Eleven apparent mutations of the equine plasma transferrin and esterase gene (10 in TF and one in ES ) were found in an analysis of approximately 240000 thoroughbred horses. Eight of the transferrin mutations produced variants not previously recognized in horses. In the two remaining transferrin mutations and the esterase mutation, reduced plasma concentrations of the proteins were demonstrated by immunological techniques and together with the family data indicated the existence of 'null' alleles. 相似文献

A single nucleotide polymorphism was identified in the coding sequence of the bovine transferrin gene. Two alleles (SSCP1 and SSCP2) were detected by SSCP analysis and the mutation point was identified and confirmed by direct sequencing of the PCR products. The relationship between protein and DNA polymorphism was established. Protein variants A, D1 and E correspond to SSCP allele 1 and variant D2 corresponds to SSCP allele 2. DNA sequences from genotypes AA, AE, AD2, D1E, D2E and D2D2 reveal an A/G substitution at position 1455 of the cDNA which causes a Gly/Glu substitution which could be responsible for the mobility difference between D1 and D2 variants. Because of the number of variants, this suggests that other SNPs exist in the bovine transferrin gene. A linkage analysis between the SSCPs and two microsatellites (UWCA46 and CSSM019) mapped the transferrin gene to BTA1. Two-point analysis revealed a tight linkage within the transferrin protein variants and the SSCPs. 相似文献

Genetic studies of blood markers in Przewalski's horses 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Ninety-six Przewalski's horses (Equus przewalskii) were blood typed using systems of inherited blood variants known to be highly effective for parentage testing of domestic horses (E. caballus). Sixteen red cell antigenic factors detected using sera prepared by alloimmunization of domestic horses were shown to be inherited in six systems (A, C, D, P, Q, and U) and in the same patterns as domestic horses. Family data confirmed autosomal, codominant inheritance at five loci of serum protein variants (Al, Tf, Xk, Pi, and Es) and three loci of red cell proteins (PGM, PHI, and Hb). One serum protein locus (Gc) and two red cell protein loci (PGD and CA) appeared to be monomorphic. Despite the narrow genetic base and high inbreeding coefficients of captive Przewalski's horses, average heterozygosity calculated over 18 loci was estimated to be 0.320 +/- 0.05, which was similar to that found in five breeds of domestic horses. 相似文献

Various electrophoretic techniques, immunoblotting and inhibitions of trypsin and chymotrypsin were used to study the variability of serum proteins in farmed red deer, Cervus elaphus L., of Czechoslovakian origin. Easily interpretable polymorphisms were observed in transferrin (variants A, B1, B2, C) and vitamin D binding protein, GC (variants D, F, I, S). Great variability was observed in the protease inhibitors PI2, PI3, PI4, PI5, and PI8 and in unidentified zones in the vicinity of albumin, but no genetical or physiological interpretation for this variability is yet available. Haemopexin, alpha 1 glycoprotein, protease inhibitors PI1, PI6 and PI7 were monomorphic. 相似文献

The plasma protease inhibitor system (Pi) of Standardbred horses 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The plasma protease inhibitor system (Pi) of Standardbred horses was studied by thin-layer, high-voltage, acid polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (pH 4.6) followed by protein staining and staining for trypsin and chymotrypsin inhibition. In addition to the eight Thoroughbred alleles (PiF, G, I, L, N, S1, S2, U), another 10 alleles, designated PiH, J, K, O, P, Q, R, V, X, Z, were postulated to account for the 98 Pi types which were observed in Standardbreds. Detailed inhibitory spectra of the 'new' alleles were determined and further exceptions to the Pi1, Pi2 classification of Juneja et al. (1979) were found. Limited family data demonstrated the genetic nature of the 'new' variants and confirmed the allelic inheritance of the 'new' Pi variants. 相似文献

Two-dimensional agarose gel (pH 8.6)-horizontal polyacrylamide gel (pH 9.0) electrophoresis of horse serum samples, followed by general protein staining, revealed genetic polymorphism of an unidentified protein tentatively designated serum protein 3 (SP3). The SP3 fractions appeared distinctly when a 14% concentration of acrylamide was used in the separation gels. The 2-D mobilities of SP3 fractions were quite similar to that of albumin. Family data were consistent with the hypothesis that the observed SP3 phenotypes were controlled by four co-dominant, autosomal alleles (D, F, I, S). Evidence was provided that the F allele can be further divided into two alleles (F1 and F2); the mobilities of F1 and F2 variants were very similar. Each of the SP3 alleles gave rise to one fraction and each of the heterozygous types showed two fractions. More than 600 horses representing five different breeds (Swedish Trotter, North-Swedish Trotter, Thoroughbred, Arab and Polish Tarpan) were typed for SP3, and allele frequency estimates were calculated. SP3 was highly polymorphic in all breeds studied. 相似文献

The prt gene which is linked to the rabbit immunoglobulin kappa-light chain gene, ab, has two phenotypes, PRT+ and PRT-. These phenotypes can be distinguished only when serum proteins from different rabbits are separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The serum protein profiles for PRT+ rabbits show a band that is located on the anodal side of transferrin. This band is missing in the serum profiles of PRT- rabbits. However, the PRT protein is present in these rabbits. An antiserum which reacts with PRT from PRT+ rabbits detects two electrophoretic variants of PRT which are located in areas of the polyacrylamide gel obscured by other serum proteins. These results and other suggest that the prt gene has three alleles, the prta allele encoding the protein found in PRT+ rabbits and the prtb and prtc alleles encoding the two electrophoretic variants found in PRT- rabbits. 相似文献

Genetic variants at eight blood loci were analysed, disclosing in Andalusian breed six rare markers: variants J of transferrin, H of esterase, D and S of Xk, M and W of prealbumin. Two of these, TfJ and PrM appear as characteristic markers of Andalusian breed. Allelic frequencies showed minor differences between Spanish (300 horses) and Lusitanian (100 horses) populations. Comparison was established with historically related breeds, Thoroughbreds or Connemara, and with Arab horses because of a presumed relationship. No visible similarities in genetic profiles were found with two former breeds, nor with Arab horses. Unpredicted similarities were found however between Tarpans and Andalusian horses, appearing rather as convergences than witnessing a common ancestry. 相似文献

Interspecific genetic variation in populations of red king crab Paralithodes camtschaticus Tilesius (Litholidae, Decapoda: Crustacea) was examined using allozyme markers. The activity of 57 enzymes and the general protein presumably encoded by 92 loci was detected. The level of allozyme variability was low: the expected heterozygosity and the proportion of polymorphic loci were respectively 0.027 +/- 0.008 and 6.5%. This level of heterozygosity is three times lower than the average value for 122 crustacean species (0.082 +/- 0.007). Although genetic variants were found at 22 loci, their frequencies were generally low: only in loci 6-Pgd, Alp-1, and Pep-1 did the frequencies of the most common alleles not exceed 0.9. All polymorphic loci except one had two alleles; the exception was 6-Pgd, which had three alleles. The possible reasons for the low level of allozyme variability in red king crab are discussed. 相似文献

A simple method of horizontal polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was described for the simultaneous phenotyping of transferrin, post-transferrin, albumin and post-albumin in the blood plasma of cattle. A step gradient gel of 8, 4, 12 and 14% acrylamide concentration was used. The method enabled the detection of a new protein polymorphism in the post-transferrin region. Two alleles were observed. The transferrin phenotypes involving D1 and D2 alleles were clearly separated. The resolution of the post-albumin fractions was also better than described by earlier methods. 相似文献

The mu opioid receptor (MOR) plays a central role in mediating acute and chronic effects of narcotic drugs. Three rare single nucleotide polymorphisms in the hMOR gene have been identified that cause amino acid substitutions in the third intracellular (i3) loop of MOR (R260H, R265H, and S268P). Genotyping 252 individuals of the Coriell collection identified one allele encoding the R265H-MOR variant and a new variant encoding D274N-MOR. Variants R260H-, R265H-, and S268P-MOR were constructed and transfected into HEK293 cells. Morphine stimulated G protein coupling of the three receptor variants to a maximal level approaching that of wild type MOR. In contrast, spontaneous, agonist-independent (basal) MOR signaling, proposed to play a role in opioid tolerance and dependence, was significantly reduced for R260H- and R265H-MOR. Moreover, domains within the i3 loop of MOR have been shown to interact with both G proteins and calmodulin (CaM). CaM binding was deficient for variants R265H- and S268P-MOR, suggesting that domains for G protein coupling and CaM binding overlap partially. Morphine pretreatment significantly enhanced basal G protein coupling of wild type MOR, which is thought to result from release of CaM. In contrast basal G protein coupling activity of the three variants was unaffected by morphine pretreatment consistent with diminished CaM regulation, low basal activity, or both. In conclusion, each of the three single nucleotide polymorphisms mapping to the i3 loop of MOR caused substantial changes in basal G protein coupling, CaM binding, or both. Carriers of the mutant alleles might display altered responses to narcotic analgesics. 相似文献

Horizontal polyacrylamide gel electrophoreses, on 10% separation gel, of horse serum revealed polymorphism of the vitamin D binding protein (Gc protein) and another post-albumin protein (Pa). Family data supported the hypothesis that Gc and Pa types were controlled by autosomal codominant alleles. For both Gc and Pa proteins, the homozygous types showed a single fraction while the heterozygous type had two fractions. Pa types were found to be identical to the post-albumin types reported earlier by starch gel electrophoresis. Two Gc alleles, GcF and GcS, and three Pa alleles, Pa D, Pa F and Pa S, were observed in samples from Swedish (four breeds), Lipizzaner and Arab horses. The frequency of the more common allele at the two loci, i.e. GcF and PaF, ranged from 0.72-0.93 and from 0.58-0.99, respectively, in the different breeds studied. Plasma samples showed an extra protein fraction near the GcS fraction and thus were found unsuitable for Gc typing. 相似文献

Vitamin D-binding protein (DBP) of crab-eating macaques (Macaca fascicularis) was examined by means of three electrophoretic methods. DBP phenotypes were observed to be one or two bands in each method. All of DBP molecular variants could be detected by the simultaneous typing with these three methods. Family analysis suggested that DBP variants followed the mode of autosomal codominant inheritance. A total of 17 phenotypes governed by at least 11 alleles were observed in the populations of Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. The genetic variability was high in Malaysian and Indonesian populations but low in the Philippine population. 相似文献

Two-dimensional agarose gel (pH 8.6)-horizontal polyacrylamide gel (pH 9.0) electrophoresis of horse serum proteins revealed genetic polymorphism of ceruloplasmin (Cp) and two unidentified serum proteins tentatively designated serum protein 1 (SP1) and serum protein 2 (SP2). Family data were consistent with the hypothesis that the observed Cp and SP1 phenotypes were each controlled by two co-dominant, autosornal alleles. The three common SP2 phenotypes were shown to be controlled by two codominant, autosomal alleles. Population data and limited family data indicated the occurrence of two additional SP2 alleles. Altogether more than 600 horses representing 13 different breeds were typed for Cp, SP1 and SP2, and allele frequency estimates were calculated. SP2 was highly polymorphic in all breeds studied whereas SP1 and Cp showed quite low degrees of polymorphism. SP1 polymorphism was observed in seven breeds while Cp polymorphism was observed only in the Icelandic toelter horse breed. 相似文献

Chondrodysplastic dwarfism in Miniature horses appeared to be a recessive genetic trait based on the occurrence of affected offspring by normal parents. Dwarf phenotypes vary and range from abnormal abortuses to viable offspring with evidence of skeletal dysplasia. A genome‐wide association study implicated a region of ECA1 with dwarfism in Miniature horses. Aggrecan (ACAN) was a candidate gene in that region, and exons were sequenced to compare DNA sequences for dwarf and non‐dwarf horses. Sequencing led to the discovery of variants in exons 2, 6, 7 and 15 associated with dwarfism. The four variants are identified with reference to Ecab 3.0 (GCF_002863925.1) as g.95291270del (rs1095048841), g.95284530C>T (ERP107353), g.95282140C>G (rs1095048823) and g.95257480_95257500del (rs1095048839) and designated here as D1, D2, D3* and D4 respectively. A previous study at another laboratory reported dwarfism associated with homozygosity for D3*. Homozygotes for those variants and compound heterozygotes for any combination of those variants always expressed a dwarfism phenotype. However, eight additional horses with dwarfism were found, seven of which were heterozygotes for D2, D3* or D4, suggesting the existence of additional ACAN alleles causing dwarfism. Among Miniature horses, the combined frequency of D1, D2, D3* and D4 was 0.163, suggesting a carrier rate of 26.2% for alleles causing chondrodysplastic dwarfism. 相似文献

Summary. Transferrin variants were examined in population samples of fish, locally known as jaraquis, Semaprochilodus taeniurus and 5. insignis. Both species were sampled on two occasions from two geographical areas in the Amazon region. The two species showed no common transferrin type. The 122 specimens of S. taeniurus showed three genotypes encoded by two codominant alleles at the transferrin gene locus ( Tf ). The 69 specimens of S. insignis showed another two transferrin alleles. Hence the different Tf genotypes support their taxonomic differences, and are predictably capable of identifying any suspected hybrid species. No hybrid was found. 相似文献

Levels of nucleotide polymorphism in three paralogous Drosophila simulans genes, janusA (janA), janusB (janB), and ocnus (ocn), were surveyed by DNA sequencing. The three genes lie in tandem within a 2.5-kb region of chromosome arm 3R. In a sample of eight alleles from a worldwide distribution we found a significant departure from neutrality by several statistical tests. The most striking feature of this sample was that in a 1.7-kb region containing the janA and janB genes, 30 out of 31 segregating sites contained variants present only once in the sample, and 29 of these unique variants were found in the same allele. A restriction survey of an additional 28 lines of D. simulans revealed strong linkage disequilibrium over the janA-janB region and identified six more alleles matching the rare haplotype. Among the rare alleles, the level of DNA sequence variation was typical for D. simulans autosomal genes and showed no departure from neutrality. In addition, the rare haplotype was more similar to the D. melanogaster sequence, indicating that it was the ancestral form. These results suggest that the derived haplotype has risen to high worldwide frequency relatively recently, most likely as a result of natural selection. 相似文献
