The goal of this study was to identify and map genes expressed during the elongation phase of embryogenesis in swine. Expressed sequence tags were analysed from a previously described porcine cDNA library prepared from elongating swine embryos. Average insert length of randomly selected clones was approximately 600 bp, with a range from < 100 to > 2500 bp. Single-pass, coding strand sequences from 1132 independent clones were compared with the GenBank non-redundant (nr) database via BLASTN analysis to identify potential porcine homologous of known genes. Among these sequences, 781 (69%) showed significant (score > 300) homology to non- mitochondrial sequences previously deposited in GenBank. Sequences matching interleucin 1 beta and thymosin beta 10 were most frequently observed (24 and 18 clones, respectively), in addition to matches with 310 other distinct genes. No significant match in the GenBank nr database was obtained for 303 sequences. Analysis demonstrated that 151 (50%) had open reading frames (ORF) extending at least 50 codons from the first base of the clone insert. Genetic markers were developed and used to map a subset of 17 genes, selected on the basis of function or of the ability to design primers that successfully amplified porcine genomic DNA, to 10 different porcine chromosomes, providing a set of mapped markers corresponding to genes expressed during conceptus elongation. 相似文献

In this study we successfully constructed a full-length cDNA library from Siberian tiger, Panthera tigris altaica, the most well-known wild Animal. Total RNA was extracted from cultured Siberian tiger fibroblasts in vitro. The titers of primary and amplified libraries were 1.30×10(6) pfu/ml and 1.62×10(9) pfu/ml respectively. The proportion of recombinants from unamplified library was 90.5% and average length of exogenous inserts was 1.13 kb. A total of 282 individual ESTs with sizes ranging from 328 to 1,142 bps were then analyzed the BLASTX score revealed that 53.9% of the sequences were classified as strong match, 38.6% as nominal and 7.4% as weak match. 28.0% of them were found to be related to enzyme/catalytic protein, 20.9% ESTs to metabolism, 13.1% ESTs to transport, 12.1% ESTs to signal transducer/cell communication, 9.9% ESTs to structure protein, 3.9% ESTs to immunity protein/defense metabolism, 3.2% ESTs to cell cycle, and 8.9 ESTs classified as novel genes. These results demonstrated that the reliability and representativeness of the cDNA library attained to the requirements of a standard cDNA library. This library provided a useful platform for the functional genomic research of Siberian tigers. 相似文献

The pineal gland is the circadian oscillator in the chicken, regulating diverse functions ranging from egg laying to feeding. Here, we describe the isolation and characterization of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) isolated from a chicken pineal gland cDNA library. A total of 192 unique sequences were analysed and submitted to GenBank; 6% of the ESTs matched neither GenBank cDNA sequences nor the newly assembled chicken genomic DNA sequence, three ESTs aligned with sequences designated to be on the Z_random, while one matched a W chromosome sequence and could be useful in cataloguing functionally important genes on this sex chromosome. Additionally, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified and validated in 10 ESTs that showed 98% or higher sequence similarity to known chicken genes. Here, we have described resources that may be useful in comparative and functional genomic analysis of genes expressed in an important organ, the pineal gland, in a model and agriculturally important organism. 相似文献

Complementary DNA sequences were selected from a resource of tentatively identified clones from a porcine small intestine
cDNA library. Forty PCR primer pairs were designed to amplify 101–309 base pairs of the 3′ untranslated region of the genes.
The PCR conditions were optimized by altering both formamide and magnesium concentrations on samples of pig, mouse, and hamster
DNA. Twenty primer pairs that, under stringent conditions, were pig-specific and amplified the expected fragments were chosen
for regional assignment in a pig/rodent hybrid cell panel. Furthermore, 22 primer pairs were chosen to amplify DNA from the
parental animals of the PiGMaP shared reference families in order to detect possible polymorphisms. Primer pairs that generated
polymorphisms were used for genetic mapping. A total of 22 porcine expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were cytogenetically or
genetically mapped by this approach. Twelve of the mapped ESTs could be added to the human–porcine comparative map.

Perilla (Perilla frutescens), an herbal plant belonging to the Lamiaceae family, has long been cultivated in Asia. Perilla is notable as an aroma-rich leaf vegetable and as the oilseed crop richest in omega-3 fatty acids. However, molecular analysis of this herbal plant is lacking due to insufficient genetic resources. Here, we constructed a normalized cDNA library from whole young perilla plants and analyzed expressed sequence tags (ESTs). A total of 4,582 uniESTs were generated from analysis of 5,435 ESTs. Among these, 307 uniESTs (6.7%) were identified as unique in perilla and 3,625 uniESTs were assigned at least one GO term through similarity searches in public databases. The most frequent GO terms were related to abiotic and biotic stress responses. In addition, we identified 141 uniESTs involved in lipid metabolism, of which four genes encoded fatty acid desaturases. We found one new candidate omega-3 fatty acid desaturase gene, in addition to the four that were previously reported. This analysis of uniESTs from perilla provides a valuable genetic resource to elucidate the molecular underpinnings of lipid metabolism and for molecular breeding of perilla species. 相似文献

Expressed sequence tags from a NaCl-treated Suaeda salsa cDNA library 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
Past efforts to improve plant tolerance to osmotic stress have had limited success owing to the genetic complexity of stress responses. The first step towards cataloging and categorizing genetically complex abotic stress responses is the rapid discovery of genes by the large-scale partial sequencing of randomly selected cDNA clones or expressed sequence tags (ESTs). Suaeda salsa, which can survive seawater-level salinity, is a favorite halophytic model for salt tolerant research. We constructed a NaCl-treated cDNA library of Suaeda salsa and sequenced 1048 randomly selected clones, out of which 1016 clones produced readable sequences (773 showed homology to previously identified genes, 227 matched unknown protein coding regions, 16 anomalous sequences or sequences of bacterial origin were excluded from further analysis). By sequence analysis we identified 492 unique clones: 315 showed homology to previously identified genes, 177 matched unknown protein coding regions (101 of which have been found before in other organisms and 76 are completely novel). All our EST data are available on the Internet. We believe that our dbEST and the associated DNA materials will be a useful source to scientists engaging in stress-tolerance study. 相似文献

Chinese sturgeon Acipenser sinensis belongs to the family Acipenseridae, an ancient species of actinopterygian fishes. In order to advance molecular research on its reproduction, ontogenetic development, we were seeking for genomic information in the NCBI expressed sequence tag (EST database). We found 3384 indentified cDNA sequences which were assembled into 861 unigenes. Blast analysis revealed 301 unigenes shared high similarity with genes in the public databases, and these were classified into three groups: 202 known genes, 81 putative genes and 8 unknown genes. The remainder (560 genes) had no significant match to any protein sequence. Further, 255 unigenes and 333 unmatched unigenes were annotated with Gene Ontology (GO), which could be classified into cellular component, molecular function, and biological process. Among the known genes, the hormone genes pomc A (proopiomelanocortin), pomc B, GtH alpha I subunit (gonadotropin hormone), GtH alpha II subunit and GH (growth hormone) were present in this library. Comparison of the Chinese sturgeon proteins (GH, GtH alpha subunit and POMC) to proteins of other species showed higher levels of homology among sturgeon species. We performed five hormone related genes including GnRHRI (gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor I), cpH (carboxypeptidase H), ppiB (peptidylprolyl isomerase B), stmn3 (stathmin-like 3), 7B2 (neuroendocrine protein 7B2), and four novel genes (contig 192, 177, 170 and 168) a semi-quantitative RT-PCR on different tissues from Chinese sturgeon. 相似文献

Partial cDNA sequencing was used to obtain 169 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) in the moss, Physcomitrella patens. The source of ESTs was a random cDNA library constructed from 7 day-old protonemata following treatment with 10(-4) M abscisic acid (ABA). Analysis of the ESTs identified 69% with homology to known sequences, 61% of which had significant homology to sequences of plant origin. More importantly, at least 11 ESTs had significant similarities to genes which are implicated in plant stress-responses, including responses which may involve ABA. These included a cDNA associated with desiccation tolerance, two heat shock protein genes, one cold acclimation protein cDNA and five others that may be involved in either oxidative or chemical stress or both, i.e., Zn/Cu-superoxide dismutase, NADPH protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (PorB), selenium binding protein, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione S transferase. Analysis of codon usage between P. patens and seed plants indicated that although mosses and higher plants are to a large extent similar, minor variations also exists that may represent the distinctiveness of each group. 相似文献
