The application provides application of an IGFBP1
gene in regulating
chicken fat deposition traits, and belongs to the technical fields of
biotechnology and genetic breeding. The application constructs a tissue-specific IGFBP1 recombinant adeno-associated
virus vector, and uses the tissue-specific IGFBP1 recombinant adeno-associated
virus vector to promote expression of the IGFBP1
gene of a chicken, promotes expression of the IGFBP1
gene of the chicken by promoting expression of the IGFBP1 gene of the chicken, increases the content of IGFBP1
protein in serum of the chicken, and further increases the content of
intramuscular fat of the chicken, reduces the weight of
abdominal fat of the chicken and the
abdominal fat rate of the chicken. Through long-term
experimental research, it is found that the chicken IGFBP1 can significantly affect the differential deposition of chicken IMF and AbF, the expression level of serum IGFBP1
protein is significantly negatively correlated with the weight of
abdominal fat and the abdominal fat rate of the chicken, and is significantly positively correlated with the content of
intramuscular fat of the chicken, and can be used as a basis for a serum judgment index of
chicken fat deposition traits, and can also be used for screening chicken breeds with high
intramuscular fat and low abdominal fat rate.
