Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to primers and specific TaqMan MGB probes for detecting chicken FMO3 gene A1034T mutation, a detection method and a kit. Background technique
[0002] In 2005, Honkatukia et al. found that a missense mutation in the flavine containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO3) gene located on chicken chromosome 8 was the cause of fishy-smelling eggs. The mutation is located on exon 7 of the FMO3 gene, and the 1034th base adenine (A) of the mutant individual cDNA sequence (GenBank accession number: AJ431390) is replaced by thymine (T), which makes the 329th base of the encoded protein The amino acid at the position is changed from threonine (T) to serine (S), so this mutation is also named T329S mutation. The mutation from threonine to serine at position 329 changes a highly conserved region (FATGY) of flavin monooxygenase. It is speculated that this region may be the binding region for substrate recogniti...
