RESUMO

Insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) is a highly conserved metallopeptidase that functions in the catabolism of bioactive peptides. In our previous study, we identified a putative circular transcript in that chicken insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) gene through analyzing a high throughput sequencing result. Here we set to confirm the circular transcript of IDE (circIDE) and explore its expression regularity in normal barred Plymouth chicken. The circIDE was confirmed by PCR amplification and sequencing. The circular structure of circIDE was determined by RNase R processing and reverse transcription experiments. Then we analyzed the spatiotemporal expression pattern of circIDE and IDE mRNA and compared the differential expression of circIDE and IDE mRNA in the normal barred Plymouth chicken and the dwarf ones. The results showed that the full length of chicken circIDE was 1332 nt, divided form exon 2-11 of the IDE gene. RNase R tolerance analysis showed that chicken circIDE had the general characteristics of circular molecule, and was highly resistant to RNase R. The random primers had higher transcription efficiency than the oligo-d(T)18 primers, confirming that circIDE is a circular structured molecule without poly(A). circIDE was highly expressed in the liver and heart tissues but less in the muscle tissues of leg and breast in normal chickens at the age of 1 and 12 weeks. The expression profile of circIDE in liver tissue showed that circIDE level was lower in1 to 6 weeks and then became higher after 8 weeks of age. The expression of circIDE in liver tissue was significantly higher in normal chicken than that in dwarf barred Plymouth chicken (P<0.05). This study confirmed a circIDE strucutre in chicken IDE gene and uncovered its expression regularity. We demonstrated that the expression level of circIDE in the liver tissue was higher in normal barred Plymouth chicken compared to dwarf species. This study paves the way for further understanding the biological function of chicken circIDE, including its roles in regulating chicken growth and development.

RESUMO

In this study, we report the investigation of extracellular fatty acid binding protein gene (Ex-FABP) genetic polymorphism in a sample of 360 chicken individuals. The screening of the coding regions with their intron-exon boundaries and the proximal flanking regions was performed through a PCR-SSCP strategy. Following sequence analysis revealed 35 novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of chicken Ex-FABP gene. Among the 35 SNPs, twenty-five were found in the introns. And the remaining seven and three SNPs were in the coding region and the 5'UTR, respectively. Two SNPs in the coding region caused two missense mutants and the other five did not result in any amino acid changes. The nature and the distribution of Ex-FABP mutations in three chicken breeds were analyzed. Variations detected here might have an impact on Ex-FABP activity and function and underpin the development of gene markers for chicken fatty deposition and metabolism. The polymorphism, generated by C4715T mutation in exon5, was significantly associated with thickness of subcutaneous fat plus skin in cocks. Subcutaneous fat plus skin of cocks was more thick in TT genotype than in CC genotype (P < 0.05). The Ex-FABP gene could be a candidate locus or linked to a QTL that significantly affects fatty deposition and metabolism in chicken.
