Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for confirming meat quality improvement of a Berkshire variety using a MYC gene of a Berkshire variety pig, a SNP marker and a primer set associated therewith, a Berkshire using MYC gene,

The present invention relates to a method for confirming meat quality improvement of a Berkshire variety pig using a MYC gene of a Berkshire variety pig, a SNP marker and a primer set associated therewith, and more particularly, to a mutation in a MYC gene of a Berkshire variety, A method for confirming whether or not the meat quality of a Berkshire variety pig is improved, a SNP marker and a primer set related to the method, and further, The present invention provides a selection method of breeds of Berkshire variety pigs using the SNP assay kit and the SNP marker for improving the meat quality of the Berkshire variety pig.

The pig industry has focused primarily on improving the productivity associated with the quantity of meat and on the distribution of fresh meat, which has been accompanied by a decline in pork quality (Cameron, 1990, Cliplef and McKay, 1993). In Korea, the pattern of consumption of pork consumes a lot of fresh meat because most of it is grilled and pork. Basically, meat quality consumer awareness is an important selection criterion for meat purchase. However, uneven meat quality reduces consumer confidence and decreases willingness to choose good meat (Jung et al., 2011). Therefore, in order to overcome these problems, the industry has developed a meat quality trait improvement system that satisfies the consumer's demand for the best pork quality (Lee et al., 2012).

Of the various pig varieties, colored varieties are generally known to have higher marbling scores than white varieties. In Japan, the price of pork in Berkshire varieties is 50% higher than that of regular commercial pork. In Korea, Berkshire pork is marketed as premium meat (DO et al., 2012). Preference for black pig meat is partly due to increased consumer demand for high quality pork. However, insufficient supply is now an obstacle to increasing consumption. This rise in consumer expectations is fueling active genetic-based research in Berkshire varieties that ultimately is carried out to improve breeding and management techniques for improved pork productivity and quality.

On the other hand, a porcine MYC (v-myelofibrosarcoma tumor oncogene) gene coding for c-MYC protein is composed of 3 exons and 2,464 base pairs and is located on chromosome 4. The c-MYC protein is considered to be an important transcriptional regulator during cell development and the gene expression of the MYC gene is associated with various physiological processes including hormones, growth factors, cytokines, lymphokines, nutritional status, development, Reported. In addition, its function is associated with muscle formation, muscle growth and fat formation. Our previous study (Oh et al., 2014) showed that non-synonymous SNPs in porcine MYC genes may be associated with some economic traits such as age at 90 kg, for example. However, there has been no prior art studying the relationship between porcine MYC gene polymorphism and meat quality characteristics of pigs in the past.

Thus, the present inventors have confirmed the Berkshire variety-specific single base polymorphism and polymorphism of the C- MYC gene having pork quality characteristics of Berkshire variety to complete the present invention.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a primer set for improving meat quality of a Berkshire variety pig using a MYC gene of a Berkshire variety pig.

Figure 1 shows the genomic structure and polymorphism of the MYC gene of Berkshire variety pigs and the amplified portion of g.3350 G > C with Hha I < / RTI > restriction enzyme.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail.

As described above, the consumption pattern of pork consumption in Korea is dominated by roast and pork, which consumes a large amount of fresh meat. Consumer demand for pork of a colored variety, which is considered to be higher in quality than white pork, is increasing, The production volume is insufficient compared to the demand quantity. As a result, interest in Berkshire variety pigs has increased recently, and technology for improving the productivity and quality of Berkshire variety pork has been demanded.

Therefore, the present inventors sought a solution to the above-mentioned problem by providing a method for confirming the meat quality improvement of a Berkshire variety pig using the MYC gene of a Berkshire variety pig, SNP markers and a primer set related thereto. The method for confirming the meat quality improvement of the Berkshire variety pig of the present invention is characterized by using a mutation in the MYC gene of the Berkshire variety pig having a significant correlation with meat quality such as muscle acid pH (pH 45 min ) and cooking loss And mutation in the MYC gene can be utilized as a molecular marker for improving meat quality, so that it is useful for selecting breeds of breeds of breeds of Berkshire variety improved in meat quality.

The terms used in the present invention are defined as follows.

In the present invention, "SNP marker" refers to a SNP that is an allelic variant of any variant type found in the genome.

In the present invention, a "primer" is a single strand of oligonucleotides, which is hybridized under suitable conditions (presence of four different nucleoside triphosphates and a polymerase such as a DNA or RNA polymerase) Lt; RTI ID = 0.0 > template-directed DNA < / RTI > The suitable length of the primer is determined by the characteristics of the primer to be used, but is usually 15 to 30 bp in length. The primer need not be exactly complementary to the sequence of the template, but should be complementary enough to form a hybrid-complex with the template.

In the present invention, a "meat quality improving" means the genotype of the SNP (GG, GC, and CC) to result, after slaughter affecting the meat 45 minutes of back muscle pH (pH 45min) and the heat loss is significantly changed by a high a pH of 45 min and a low heat loss.

All technical terms used in the present invention are used in the sense that they are generally understood by those of ordinary skill in the relevant field of the present invention unless otherwise defined. Also, preferred methods or samples are described in this specification, but similar or equivalent ones are also included in the scope of the present invention.

The present invention provides a primer set for improving meat quality of a Berkshire variety pig using Berkshire variety pig MYC gene, which is characterized by a primer set consisting of the nucleotide sequences of SEQ ID NOS: 2 and 3.

The primer set can amplify a polymorphic site specific to a Berkshire variety located at intron 2 of the MYC gene shown in FIG.

The present invention also provides SNP markers for improving meat quality of a Berkshire variety pig characterized by a G3350C SNP marker obtained by amplification through a polymerase chain reaction with the above primer set.

The G3350C SNP marker may be generated by base substitution at position 3350 (G? C) shown in SEQ ID NO: 1.

The nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 was retrieved from the NCBI database as the DNA sequence of the porcine MYC gene (SEQ ID NO: X97040.1 (Genbank)). The nucleotide sequence 3350 base (G → C) shown in SEQ ID NO: 1 has been discovered by the inventors of the present invention, and no method for screening individuals having improved meat quality using the G3350C SNP marker has been known at all.

The present invention also provides a primer set, PCR reaction mixture, and polymorphism (RFLP: restriction fragment length polymorphism) analysis of the restriction enzyme Hha for I < / RTI > for improving meat quality of a Berkshire variety pig.

The SNP assay kit uses the PCR-RFLP technique. To analyze the expression of various mutations in the MYC gene involved in meat quality, a specific restriction enzyme Hha I. These specific restriction enzymes are those selected by the present inventors on the basis of SNPs that reveal SNPs that cause changes in meat quality characteristics.

In Example 3 of the present invention, specifically, the restriction enzyme Hha which can recognize the G3350C SNP site of the present invention I was identified and genotypes were identified as shown in FIG. For example, when amplified with the primers set forth in SEQ ID NOS: 2 and 3, the genotypes can be divided into GG, GC, and CC, and the G allele genotypes are divided into two fragments (480 bp and 201 bp) And one fragment (681 bp) of the C allele genotype was identified.

(A) amplifying a MYC gene comprising the above-described SNP marker of the present invention from a genomic DNA of a sample isolated from a Berkshire variety pig; (b) amplifying the MYC gene amplified in step (a) with restriction enzyme Hha I; And (c) comparing the polymorphism (RFLP) of the gene fragments obtained in the step (b) with the MYC gene of a Berkshire variety pig.

The genomic DNA of step (a) can be obtained from various sources and can be obtained, for example, from muscles, epidermis, blood, bones and organs, and preferably from muscles or blood.

When the starting material is genomic DNA as described above, the genomic DNA can be isolated according to a conventional method known in the art (see Rogers & Bendich (1994)). In addition, when the starting material is mRNA, total RNA is isolated by a conventional method known in the art (Sambrook, J. et al., Molecular Cloning, A Laboratory Manual, 3rd ed., Cold Spring Chomczynski, P. et al., Anal. Biochem. 162: 156 (1987)). The isolated total RNA is synthesized by cDNA using reverse transcriptase. Since the total RNA is isolated from animal cells, it has a poly-A tail at the end of mRNA. CDNA can be easily synthesized using oligo dT primers and reverse transcriptase using such sequence characteristics.

The amplification of step (a) may be performed without limitation as long as the primer capable of amplifying the G3350C SNP site of the SNP marker of the present invention contained in the MYC gene is used. Preferably, the primer is composed of the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NOS: 2 and 3 Can be amplified with a primer set.

The restriction enzyme of step (b) is not particularly limited as long as it is a restriction enzyme capable of recognizing the SNP site. Preferably, the restriction enzyme Hha I is appropriate.

The present invention has developed a search technique using the PCR-RFLP method, which is one of the most efficient methods for searching and diagnosing the SNP region by performing a single PCR reaction and enzyme treatment on the MYC gene including the SNP region.

The comparison of the polymorphism (RFLP) in the step (c) may be performed using the restriction enzyme Hha I is to discriminate the genotypes by grasping the band patterns that appear differently according to the processing of I.

If the gene fragment of step (c) is identified as one fragment having 681 bp, the meat quality of the Berkshire variety pig can be judged to be improved.

Specifically, the meat quality of the Berkshire breed pig can be determined according to the muscle pH (pH 45min), and cooking loss after 45 minutes after the slaughter.

The pH of 45 min is an important economic factor affecting the freshness of meat due to post-metabolism, which is related to the ability of the muscle to retain moisture and has a significant effect on the appearance of meat.

As measured in Example 4, this genotype is suggested to play an influential role in the improvement of pork quality, as the pH 45 min was significantly higher in individuals with the CC genotype than those with the GG and GC genotypes.

Also, in the weight loss of heating, a high heating loss shows a low meat quality, and a high marbling score is reported to have a low heating loss, so that a low heating loss is regarded as an advantageous characteristic of meat quality.

As measured in Example 4, the measured weight loss of the GG, CG and CC genotypes were 16.38 ± 0.63, 15.48 ± 0.84 and 15.50 ± 0.67, respectively (Table 5).

Therefore, when the gene fragment of step (c) is identified as a fragment having 681bp object has a CC genotype, CC genotype exhibits a low heat loss and high pH 45min determined that enhanced the meat quality of the Berkshire breed pig can do.

(A) amplifying a MYC gene comprising the above-described SNP marker of the present invention from a genomic DNA of a sample isolated from a Berkshire variety pig; (b) amplifying the MYC gene amplified in step (a) with restriction enzyme Hha I; And (c) comparing the polymorphism (RFLP) of the gene fragments obtained in step (b) with the MYC gene of a Berkshire variety pig.

If the gene fragment of step (c) is identified as a single fragment having 681 bp, it can be selected as an improved breed.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the following Examples. However, these drawings and the following embodiments are only illustrative of the contents and scope of the technical idea of the present invention, and the technical scope of the present invention is not limited or changed. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations are possible within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention based on these examples.

The final extension was carried out at 72 ° C for 5 minutes. The electrophoresis of the amplification product was stained with ethidium bromide and performed on a 1.5% agarose gel.

Berkshire variety-specific polymorphism detection

Pig MYC sequences were retrieved from the NCBI database (Session Number: X97040.1 (Genbank)). The MYC gene is located on chromosome 4, containing three exons and a coding region of 1,359 bp, and 2,464 base pairs with 5 'UTR (untranslated region) and 3' UTR at the length of 591 bp and 514 bp, respectively . Full-length sequencing of the MYC gene was performed using 8 primer sets (P1-P8: Table 1) for DNA collected from each of the four pig breeds (Berkshire, Duroc, Landrace, Yorkshire) .

Comparing the MYC SNPs deposited in dbSNP (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/projects/SNP/snp_ref.cgi?geneId=448810), the sequencing results show that the intron 2 of the porcine MYC gene g.3350G > C polymorphism was not found in other varieties (Duroc, Landrace and Yorkshire, Table 2), but only in Berkshire varieties.

Sequencing and genotyping,

Twenty DNA samples from each of four varieties (Berkshire, Duroc, Landrace, Yorkshire) were collected and analyzed using the BigDye ® Terminator v3.1 cycle sequencing kit (Applied Biosystems, USA) and the ABI 3130 gene analyzer (Applied Biosystems, USA) Respectively. The genotyped sequence was picked and analyzed by alignment using the SeqMan 7.0 program (DNASTAR, USA) to detect the polymorphism of the gene and determine the breed specificity.

To determine the genotype from the Berkshire variety-specific polymorphism detected above (Table 2), PCR-RFLP analysis was performed on genomic DNA obtained from muscle samples amplified by PCR. The amplified PCR product (2 μL) was treated with 1 unit of Hha I restriction enzyme, 1 μL of 10 × restriction enzyme buffer and sterile distilled water to give a total volume of 10 μL. After the degradation reaction was carried out at a restriction enzyme-specific temperature and time, the DNA fragment was isolated on a 1.5% agarose gel of ethidium bromide buffer for the genotype.

Meat quality measurement

After slaughtering, the loin portion of the 10th rib of the carcass was taken and the meat quality was evaluated based on the four meat quality qualities (acidity / color, drip loss, cooking loss and shear force).

(1) pH / color

Changes in pH and color of carcass were measured at 45 and 24 hours after slaughter using a pH meter (Model 720, Thermo Orion, USA) and a colorimeter (CR-300, Minolta Camera Co, Japan). CIE L * values were read in the measurements.

(2) Drip loss

Size Standardized slices were cut from pork at 24 hours after slaughter and weighed. After weighing, the sample was suspended in an expanded polyethylene bag and stored at 2 ° C for 48 hours and then weighed again. The juice loss was calculated by the weight change rate (%).

(3) Cooking loss

After 24 hours after slaughter, a portion of the size standardized burlap sample was cut from the carcass, the sample was sealed in a hanging polyethylene bag and immersed in a heated hot pot until the internal temperature reached 72 ° C. Heat loss was measured and expressed as a percentage of the initial sample weight.

(4) Shear force

A cylindrical shearing device (1.27 cm in diameter) was used to collect the sample (parallel to the muscle fiber orientation) while heating the porcupine slurry to 72 ° C. After the sample was collected, a measuring tool (SeriesIX, Instron Crop, USA) was used to measure the maximum force (N) required to cut the cylindrical sample (perpendicular to the long axis).

Statistical analysis

The SAS 9.1 (SAS, USA) program was used to assess the genotype impact of the MYC gene on meat quality characteristics by the General Linear Model Procedure (GLM). The least significant difference (LSD) test was implemented to determine the significance between the mean values. The model was used to assess genotype effects on traits as follows:

Y ijkl = μ + Sex i + Age j + S k + G kl + e ijklm

From here,

Y ijkl = observation of each characteristic

μ = total average of each characteristic

Sex i = effect of i-th sex (i = male, female)

Age j = Age effect at the j th slaughter

S k = k-th sire effect

G l = Effect of the first genotype

e ijklm = random error

MYC  Relationship between g.3350G> C SNP and meat quality characteristics

Table 4 shows the meat quality measurements obtained from 378 breeders of the breed variety in this example. The muscle samples used in this study were obtained from 138 sows and 240 birds, but no significant differences between genders were observed over meat quality qualities. Muscle pH, which affects freshness of meat due to post - metabolism, was 6.07 ± 0.30 at 45 minutes after slaughter and 5.79 ± 0.22 at 24 hours after slaughter. The color of the meat evaluated for lightness (L * ), red (a * ) and yellow (b * ) was based on CIE Lab. The lightness (L * ) was 50.49 ± 3.00, the red (a * ) was 16.36 ± 1.16, and the yellow (b * ) was 5.28 ± 1.19. Regarding the water holding capacity of meat, the juice loss was 2.51 ± 2.20 and the heating loss was 16.79 ± 3.99. The shear force was 2.66 ± 0.69. Based on the results of meat quality characteristics, g.3350G> C SNP effect was significant for pH 45 min and heat loss (Table 5, P <0.05). The Berkshire variety pig with homozygous genotype C had the highest pH of 45 min and the lowest heat loss (Table 5). Except for the two characteristics, g.3350G> C SNP did not affect pH 24h , other characteristics including meat color, juice loss and shear force (Table 5, P <0.05). There are several physico-chemical factors known to affect the quality of pork (Stalder et al., 1998). Previous studies have reported that post-hoc pH and meat quality characteristics in muscles are related (Huff-Lonergan et al., 2002). According to Jung et al. (Jung, et al., 2011), both pH 45 min and pH 24h are positively associated, while both pH 45 min and pH 24h are negative for juice loss and shear and negative for Berkshire variety pigs, It was related.

The pig MYC gene was specifically mapped to SSC4 where there is a major QTL region in the tibial region (Liu et al., 2007; Edwards et al., 2008) and daily body weight gain (de Koning et al., 2001) (Reiner et al., 1998; Cepica et al., 2003). The pig chromosome SSC 4p13 contains a synteny group with F13B, ATP1B1, GBA, ATP1A1, IVL and two microsatellites S0001 and S0067 (Andersson et al., 1994; Marklund et al , 1993).

Considering the fact that MYCs play an important role in cellular processes as a molecular hub to receive and integrate multiple signals, it is possible to control different sets of genes negatively or positively. Thus, MYC has a number of different types of cellular functions as well as one function (Potter and Marcu, 1997). In this regard, MYC expression, which is regulated by external cellular stimuli including hormones, growth factors, cytokines, lymphokines, nutritional status, development and differentiation, is associated with a variety of physiological processes (Levens et al., 1997) . More specifically, MYC has been implicated in the pathogenesis of muscle development (Miner and Wold 1991; Whitelaw and Hesketh 1992), muscle proliferation (Kipshidze et al., 2002) and lipogenesis (Ninomiya-Tsuji et al., 1993; MacDougall and Lane 1995) And thus the proto-oncogene can be a candidate gene that contributes to the diversity of obesity in pigs. In addition, previous studies have suggested the effect of MYC gene expression on glucose metabolism (Collier et al., 2003), whereby lactic acid production from the sugar chain reaction may affect the pH of the meat.

Significant differences were also found between the GG, CG and CC genotypes at pH 45 min of 5.96 ± 0.04, 5.97 ± 0.04 and 6.13 ± 0.07, respectively. Muscle pH is an important economic factor associated with the ability of muscles to retain moisture, eventually affecting the appearance of meat (Barge et al., 1991). According to Jung et al. (Jung, et al., 2011), both pH 45 min and pH 24h are positively associated, while both pH 45 min and pH 24h are negative for juice loss and shear and negative for Berkshire variety pigs, It was related. Previous studies have suggested the effect of MYC gene expression on glucose metabolism (Collier et al., 2003), whereby the lactic acid production from the sugar chain reaction may affect the pH of the meat. In this study, it was suggested that the genotype could play an influential role in the improvement of pork quality, since pH 45min was significantly higher in animals with CC genotype of g.3350G> C polymorphism than animals with other genotypes.

The structure of the muscle may or may not be affected by the heat technique, the composition of the meat and the degree of heating of the meat. Heating of meat shrinks muscle fibers, which can cause water retention and reduced heating loss, regardless of the method of heating (CHO et al., 2008). Higher heat loss is associated with lower meat quality (Schmidt et al., 2010), and higher marbling scores indicate lower heating losses (Kim and Lee, 2003). Thus, low heat loss is considered an advantageous characteristic of meat quality. Significant differences in the genetic effects of GG, CG, and CC genotypes were confirmed by measurements of 16.38 ± 0.63, 15.48 ± 0.84, and 15.50 ± 0.67, respectively, on heat loss (Table 5).
