- Abstract Background Beef marbling is considered a desirable trait in the meat industry. Therefore, understanding the genetic factors that cause marbling is important. Previously, we performed a genome-wide association study to examine genetic factors associated with beef marbling in Japanese Black cattle and identified a candidate region between 10–30 Mbp on chromosome 7. We verified the effect of the SNPs in this region on beef marbling using linkage disequilibrium block analysis. We narrowed down the candidate region to a range of 15.8–16.1 Mbp. In this study, we comprehensively detected all of the SNPs in this region and verified their effects on beef marbling. Results Genome resequencing using four animals exhibiting high beef marbling standard (BMS) and four with low BMS revealed a total of 1,846 polymorphisms within the candidate region. Based on the annotation, we selected 13 SNPs exhibiting a moderate impact, as no high-impact SNPs were detected. All of the SNPs represented missense polymorphisms and were located in the following seven genes: RDH8, ANGPTL6, DNMT1, MRPL4, ICAM1, ICAM3, and ICAM5. Finally, we determined the effects of these SNPs on the BMS of a Japanese Black cattle population (n = 529). Analysis of variance revealed that the five SNPs were located in genes encoding the intercellular adhesion molecules (ICAM1, ICAM3, and ICAM5), and showed a highly significant association compared with the remainder (p < 0.01). The lowest p-value was observed for ICAM3_c.739G > A (p = 1.18E-04). Previous studies have suggested that intercellular adhesion molecules (ICAM) may be an upstream factor that regulates adipocyte differentiation. Therefore, considering the polymorphism and putative gene function, we suggest that ICAM1 is potentially responsible for beef marbling. c.470C > G and/or c.994G > A on ICAM1 may be responsible for this quantitative trait locus. Conclusions Promising SNP candidates responsible for beef marbling were identified using extensive polymorphism verification in a previously reported QTL region. We aim to elucidate the mechanism of beef marbling in future studies by investigating how these polymorphisms alter protein structure and function.Springer Science and Business Media LLC, Feb. 2024, BMC Genomic Data, 25(1) (1)[Refereed]Scientific journal
- In this study, the genetic parameters of major visceral diseases were estimated using the postmortem inspection records of 9057 fattening Japanese Black cattle in Shimane Prefecture, Japan, and the genetic correlation between visceral diseases and carcass traits was analyzed. There were six visceral diseases with a prevalence of 5% or higher, namely, pleurisy, pneumonia, bovine abdominal fat necrosis (BFN), rumenitis, hemorrhagic hepatitis, and perihepatitis. Variance components were estimated using the Gibbs sampling method, and the heritability of the visceral disease ranged from 0.07 to 0.49 for perihepatitis and BFN, respectively. Significant negative genetic correlations were identified between pleurisy and rib thickness (-0.32), BFN and carcass weight (-0.29), and BFN and rib eye area (-0.22). No significant genetic correlation was observed among the visceral diseases. The least squares analysis of variance suggested that some visceral diseases decrease the value of carcass traits. In particular, carcass weight and rib eye area in individuals with BFN were 11.7 kg and 1.87 cm2 lower than those of healthy cattle, respectively. Thus, it was inferred that genetic factors were involved in the visceral diseases of fattening Japanese Black cattle in Shimane Prefecture.2024, Animal science journal = Nihon chikusan Gakkaiho, 95(1) (1), e13930, English, International magazine[Refereed]Scientific journal

- In our previous study, we used genome resequencing to detect all candidate polymorphisms within a quantitative trait loci (QTL) region for beef marbling reported previously at 10–30 Mbp on bovine chromosome 7, and we selected 6044 polymorphisms as candidate quantitative trait nucleotides (QTNs). In the present study, we aimed to identify quantitative trait genes (QTGs) and QTNs in this QTL region by verifying the effect of SNPs on beef marbling in two Japanese Black cattle populations using a Dynamic Array integrated fluidic circuit. In total, 96 selected SNPs were genotyped in 441 and 529 animals in Hyogo and Miyazaki cattle populations, respectively. The most significant p-values were detected in a SNP in a splice region of ALDH7A1 (SNP93_ALDH7A1; p = 3.46 × 10−5) in Hyogo cattle and a missense polymorphism of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM1) (SNP37_ICAM1; p = 3.33 × 10−4) in Miyazaki cattle. Interestingly, SNP93_ALDH7A1 was not significant (p = 0.459) in Miyazaki cattle, and SNP37_ICAM1 showed a weakly significant association (p = 0.043) in Hyogo cattle. Thus, each population would likely have different QTGs and QTNs for beef marbling in the QTL region. In the Hyogo population, it was not possible to determine the accurate range of the linkage disequilibrium (LD) block in LD block analysis because of a strong LD structure throughout the assessed region. In Miyazaki cattle, however, an LD block containing SNP37_ICAM1 had a range of 15.8–16.1 Mbp, suggesting that QTNs would be located within this region. The functions of 19 genes in the LD block were investigated. ICAM1 is known to play an important role in adipocyte differentiation; given this function and the effect of amino acid substitution, SNP37_ICAM1 was identified as a promising candidate QTN for beef marbling. Further research on the effect of SNP37_ICAM1 on adipocyte differentiation is expected to provide insights into the mechanism underlying beef marbling formation.MDPI AG, Jul. 2022, Genes, 13(7) (7), 1190 - 1190[Refereed]Scientific journal

- Genetic parameters for carcass grading traits, image analysis traits, and monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) percentages were estimated in 29,942 Japanese Black cattle from Hyogo Prefecture. The analyzed traits included five carcass grading traits, two image analysis traits, fat area ratio and fineness index, and two MUFA traits, one measured in intermuscular fat using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and the other in intramuscular fat using gas chromatography (GC). The heritability estimates of image analysis traits and MUFA were moderate to high, ranging from 0.395 to 0.740, and it was considered that they could be improved simultaneously with carcass grading traits because no severe genetic antagonism was observed. Although the heritability of the NIRS-based intermuscular MUFA was slightly lower than that of the GC-based intramuscular MUFA, the genetic correlation between the two methods was as high as 0.804. These results indicate that the NIRS method can be used as an alternative evaluation procedure to predict MUFA in intramuscular fat in the longissimus muscle.Corresponding, Wiley, Dec. 2021, Animal Science Journal, 92(1) (1), e13664, English, International magazine[Refereed]Scientific journal

- Five polymorphisms associated with the percentage of oleic acid (C18:1) in beef fat were previously reported on bovine chromosome 19 in different Japanese Black cattle populations. This study aimed to verify the effects of these five polymorphisms on C18:1 using the same Japanese Black cattle population and conduct linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis in order to determine the locations of the quantitative trait loci (QTLs). We genotyped the five polymorphisms (SREBP1 c.1065 + 83 (84bp indel), STARD3 c.1187 C > T, GH c.379 C > G, FASN g.841 G > C, and FASN g.16024 A > G) in two populations, which were bred in Hyogo and Gifu Prefectures, Japan (n = 441 and 443, respectively) in order to analyze their effects on C18:1 using analysis of variance (ANOVA). In the Hyogo population, SREBP1 c.1065 + 83 and STARD3 c.1187 C > T were significantly associated with C18:1 (p < 0.001). Meanwhile, FASN g.841 G > C, FASN g.16024 A > G, and GH c.379 C > G were significantly associated with C18:1 (p < 0.01) in the Gifu population. LD analysis was subsequently conducted to detect the range of the QTLs, which ranged from 32.2 to 46.4 Mbp and from 47.8 to 52.1 Mbp in the Hyogo and Gifu populations, respectively. In conclusion, this study confirmed the existence of QTLs on BTA19 and divided the candidate region for each QTL based on LD coefficients. These results could contribute to efficient searches for responsible genes and polymorphisms for fatty acid composition.MDPI AG, Jun. 2021, Life, 11(7) (7), 597 - 597[Refereed]Scientific journal

- Abstract. Carcass traits have been efficiently improved by recent selection using DNA markers in beef cattle. Additionally, DNA markers might have an effect on other traits such as fertility traits; therefore attention should also be paid to such pleiotropic effects. However, the effects of the markers on both carcass and fertility traits have never been evaluated in the same population, since they are generally measured in different populations. The objective in the current study was to discuss effectiveness of DNA markers developed for carcass traits through investigation of their effects on carcass and fertility traits in a population. We genotyped six markers SCD V293A, FASN g.841G>C, PLAG1 g.49066C>G, NCAPG I442M, DGAT1 K232A, and EDG1 g.1471620G>T in a Japanese Black cattle population (n=515). To investigate their effects on carcass and fertility traits, we performed statistical analysis (ANOVA and the Tukey–Kramer honestly significant difference (HSD) test). In the results, three of six markers, SCD V293A, NCAPG I442M, and EGD1 g.1471620G>T, were significantly associated with both carcass and fertility traits. Remarkably, the same allele for each marker had positive effects on both traits, suggesting that we would be able to simultaneously improve them using these markers in this population. However, previous studies reported that the effects of DNA markers could differ among populations. Therefore, it is necessary to confirm the effect of the marker in each population before it is used for improvement.Copernicus GmbH, Jan. 2020, Archives Animal Breeding, 63(1) (1), 9 - 17, English, International magazine[Refereed]Scientific journal

- Meat quality in beef cattle is controlled by genetic factors. SPP1 (secreted phosphoprotein 1) gene, coding a multifunctional cytokine with diverse biological functions, is the candidate gene influencing carcass traits. In this study, we tried to discover DNA polymorphisms associated with beef quality in bovine SPP1 gene, so that two SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) in the promoter region and one SNP in the CDS (coding sequence) region were identified. Although the formers were predicted to alter SPP1 expression, they did not show any effects on the traits. On the contrary, statistical analysis revealed that g.58675C > T, a non-synonymous mutation from threonine to methionine in the conservative region, had a significant effect on carcass weight. Carcass weight of the animals with C/T allele (473.9 ± 6.0 kg) was significantly heavier than that of the C/C homozygotes (459.2 ± 2.8 kg). Because SPP1 gene functions in skeletal muscle cells as a positive regulator, the non-synonymous mutation might influence muscle development and remodeling, resulting in increased carcass weight of the C/T animals. Our results indicate that the SNP can be applied as a DNA marker for the improvement of beef cattle.Dec. 2019, Heliyon, 5(12) (12), e03006, English, International magazine[Refereed]Scientific journal

Defects in appearance of Japanese Black cattle are not only impairing the characteristics of the breed but also inflicting economic losses on farmers in Japan. The objective of this study was to investigate the incidence of the four kinds of defects using 511,337 calf test records of Japanese Black heifer calves born in Kagoshima prefecture in April 1999 through March 2015. The defects included were white spotting (WS), tongue's defect (TD), nipple's defect (ND) and defect of coat color (DC). The defect incidence rate ranged from 0.29% for DC to 3.68% for WS. All incidences increased from 1999 to 2015. In addition, site of occurrence for WS has changed, and a decreased trend in ratio of udder-specific WS was observed. Regression coefficients of the incidences of WS on the level of inbreeding were significantly positive (P<0.05). The defect incidence of daughters was significantly different between normal and defective dams (P<0.01) except for DC. Moreover, highly positive correlations were found between the sire-by-sire incidence rates crossed with normal dams and defective dams in WS and TD, suggesting that sires could be influential factor for the incidence. Our results showed the possibility to reduce the appearance defects of Japanese Black by considering the mates.

- 但馬牛集団のジーンドロッピング法による系統分類の試み但馬牛における始祖個体遺伝子の消長をジーンドロッピング法で調べ,その結果を基に普遍的な系統分類の方法を検討した.1 現存牛の血統を可能な限り遡り出現した牛のうち名号,生年月日が明らかで,産地が兵庫県内の牛を始祖個体としたところ,条件を全て満たす個体は1,461頭(累計遺伝的寄与率0.773)となった.系統分類のための始祖個体は,Pr(lost)の小さい100頭に限定した.2 始祖個体の生産地は城崎郡14頭(累積寄与率0.0314),出石郡2頭(累積寄与率0.0002),美方郡82頭(累積寄与率0.637)と養父郡2頭であったが,当時の郡境からは養父郡の2頭は美方郡に分類されていると考えられ,美方郡産が84頭にのぼり寄与率が高かった.3 現存個体27,138頭に対する始祖個体からの遺伝的寄与率を計算し,その結果を基に主成分分析を行った.第3主成分までで約85%を説明でき,現在個体の頭数割合が3.7~25.9%の8グループに分類できた.4 各グループ内及びグループ間の平均血縁係数から,G1~G4とG8ではグループ間の平均血縁係数がグループ内の平均血縁係数よりも高いグループが存在し,近年は系統外の種雄牛との交配が増加したことに起因すると考えられた.G5~G7では,グループ内の平均血縁係数が最も高く,依然,系統内交配が主流であると考えられた.5 グループ毎の近交係数は,16,143頭の結果からG1~G4では13.0~17.8%と低く,G5~G8で18.7~23.2%と高い傾向にあった.6 グループ毎の枝肉重量の育種価の平均は-8.1~-2.7とグループ間でばらついていた.BMS育種価の平均に関しても,0.63~1.00とばらついていたが,各グループともに最大値をみると1.477~2.137と能力が高い個体から含まれていた.以上の結果から,ジーンドロッピング法により選定した100頭の始祖個体を元にした系統分類法によって現在の但馬牛を分類することが可能であり,頭数や産肉能力から見ても遺伝的多様性を保持しつつ,今後の改良が可能であることが明らかとなった.兵庫県立農林水産技術総合センター, 2005, 兵庫県立農林水産技術総合センター研究報告〔畜産編〕, 41 16-21(41) (41), 16 - 21, Japanese[Refereed]Scientific journal

- 但馬牛集団の血縁係数による系統分類の試み血縁係数を利用したクラスター分析により但馬牛集団の系統分類を試み、現存集団の遺伝的構成を把握し、系統の再構築の可能性を検討した。とくに、今回の分析で規模が小さな集団の増頭を目的として、仮想集団を作出した場合の系統分類についても検討した。1.供用中集団のデンドログラムを血縁係数0.10で切断し、7グループに分類した。2.各グループ内及びグループ間の平均血縁係数は、グループ1、2、3と5では全て0.3以上であった。グループ4も概ね0.3で上記グループとの血縁が高かった。グループ6と7が、他グループと異なりグループ間の血縁係数が低かった。3.各グループの育種価評価値の平均値を比較するとグループ毎に産肉あるいは種牛能力の特徴が明らかになった。4.600頭の仮想雌牛群と待機雄牛の後代を加え系統分類を実施した。その結果、中土井系繁殖雌牛に城崎系種雄牛を交配するシミュレーション集団1では、雌雄が逆の系統に属する交配集団2に比較して高率(1.7%vs16.0%)に城崎系であるグループが作出された。集団1では、種雄牛による差が大きく、奥秀、城富、城和、勘高や大勘で城崎系産子を生産する割合が高かったが、光城波は亜系の新たなグループを形成した。集団2では、城崎系を生産する母牛が6頭程度に限られ、中土井系の種雄牛を交配することで城崎系の産子を生産する可能性は低かった。兵庫県立農林水産技術総合センター, 2003, 兵庫県立農林水産技術センター研究報告[畜産編], 39:16-21(39) (39), 16 - 21, JapaneseScientific journal

- Genetic relationships among carcass traits and between reproductive or growth traits and carcass traits were estimated for Japanese Black using REML procedure. Among carcass traits a low but favorable genetic correlation (-0.04) was obtained between two carcass traits relating to fat deposition; beef marbling score and subcutaneous fat thickness, suggesting that these traits could be improved simultaneously. Beef marbling score had a weak (-0.01) and an undesirable (0.25) relationships with daily gain of young bulls at performance testing and calving interval of breeding females, respectively. These estimates indicated truncation selection by daily gain would remove superior young bulls in marbling from selection candidates and selection by marbling would lead calving interval longer. Hence, selection criteria, such as estimated or predicted breeding values, of beef marbling and calving interval should be introduced into appropriate selection stages of breeding programs. However a caution will be needed for rapid increase in inbreeding because very low heritability (0.05) was estimated for calving interval. To avoid the problem a simulation study, which examines the effectiveness of a simple genetic algorithm to optimize mating design, was conducted. The mating designed by genetic algorithm succeeded to reduce 8.1% to 14.8% of inbreeding level for various heritabilities compared with random mating after nine generations of selection and mating. The possibility of the algorithm to maintain genetic diversity of Japanese Black was demonstrated.Kobe University, Feb. 2002, The science reports of Faculty of Agriculture, Kobe University, 26, 49 - 54, Japanese
- Using predicted breeding values (PBV) of an actual beef cattle population, application of a simple genetic algorithm (GA) was done to design the optimum mating, with constraints on inbreeding coefficient of each progeny, inbreeding level of the next generation, and mating frequency of sires. As the breeding stock, 15 sires and 400 dams were selected according to PBV of judging score for breeding females (JS-Data) or beef carcass marbling score (BMS-Data). Aggregate genetic merit (AGM) of eight traits (judging score, two reproductive traits, and five carcass traits) weighing differently was regarded as the breeding objective. When appropriate operator values were used, GA found satisfactory mating designs under pre-determined constraints. The losses in gains of AGM by imposing the constraint of 0.30 on mating frequency were only 31.3% in JS-Data and 35.6% in BMS-Data compared with the mating designs without constraints. Genetic gain of beef marbling score was 28.3% higher in the evaluation from BMSData than JS-Data. Efficiencies of GA to design mating were demonstrated.Japanese Society of Animal Science, Apr. 1998, Nihon Chikusan Gakkaiho, 69(4) (4), 333 - 340, English

- For a sub-population of the Japanese Black cattle, values of genetic parameters forcertain ratio traits and their components (numerator and denominator traits) were estimatedunder the assumptions of linearity and normality. Then, assuming individual selection on phenotypic values of the ratio traits, the nature and validity of the parameter values for the ratio traits was examined for predicting genetic changes for the ratio and component traits. Ratio traits studied were TDN efficiency (TDNE) defined as the ratio of weight gain (WG) to TDN intake (TDNI), and roughage intake ratio (RIR) expressed as roughage intake (RI) divided by total feed intake (TFI). The estimation of (co)variances was conducted by the restricted maximum likelihood procedure with a reduced animal model, using records of 662 bull calves performance-tested. In this study, the parameter estimates for the component traits were assumed to equal the current true values. For the TDNE-based selection, with the assumptions of linearity and normality, genetic changes in upward and downward directions were predicted for WG and TDNI, respectively, which corresponded to the directions of response expected truly. However, the amount of the change was overestimated for WG and underestimated for TDNI. For the selection on RIR, the changes expected truly in the component traits were both in downward directions, but the prediction on the assumptions yielded positive and negative values of response expected for RI and TFI, respectively. The amounts of the changes predicted utilizing information of the parameters defined based on a Taylor-series expansion of ratio also did not agree with those expected truly. These results indicate a possibility that the information of parameters obtained based on animal models treating the ratio traits as a single, normally-distributed trait is not appropriate for determing genetic changes for the ratio and component traits expected truly fromthe ratio traits-based selection. It would be worth making a comment that such changes in the negative direction for both RI and TFI as expected from the RIR-based selection may be undesirable for optimized food intake capacity.Japanese Society of Animal Science, Nov. 1996, Nihon Chikusan Gakkaiho, 67(11) (11), 949 - 955, English
- Three methods of predicting direct and correlated responses were compared. Selection based on predicted breeding values, in which accuracies of selection varied for each candidate, was performed using computer simulation. The three methods were 1) average accuracy (AA), in which accuracies of selection in the standard equations were replaced with average accuracies of predicted breeding values; 2) group accuracy (GA), in which candidates for selection were classified according to their accuracies and weighted genetic gains were calculated from each class; and 3) selection differential of predicted breeding values (SP). All three methods were comparable in predicting direct response. However AA showed severe underpredictions in correlated response. Generally, SP was more effective than GA for predicting correlated response where correlation between predicted breeding values and their accuracies did not exist.Japanese Society of Animal Science, Nov. 1996, Nihon Chikusan Gakkaiho, 67(11) (11), 930 - 940, English
- In Okazaki station of National Livestock Improvement Center, selection index for desired gains based on the assumed parameters has been used to improve layer chicken. The same indices were applied on three lines from 1989 to 1994. Pre-specified restrictions as objective were no change on egg weight at 252 days of age (EW) and body weight at 256 days of age (BW), 5% increase of egg production efficiency from first egg to 280 days of age in all lines, and more five days reduction of age at first egg (SM) was aimed in one line. The EW, BW, SM and egg production efficiency between 169-280 days were included in the index as selection criteria. In this study, expected theoretical responses from the index were compared with actual responses obtained by the regression of average predicted breeding values by birth year multiplied by number of generation selected. Breeding values of five traits were predicted with multiple-trait BLUP under animal models using (co) variances estimated with REML. Directions of the actual responses for the traits except BW agreed well with those of expected theoretical responses in all lines. Disagreement found in BW was caused by the difference between assumed genetic correlations and REML ones. The amount of responses was less than theoretically expected and differed across lines reflecting the discrepancy between genetic parameters assumed and REML estimates in each line. The results indicate that more reliable genetic parameters for a line under question, the so-called REML estimates, should be used in order to attain pre-specified objectives.Japanese Society of Animal Science, Nov. 1996, Nihon Chikusan Gakkaiho, 67(11) (11), 941 - 948, English
- Application of a simple genetic algorithm (GA) was examined to determine the optimum mating designs with constraints on inbreeding level because selection based on predicted breeding values always involves a risk of rapid increase in inbreeding. The GAs search for the optimum solution imitating biological evolution through 'crossover of chromosomes', 'mutation of genes', and 'selections'. The operators used in GA were first evaluated without constraints on inbreeding level. Numbers of chromosomes and of crossovers had little effect on performance of GA. However as mutation rate decreased, performance of GA increased. When constraints were applied on inbreeding level, GA found solutions if appropriate penalties were given to those chromosomes, which resulted in unacceptable inbreeding levels. In this study it became clear that penalty was depended on solution spaces allowed for GA. Although moreresearch is required on determination of operators, GA showed satisfactory performances to search for the optimum mating designs.Japanese Society of Animal Science, Oct. 1996, Nihon Chikusan Gakkaiho, 67(10) (10), 835 - 843, English
- Abstract Genetic relationships among traits recorded on breeding females and carcass traits of fattening animals in Japanese Black cattle were estimated using REML procedure under multiple-trait animal models. Traits analyzed were five exterior judging traits, three body measurements at registry judgment, two reproductive traits (age at first calving, AFC; average calving interval, ACI) of breeding females and five carcass traits collected in Hiroshima prefecture. Heritabilities of exterior judging traits, body measurements and carcass traits were estimated at moderate to high, while those of reproductive traits were very low. Genetic correlations among exterior judging traits and body measurements were high when the ratio of body weight to withers height was not included in analytical model. Generally exterior judging traits, body measurements and carcass traits correlated favorably with AFC. However carcass beef marbling score correlated unfavorably with ACI. Because selection on carcass traits will be more intense, considerations will be necessary on ACI.Japanese Society of Animal Science, Jun. 1996, Nihon Chikusan Gakkaiho, 67(6) (6), 511 - 518, English

- Genetic relationships between ultrasonically measured live animal measurements and carcass traits in Japanese Black cattle were estimated using a two-trait sire and maternal grandsire model with REML procedure. Live animal measurements included longissimus muscle area (7-REAu), subcutaneous fat thickness (SFTu), intermuscular fat thickness (IMFTu), rib thickness (RTu) and beef marbling score (BMSu) at 7th rib, and longissimus muscle area at 13th rib (13-REAu) by ultrasound on 154 performance tested bulls. For carcass traits, carcass weight (CWc), longissimus muscle area (REAc), rib thickness (RTc), subcutaneous fat thickness (SFTc), yield estimate (YEc), and beef marbling score (BMSc) were measured on 4, 725 steers and heifers. Heritabilities for live animal measurements, at the end of performance testing, were estimated at 0.20, 0.58, and 0.15 for 7-REAu, SFTu, and BMSu, respectively. For carcass traits, heritabilities of 0.25 for CWc, 0.52 for REAc, 0.55 for SFTc, and 0.56 for BMSc were obtained. Carcass traits were highly heritable and had higher heritability estimates compared to those for ultrasonic measurements. Genetic correlations between ultrasonic longissimus muscle area and REAc ranged from 0.52 to 0.71. Ultrasonic subcutaneous fat thickness correlated negatively to SFTc and BMSu correlated positively to BMSc at the beginning of testing but negatively at the end of testing. Although ultrasonic live animal measurements concerning fat deposition did not correlate consistently to corresponding carcass traits, possibilities for improving REAc were indicated by the introduction of ultrasonic techniques into performance testing.Japanese Society of Animal Science, Jan. 1995, Nihon Chikusan Gakkaiho, 66(1) (1), 7 - 15, English

- 日本学術振興会, 科学研究費助成事業, 萌芽研究, 神戸大学, 2002 - 2003黒毛和種遺伝子発現のDNAマイクロアレーによる解析家畜のゲノム研究は急速に発展し、ウシ全ゲノム配列が決定されようとしている。この段階に来て、家畜の経済的な形質に関連する全遺伝子を把握し、家畜の選抜や効率の良い生産を目指す学問が台頭してきた。それが、バイオインフォマティックスである。このバイオインフォマティックス研究にはマイクロアレーを利用した、網羅的・総合的な遺伝子解析が必要となる。我々は、オーストラリアのCooperative Research Center for Cattle and Beef Quality (CRCMQ)、CSIROと共同で、牛肉の肉質の改善に係わる遺伝子を発見するためのcDNAマイクロアレーの製作と、それを用いた分析に取り組んできた。実際には裾、神戸大学農学部附属農場にて、黒毛和種、ホルスタイン種、両者の一代雑種、夫々3頭を供試し、経時的にロース部分の筋肉(約1g)を生体より採取し、mRNAの分析、アミノ酸組成の分析、脂肪酸組成の分析等に取り組んだ。 mRNAの分析ではこれらの経時的に採取したサンプルと屠殺時に採取したサンプルとを9、000種類の遺伝子を貼り付けたcDNAマイクロアレーによって分析した。マイクロアレーの作成と分析はオーストラリア側が行った。その結果、肥育開始直後の10ヶ月齢付近で、品種間で著しく異なる遺伝子が、多数発見された。そのうちの一つは、以前から見当をつけていた遺伝子、Stearoyl coAdesaturase (SCD)で、この遺伝子が、牛肉の品質の指標になる事が改めて確認された。また、その他多数の遺伝子が発見されているので、今後はSCD以外の個々の遺伝子一つずつについて、Real-time PCR法などによって経時的に分析に、複数の遺伝子の経時的な動態が黒毛和種の肉質の改善にどのように係わっているかを明らかにしてゆく。この研究によって、何時の時期にどの遺伝子を指標にして調べれば、屠殺時の肉質の指標となるか、肉質改善の目標として、どのような遺伝子を対象にすれば肉質の改善が図れるかが明らかになろうとしていて、極めて期待の大きい成果が得られている。次いで、8頭の黒毛和種を供試し、ビタミンA濃度の肉質に関する影響を分析中で、ビタミンAの肉質に関わる遺伝子に及ぼす影響の発現解析が可能になる。
