SNP-finding in pig mitochondrial ESTs.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Sino-Danish pig genome project produced 685 851 ESTs (Gorodkin et al. 2007), of which 41 499 originated from the mitochondrial genome. In this study, the mitochondrial ESTs were assembled, and 374 putative SNPs were found. Chromatograms for the ESTs containing SNPs were manually inspected, and 112 total (52 non-synonymous) SNPs were found to be of high confidence (five of them are close to disease-causing SNPs in humans). Nine of the high-confidence SNPs were tested experimentally, and eight were confirmed. The SNPs can be accessed online at http://pigest.ku.dk/more/mito.

SNP detection exploiting multiple sources of redundancy in large EST collections improves validation rates
MOTIVATION Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection exploiting redundancy in expressed sequence tag (EST) collections that arises from the presence of transcripts of the same gene from different individuals has been used to generate large collections of SNPs for many species. A second source of redundancy, namely that EST collections can contain multiple transcripts of the same gene from ...
متن کاملSingle nucleotide markers of D-loop for identification of Indian wild pig (Sus scrofa cristatus)
AIM Partial fragment of D-loop region extending from 35 to 770 were compared with corresponding sequences of 16 wild pigs and 9 domestic pig breeds from different parts of the world for detection of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers in the region. The paper also reappraises SNP markers from two fragments of cytochrome b gene and a fragment 12S rRNA gene distinguishing the Indian wild...
متن کاملTracing the Pig and Cattle Origin in Processed Food and Feed Products Targeting Mitochondrial 12S rRNA Gene
Background: Species identification in commercially processed food and feed products is one of the important issues. This study was conducted to develop a genetic method for the detection of pig and cattle species in processed food and feed products using newly designed species-specific primers targeting mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene fragments. Methods: Two sets of specific primers were designed ...
متن کاملTranscript profiling of expressed sequence tags from semimembranosus muscle of commercial and naturalized pig breeds.
In general, genetic differences across different breeds of pig lead to variation in mature body size and slaughter age. The Commercial breeds Duroc and Large White and the local Brazilian breed Piau are ostensibly distinct in terms of growth and muscularity, commercial breeds are much leaner while local breeds grow much slower and are fat type pigs. However, the genetic factors that underl...
متن کاملSingle Nucleotide Polymorphism Density Distribution in the Human Genome as Seen in Public Databases: Possibility of Gene Set Comparisons but not Comparisons of Genomic Regions
Genes containing extremely large or extremely small amounts of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) are of specific interest for evolutionary biology. The genome areas with extreme SNP density may possess specific functions, for example, may have specific gene or structural content. We have emulated the data gaining process corresponding to the Celera sequencing scheme and found that the exce...
