Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of biological detection, and particularly relates to an SNP molecular marker affecting the content of yak immunoglobulin M and its application. Background Art

[0002] As an indigenous animal on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the only bovine species adapted to high altitudes, yaks play an important role in the local animal husbandry. However, the yak breeding industry is facing a major challenge to their health posed by diseases, and the existing prevention and control measures have limitations. In this context, using DNA molecular marker technology to explore genetic markers closely related to the disease resistance of yaks, and then assisting in disease-resistant breeding work, is a forward-looking and innovative research direction.

[0003] Yaks grow in alpine and complex grassland ecosystems, which makes them vulnerable to various diseases. These diseases not only threaten the lives of yaks but also cause significant economic losses to farmers. Although measures such as improving feeding management, using drugs and vaccines can prevent some diseases to a certain extent, the spread of infectious diseases is still difficult to be effectively controlled. More seriously, the widespread use of drugs may lead to the emergence of drug resistance, which in turn affects the safety and quality of livestock products.

[0004] With the rapid development of DNA molecular marker technology, it has laid a foundation for people to study the genetic mechanism of yak disease resistance at the molecular level. Screening and obtaining molecular markers closely related to yak disease resistance, these markers will be more effectively used for the screening and assistance of yak disease-resistant breeding. However, the current research on molecular markers related to yak immunity is still relatively scarce. Therefore, further strengthening basic research and applied research to reveal more genetic markers related to yak disease resistance, using DNA molecular marker technology to screen SNP molecular markers related to yak disease resistance, and applying them to the practice of disease-resistant breeding is one of the important ways to solve the disease problems in the yak breeding industry.

[0037] According to the IgA, IgG, and IgM detection kits of Jiangsu Enzyme Biotechnology Co., Ltd., the double antibody one-step sandwich method was used for determination. First, the required strips were taken out from the aluminum foil bag after equilibration at room temperature for 20 minutes, and the remaining strips were sealed with a self-sealing bag and returned to 4°C. Set up standard wells and sample wells, and add 50μL of different concentrations of standard wells to each standard well; first add 10μL of the sample to be tested to the sample well, and then add 40μL of sample diluent; blank wells are not added. In addition to the blank wells, 100μL of horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled detection antibody is added to each well of the standard well and sample well, and the reaction wells are sealed with a sealing film, and incubated at 37°C water bath or constant temperature box for 60min. Discard the liquid, pat dry on absorbent paper, fill each well with washing solution, let stand for 1min, shake off the washing solution, pat dry on absorbent paper, and repeat the washing 5 times (you can also use a plate washer to wash the plate). Add 50μL of substrate A and B to each well and incubate at 37°C in the dark for 15min. Add 50 μL of stop solution to each well, and measure the OD value of each well at a wavelength of 450 nm within 15 minutes.

The gene frequency, genotype frequency, effective number of alleles (Ne), locus heterozygosity (He), and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test of the g42437268A>G gene were calculated using the Popgen32 software, and the polymorphic information content was calculated using the PIC (polymorphism information content) calculation software. The general linear model in the IBM SPSS Statistics 26 software was used to analyze the association between different genotypes of yaks and immunoglobulins IgA, IgG, and IgM, and the results were expressed as "mean ± standard error".

[0055] 5 Results

[0056] 5.1 PCR amplification and sequencing results

[0057] The amplification products of the g42437268A>G SNP locus on chromosome 15 of yaks were detected using 1% agarose gel (see Figure 1 ), the bands were clear without heterozygous bands, the specificity was good, and the fragment size of the PCR product was 559 bp, which was consistent with the expected size, and the next experiment could be carried out.

[0058] The peak maps and sequences obtained after purification and sequencing of the PCR products are shown in Figure 2 . As can be seen from Figure 2 , an A-G mutation occurred at the g42437268A>G SNP locus, and there were three genotypes: AA, AG, and GG.

[0059] 5.2 Statistical analysis results

[0060] Analyze the genotype and allele frequencies of the g42437268A>G SNP locus on chromosome 15 of yaks from the perspective of population genetics. As shown in Table 1, at the g42437268A>G SNP locus, the frequency of the A allele was 58.1%, showing a dominant allele. By χ 2 The adaptability test showed that the SNP locus was in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P>0.05) (Table 1). The expected heterozygosity of this locus was 0.487, and the PIC was 0.368. Since 0.25<PIC<0.50, it belonged to moderate polymorphism.

[0062]

[0063] 5.3 Association analysis of different genotypes with IgA, IgG, and IgM

[0064] The general linear model in IBM SPSS Statistics 26 software was used to analyze the association between different genotypes of yaks and the contents of immunoglobulins IgA, IgG, and IgM. The results showed that the content of immunoglobulin M in yak individuals with genotypes AA and GG was significantly higher than that in yak individuals with genotype AG (p<0.05). There were no significant differences in immunoglobulins IgA and IgG among individuals with genotype AG (p>0.05). The results are shown in Table 2.
