Weak purifying selection in allelic diversity of the ADSL gene in indigenous and local chicken breeds and red junglefowl in Thailand. Gene 2024; 923:148587.

Abstract
High levels of purine and uric acid, which are associated with health issues such as gout and cardiovascular disease, are found in the meat of fast-growing broiler chickens, which raises concerns about the quality of chicken meat and the health of the consumers who consume it. High genetic homogeneity and uniformity, particularly in genes involved in the synthesis of inosine monophosphate (IMP) and subsequent process of purine synthesis, which are associated with the meat quality, are exhibited in commercial broiler chickens owing to intensive inbreeding programs. Adenosine succinate lyase (ADSL) is a key enzyme involved in de novo purine biosynthetic pathway and its genetic polymorphisms affect IMP metabolism and purine content. In this study, we investigated the polymorphism of the ADSL gene in indigenous and local chicken breeds and red junglefowl in Thailand, using metabarcoding and genetic diversity analyses. Five alleles with 73 single nucleotide polymorphisms in exon 2, including missense and silent mutations, which may act on the synthesis efficiency of IMP and purine. Their protein structures revealed changes in amino acid composition that may affect ADSL enzyme activity. Weak purifying selection in these ADSL alleles was observed in the chicken population studied, implying that the variants have minor fitness impacts and a greater probability of fixation of beneficial mutations than strong purifying selection. A potential selective sweep was observed in Mae Hong Son chickens, whose purine content was lower than that in other breeds. This suggests a potential correlation between variations of the ADSL gene and reduced purine content and an impact of ADSL expression on the quality of chicken meat. However, further studies are required to validate its potential availability as a genetic marker for selecting useful traits that are beneficial to human health and well-being.

Res Vet Sci 2024; 173:105275. [PMID: 38678847 DOI: 10.1016/j.rvsc.2024.105275] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024]
Abstract
Inosine monophosphate (IMP) is widely regarded as an important indicator for evaluating the flavour of poultry meat. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms affecting the specific deposition of IMP. In this study, we functionally verified PKM2 (Pyruvate kinase M2), a candidate gene related to IMP synthesis, in order to reveal the important role of PKM2 in meat flavour and muscle development of Jingyuan chickens. The results showed that the IMP content in breast muscle of Jingyuan chickens was negatively correlated with PKM2 mRNA expression (r = -0.1710), while the IMP content in leg muscle was significantly positively correlated with PKM2 mRNA expression (r = 0.7350) (P < 0.05). During myogenesis, PKM2 promoted the proliferation rate of myoblasts and the expression of proliferation marker genes, inhibited the apoptosis rate and the expression of apoptosis marker genes, and decreased the expression of differentiation marker genes. Up-regulation of PKM2 enhanced the expression of key genes in the purine metabolic pathway and the de novo synthesis pathway of IMP, and suppressed the expression of key genes in the salvage pathway. ELISA assays showed that PKM2 decreased IMP and hypoxanthine (HX) contents, while adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and uric acid (UA) contents were clearly elevated. In summary, these studies revealed that PKM2 regulates myogenesis and specific deposition of IMP, which can be used to improve the quality of Jingyuan chicken meat.

Abstract
Meat flavor is an important factor that influences the palatability of chicken meat. Inosine 5'-monophosphate (IMP), inosine, and hypoxanthine are nucleic acids that serve as taste-active compounds, mainly enhancing flavor in muscle tissue. For this study, we performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using a mixed linear model to identify single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that are significantly associated with changes in the contents of the nucleotide-related compounds of breast meat in the Korean native chicken (KNC) population. The genomic region on chicken chromosome 5 containing an SNP (rs316338889) was significantly (p < 0.05) associated with all three traits. The trait-related candidate genes located in this significant genomic region were investigated through performing a functional enrichment analysis and protein-protein interaction (PPI) database search. We found six candidate genes related to the function that possibly affected the content of nucleotide-related compounds in the muscle, namely, the TNNT3 and TNNT2 genes that regulate muscle contractions; the INS, IGF2, and DUSP8 genes associated with insulin sensitivity; and the C5NT1AL gene that is presumably related to the nucleotide metabolism process. This study is the first of its kind to find candidate genes associated with the content of all three types of nucleotide-related compounds in chicken meat using GWAS. The candidate genes identified in this study can be used for genomic selection to breed better-quality chickens in the future.

Abstract
1. Adenylosuccinate lyase (ADSL) plays an important role in the synthesis of inosine monophosphate (IMP). In this trial, a total of 200 pigeons were sampled and slaughtered. Seven meat quality traits and 11 carcass traits were measured. DNA sequencing was used to detect nucleotide mutations, and associations between ADSL gene polymorphisms and meat quality and carcass traits were analysed. 2. Sequencing results showed that 9 nucleotide mutations were found in the exons of the ADSL gene. All the mutations were synonymous except C13065G, which caused a change in amino acids (Ser to Arg). In addition, two of the detected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) had significant associations with meat quality and carcass traits. 3. For the C13065G SNP located in exon11, the IMP content of breast muscle in AA and AB genotype was higher than in the BB genotype (P < 0.01). The SNP G10696A located in exon10 was significantly associated with carcass rate, in which AA and AB genotype were higher than the BB genotype (P < 0.01). 4. The results indicated that the ADSL gene has a close association with meat quality and carcass traits in domestic pigeons, and G10696A and C13065G SNPs could be applied as genetic markers in molecular marker-assisted breeding of pigeons.

Abstract
The goal of this experiment was to examine effects of diets supplemented with exogenous inosine monophosphate (IMP) on the growth performance, flavor compounds, enzyme activity and gene expression of chicken. A total of 1,500 healthy, 1-day-old male 3-yellow chickens were used for a 52-d experimental period. Individuals were randomly divided into 5 groups (group I, II, III, IV, V) with 6 replicates per group, and fed a basal diet supplemented with 0.0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3% IMP, respectively. There was no significant response to the increasing dietary IMP level in average daily feed intake (ADFI), average daily gain (ADG), and feed:gain ratio (F/G) (P ≥ 0.05). IMP content of the breast and thigh muscle showed an exponential and linear response to the increasing dietary IMP level (P < 0.05), the highest IMP content was obtained when the diet with 0.3% and 0.2% exogenous IMP was fed. There were significant effects of IMP level in diet on free amino acids (FAA) (exponential, linear and quadratic effect, P < 0.05) and delicious amino acids (DAA) (quadratic effect, P < 0.01) content in breast muscle. FAA and DAA content in thigh muscle showed an exponential and linear response (P < 0.05), and quadratic response (P < 0.01) to the increasing dietary IMP level, the highest FAA and DAA content was obtained when the diet with 0.2% exogenous IMP was fed. Dietary IMP supplementation had a quadratic effect on 5΄-NT and the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) enzyme activity in the breast muscle (P < 0.05), and the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) enzyme activity in the thigh muscles increased exponentially and linearly with increasing IMP level in diet (exponential effect, P = 0.061; linear effect, P = 0.059). Cyclohydrolase (ATIC) gene expression in thigh muscle had a quadratic response to the increasing dietary IMP level (P < 0.05), 0.2% exogenous IMP group had the highest (AMPD1) gene expression of the breast muscle and ATIC gene expression of the thigh muscle. These results indicate that dietary IMP did not affect the growth performance of chicken, the diet with 0.2 to 0.3% exogenous IMP is optimal to improve the meat flavor quality in chicken.
