expression of KAP9.2 and Hoxc13 genes was detected at anagen stage vs telogen stage by qRT-PCR. The data showed that KAP9.2 and Hoxc13 gene had similar expression trend at different stages, which indicated that there was interaction between them. KAP9.2 and Hoxc13 gene had lower expression level in anagen than that of in telogen of cashmere growth. In anagen, KAP9.2 and Hoxc13 expressed lower in high cashmere yield individuals than that of in low cashmere yield ones. In telogen, the result was reverse. The study would provide the evidence of involvement of KAP9.2 and Hoxc13 in hair periodic growth. 相似文献

Prion protein (PRNP) gene has been located at position q17 of chromosome 13 in cattle. The polymorphisms of PRNP gene might be associated with BSE susceptibility. In the present work, we investigated the polymorphisms of PRNP gene, including SNP in exon 3, 23-bp indel in promoter region, 12-bp indel in intron 1 in 2 Chinese indigenous cattle breeds
of northeast China. Eighty-six animals from Yanbian (34) and Chinese Red Steppes (52) were genotyped at PRNP locus by analyzing genomic DNA. A total of 4 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) sites were revealed in the PRNP gene exon 3 of the 2 cattle breeds investigated. Three of these SNPs were non-synonymous mutations that resulted in the amino
acid exchanges (K119N, S154N, and M177V), and one is silent nucleotide substitutions (A234G). The two amino acid mutations
of S154N and M177V were detected only in Yanbian with a very low frequency (0.0147), and they appears to be absent in Chinese
Red Steppes. The average gene heterozygosity (H
e), effective allele numbers (N
e), Shannon’s information index (I) and polymorphism information content (PIC) were 0.3088, 1.5013, 0.3814 and 0.2000 in Yanbian, respectively, being relatively
higher than that of Chinese Red Steppes (0.2885, 1.4985, 0.3462 and 0.1873, respectively). In 23-bp indel and 12-bp indel
loci, three different genotypes were identified in both Yanbian and Chinese Red Steppes breeds. Based 23- and 12-bp indels,
four haplotypes was constructed in the 2 Chinese cattle breeds, of which the 23-bp (−)/12-bp (−) was main haplotypes accounting
for more than 50% of the total in both Yanbian and Chinese Red Steppes breeds. These results might be useful in understanding
the genetic characteristics of PRNP gene in Chinese indigenous cattle breeds. 相似文献

Single nucleotide polymorphisms of 5?? regulatory region of follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) gene were detected in two high prolificacy sheep breeds (Small Tail Han and Hu sheep) and two low prolificacy sheep breeds (Corriedale and Chinese Merino sheep) by polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP). The results indicated that there were three genotypes (AA, AB and BB) detected by primer 1 in Hu sheep while only one genotype (AA) in other three sheep breeds, and frequencies of AA, AB and BB genotypes in Hu sheep were 0.700, 0.225 and 0.075, respectively. There were three genotypes (EE, EF and EG) detected by primer 3 in Small Tail Han sheep while only EE genotype occurred in other three sheep breeds, and frequencies of EE, EF and EG genotypes in Small Tail Han sheep were 0.775, 0.200 and 0.025, respectively. No polymorphism was detected in four sheep breeds by primer 2 and primer 4. The sequencing results showed that there were two nucleotide mutations (g. ?681T>C and g. ?629C>T) in genotype BB compared with AA for primer 1. As for primer 3, two mutations (g. ?197G>A and g. ?98T>C) in genotype EF compared with EE and two mutations (g. ?200G>A and g. ?197G>A) in genotype EG compared with EE. The heterozygous ewes with EG or EF had 0.89 (P?<?0.05) or 0.42 (P?<?0.05) lambs more than homozygous ewes (EE genotype) in Small Tail Han sheep, respectively, while there was no significant difference on litter size between EG and EF ewes. 相似文献

Objective: We analyzed the clinical features and family-related gene mutations for the first two Chinese cases of type IV Waardenburg syndrome (WS4). Methods: Two families were analyzed in this study. The analysis included a medical history, clinical analysis, a hearing test and a physical examination. In addition, the EDNRB, EDN3 and SOX10 genes were sequenced in order to identify the pathogenic mutation responsible for the WS4 observed in these patients. Results: The two WS4 cases presented with high phenotypic variability. Two novel heterozygous mutations (c.254G>A and c.698-2A>T) in the SOX10 gene were detected. The mutations identified in the patients were not found in unaffected family members or in 200 unrelated control subjects. Conclusions: This is the first report of WS4 in Chinese patients. In addition, two novel mutations in SOX10 gene have been identified. 相似文献

We performed a limited DNA sequence analysis of the CARD15 gene in 89 patients with Crohn’s disease (CD), 19 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), and three patients with indeterminate colitis (IC), who were heterozygous carriers of one of the common CARD15 mutations [c.2104C>T (p.R702W), c.2722G>C (p.G908R), or c.3019_3020insC (p.Leu1007fsX1008)], the c.2462+10A>C variant, or of a new amino acid substitution in the 3′-end of exon 4. CARD15 exons 4, 5, 6, 8, and 11 were amplified by PCR and completely sequenced, thereby theoretically covering 73.9% of the described CARD15 variants and 96.6% of the mutated alleles. Using this approach, eight novel amino acid substitutions [c.1171C>T (p.R391C), c.1387C>G (p.P463A), c.2138G>A (p.R713H), c.2278C>T (p.R760C), c.2368C>T (p.R790W), c.2371C>T (p.R791W), c.2475C>G (p.N825K), and c.2546C>T (p.A849V)] were detected in six CD and two IC patients, and one UC patient. A severe disease phenotype was observed especially in patients who are compound-heterozygous for a common and a novel CARD15 mutation.Schnitzler and Brand contributed equally 相似文献

The complete sequences of Cyt b gene from 20 individuals belonging to eight Chinese indigenous sheep breeds and one foreign breed were studied. The results showed that the hapolotype diversity of Chinese sheep breeds was 97.1%. The mean nucleotide composition of all the sequences was 27.1% T, 28.5% C, 31.4% A, and 13.0% G. The nucleotide diversity was 0.602%. A total of 43 mutation sites were detected, including 40 transitions and 3 transversions. Fu's test of selective neutrality showed that the sheep populations had no population demographic expansion (0.10 > P > 0.05). The different clustering methods, namely neighbor-joining, minimum evolution, and unweighted pair group method with arithmetic means, all showed a similar result, which indicated that Chinese local sheep had three maternal resources. 相似文献

Objective We examined the potential impact of the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor (5-HT2AR) c.1438A>G promoter polymorphism on obesity and estimates of insulin, glucose as well as lipid metabolism. Methods The genotypes and allelic frequencies of the 5-HT2AR c.1438A>G were examined with polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) in 210 patients
with overweight/obesity and 216 unrelated healthy subjects. Results The genotype (AA, AG, and GG) distribution of c.1438A>G polymorphism of the 5-HT2AR gene promoter was 35%, 46%, and 19% in patients, and 32%, 56%, 12% in controls, respectively, no significant difference
was found between two groups. Association of genetic diversity of 5-HT2AR c.1438A>G with the total body fat, fat distribution and clinical characteristics revealed that overweight/obese men carrying
G allele were associated with increased body mass index (P = 0.043), waist circumference (P = 0.038), waist-to-hip ratio (P = 0.045), in comparison with patients who carrying A allele, but there were no significant difference between the c.1438A>G
genotype groups in overweight/obese women. Conclusion No significant associations were detected. However, the present study suggests the possibility that an abnormal production
rate of the 5-HT2AR c.1438A>G gene product might lead to the development of abdominal obesity in men but not in women.

The polymorphism of mutation Q249R in BMPR-IB gene (FecB) and loci FecXI, FecXH, FecXG, FecXB in BMP15 gene was analyzed by forced PCR-RFLP method in 550 individuals from 6 flocks or breeds of goats with litter size varied from 1.4 to 2.7 including Boer (209), Haimen (128), second generation of Boer goat crossed with Huanghuai goat (82), Huanghuai (71), Nubi (37) and Matou (23) goat. None of mutations was detected in these goat breeds and their crossbreed. These results suggest that fecundity of goat is not linked to the same loci in BMPR-IB and BMP15 as sheep. Therefore, it is necessary to seek for other genes or loci in order to develop marker assistance selection techniques and study the prolific mechanism of the goat. 相似文献
