Association of polymorphism in the promotor area of the caprine BMPR1B gene with litter size and body measurement traits in Damani goats. Trop Anim Health Prod 2024; 56:137.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore polymorphisms in the promoter region of the caprine BMPR1B (Bone morphogenetic protein receptor 1 beta) gene and its association with body measurement and litter size traits in Damani does. A total of 53 blood samples were collected to analyze the association between the BMPR1B gene polymorphism and 11 phenotypic traits in Damani female goats. The results revealed that three novel SNPs were identified in the promoter region of the caprine BMPR1B gene, including g.67 A > C (SNP1), g.170 G > A(SNP2), and g.501A > T (SNP3), among which the SNP1 and SNP2 were significantly (p < 0.05) associated with litter size and body measurement traits in Damani goats. In SNP1 the AC genotype could be used as a marker for litter size, and the CC genotype for body weight in Damani goats. In SNP2, the genotype GG was significantly (p < 0.05) associated with ear and head length. Therefore, we can conclude from the present study, that genetic variants AC and CC of the caprine BMPR1B gene could be used as genetic markers for economic traits through marker-assisted selection for the breed improvement program of the Damani goat.

DOKL BIOCHEM BIOPHYS 2022; 503:108-111. [PMID: 35538289 PMCID: PMC9090674 DOI: 10.1134/s1607672922020107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2021] [Revised: 01/17/2022] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
The emergence of new genes and functions is of paramount importance in the emergence of new animal species. For example, the insertion of the mobile element Tigger 2 into the sequence of the functional gene POU2F1 in primates led to the formation of a new chimeric primate-specific isoform POU2F1Z, the translation of which is activated under cellular stress. Its mRNA was found in all species of monkeys, starting with macaques. Analysis of the fragments of the Tigger2 copy corresponding to the human exon Z showed that the splicing sites of exon Z are homologous in humans and in most monkeys, with the exception of lemurs and galagos. The stop codon introduced into the mRNA by the Tigger2 sequence is present in all primates, starting with macaques. The internal ATG codon is also present in all primates, with the exception of lemurs and galagos. In the course of evolution, other MGEs, mainly of the SINE type, were inserted into the Tigger2 copy. In the course of evolution, both the location and the number of mobile SINE elements within the POU2F1 gene changed. Starting with macaques, the pattern of the arrangement of SINE elements within the Tigger2 copy in the studied region of the POU2F1 gene was fixed and then remained unchanged in other primates and humans, which may indicate its functional significance.
