Abstract

The beta-adrenergic receptor-2 (ADRB2) is a crucial gene known to directly influence growth and metabolic traits; however, this association has not yet been investigated in sheep. The potential association between ADRB2 and growth traits in two commercially important sheep breeds with differing growth characteristics, the Iraqi Awassi and Iranian Karakul was investigated to evaluate the biomarker potential of ADRB2. A total of 172 lambs (88 Awassi and 84 Karakul) were included in the study. In both breeds, various growth traits were correlated with ADRB2 gene variations at three-month intervals from birth to one year of age. All samples were genotyped by amplifying up to 91 % of the coding regions within the ADRB2 gene, followed by Sanger sequencing. Out of twenty-seven SNPs identified in the ADRB2 gene, fourteen novel insertion SNPs were detected constituting 51.9 % of the total polymorphism. Whereas nine (33.3 %) silent SNPs and four (14.8 %) missense SNPs were respectively identified. Three of the identified insertions (105–106insT, 1024–1025insA, and 1065–1066insA) demonstrated various intensities of associations with the growth traits measured. While 105–106insT and 1024–1025insA showed consistent significant effects on most growth traits, the 1065–1066insA SNP’s influence was confined to a few key metrics. The linkage disequilibrium plot data showed little to no co-inheritance between these SNPs with their neighbors, as the three insertion SNPs demonstrated a relatively independent transmission tendency across generations. The variable levels of significant associations observed between the three SNPs and growth traits are primarily attributed to a translation frameshift, suggesting that these novel insertions could serve as valuable markers for evaluating growth traits in both breeds.
发现与绵羊生长性能相关的ADRB2基因的新插入snp
肾上腺素能受体-2 (ADRB2)是已知直接影响生长和代谢性状的关键基因;然而,这种关联尚未在绵羊中进行研究。研究了ADRB2与伊拉克阿瓦西羊和伊朗卡拉库尔羊生长性状之间的潜在关联,以评价ADRB2的生物标志物潜力。共有172只羔羊(88只Awassi, 84只Karakul)被纳入研究。在这两个品种中,从出生到1岁,每隔3个月,各种生长性状与ADRB2基因变异相关。所有样本通过扩增ADRB2基因内高达91% %的编码区进行基因分型,然后进行Sanger测序。在ADRB2基因中鉴定的27个snp中,检测到14个新的插入snp,占总多态性的51.9 %。而9个(33.3% %)沉默snp和4个(14.8 %)错义snp分别被鉴定出来。鉴定出的3个插入位点(105-106insT, 1024-1025insA和1065-1066insA)与测定的生长性状表现出不同程度的关联。虽然105-106insT和1024-1025insA对大多数生长性状具有一致的显著影响,但1065-1066insA SNP的影响仅限于几个关键指标。连锁不平衡图数据显示,这些snp与相邻snp之间几乎没有共遗传,因为三个插入snp在代际间表现出相对独立的传播趋势。在三个snp和生长性状之间观察到的不同程度的显著关联主要归因于翻译移码,这表明这些新的插入可以作为评估两个品种生长性状的有价值的标记。
