Decreased growth in angus steers with a short TG-microsatellite allele in the P1 promoter of the growth hormone receptor gene.

Abstract: A polymorphic TG-repeat microsatellite is located 90 base pairs upstream from a major transcription start site in the bovine growth hormone receptor gene. A shorter allele with 11 consecutive TG is common in Bos indicus cattle, whereas longer 16- to 20-TG-repeat alleles predominate in Bos taurus breeds. The purpose of this study was to compare growth and carcass traits between Angus steers that had two of the longer growth hormone receptor alleles with their half-siblings that had one short allele and one of t… Show more

“…All of them were located within the P1 promoter for exon 1A : G/C at position -475, C/T (-262), and C/T (-344). The two C/T substitutions were previously reported by Hale et al (2000) as characteristic of B. indicus species.…”

“…Several polymorphic sequences have been identified in the bovine GHR gene (Falaki et al, 1996;Moisio et al, 1998;Chrenek et al, 1998;Aggrey et al, 1999;Ge et al, 1999;Hale et al, 2000). We found a new RFLP in the bovine GHR gene at Fnu4HI/TseI site (Maj and Zwierzchowski, 2002).…”

“…There are several distinct 5 untranslated region (exon 1) variants in mouse (L1-L5) as well as human GHR (V1-V9), and expression of each transcript is regulated by a different promoter (Edens & Talamantes 1998, Menon et al 2001. Several polymorphisms in the promoter region of GHR gene were reported in species including humans (Hadjiyannakis et al 2001), Angus steers (Hale et al 2000) and Angus cattle (Ge et al 2003), although hitherto there has been no report in mice. Interestingly, the polymorphisms in humans located at 87 bp upstream of V9 (Hadjiyannakis et al 2001), homologous to mouse L3, correspond to those we found in mice.…”

“…Holstein bulls with Alul (+/+) genotype had a higher breeding value for milk fat than Holstein bulls with (-/-) genotype. Hale et al (2000) reported in Angus cattle the presence of the polymorphic TG-repeat microsatellite, which is located 90 bp upstream of a major transcription start site in the GH-R gene. According to their results the (TG) H growth hormone receptor allele decreased growth rates in Angus steers.…”
