Abstract: | We described a procedure for multiple genotype analysis (determination of sex and of three genetic markers) from a single cell derived from bovine preimplantation embryo. It consists of primer extension preamplification-polymerase chain reaction (PEP-PCR) and subsequent single assay or multiplex PCR. A single blastomere that was isolated by microaspiration from bovine embryos at the 16- to 32-cell stage then was lysed and was subjected to the PEP-PCR. When testing 75 embryos, efficiency of genotyping by standard PCR for kappa-casein, growth hormone (GH) and prolactin (PRL) polymorphic alleles was 91, 88 and 89%, respectively. Sexing efficiency in the multiplex PCR was 91%, based on the amplification of Y-specific locus using kappa-casein internal standard. The microaspiration of a single blastomere was shown not to be invasive for the embryos. It did not alter their development potential in vitro (P > 0.05), as was seen by obtaining a similar percentage of embryos developing further into the blastocyst stage in the group subjected to biopsy (44/75, 59%) and in the control group of embryos (30/50, 60%). |
