Abstract:

Anoctamin 5(ANO5)is a multichannel membrane protein localized in the sarcoplasmic and sarcoplasmic reticulum that primarily plays a role in myosin membrane repair and phospholipid scrambling,mutations in the ANO5 gene can lead to jaw hypoplasia as well as various myopathies.It aimed to investigate the association of SNPs in the ANO5 gene with fat deposition traits in sheep.A population of 1 005 healthy and clearly genealogical Hu sheep male lambs was selected for the study,and PCR amplification and KASPar typing techniques were used to detect the locus polymorphisms of the ANO5 gene in the experimental population and analyze the associations with fat deposition traits.The expression level of ANO5 gene in different tissues was analyzed by qPCR.The results showed that sheep ANO5 gene was widely expressed in a variety of tissues in Hu sheep,and the highest expression of ANO5 gene was found in heart tissue compared with other tissues.Three genotypes of CC,CT and TT with the g.58010 C>T polymorphic locus were detected in the 10th intron of the sheep ANO5 gene.Descriptive statistics showed that the perirenal fat weight was the most different and had the highest degree of variability compared with other fat weights.Correlation analysis showed that fat deposition related traits were positively correlated with growth and feed efficiency traits,and the results of association analyses showed that the polymorphic locus was significantly associated with perirenal fat weight and its related traits in the Hu sheep.Among them,the perirenal fat weight of individuals with CC genotype was significantly lower than that of individuals with TT genotype.In conclusion,the g.58010 C>T mutation locus of the ANO5 gene can be used as a candidate molecular marker for perirenal fat deposition traits in Hu sheep.
