Short Communication: Identification of Two Polymorphisms in the Goat Lipoprotein Lipase Gene and Their Association with Milk Production Traits

Abstract: Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is a glycoprotein that plays a central role in plasma triglyceride metabolism by hydrolyzing triglyceride-rich chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins. The activity of milk LPL has been shown to differ among several goat breeds, suggesting the existence of a genetic polymorphism influencing the functional properties of this enzyme. We have characterized the complete coding sequence of the goat LPL gene in 18 individuals belonging to 3 breeds. The coding region of the goat LPL cD… Show more

“…Several LPL cDNA and amino acid sequences have also been reported for other vertebrates including gorilla ( Gorilla gorilla ) and rhesus monkey ( Macaca mulatta ) (Martinez et al, 2001), baboon ( Papio anubis ) (Cole & Hixson, 1995), pig ( Sus scrofa ) (Harbitz et al, 1991), cow ( Bos taurus ) (Senda et al, 1987), sheep ( Ovis aries ) (Edwards et al, 1993), cat ( Felis catus ) (Ginzinger et al, 1996), goat ( Capra hercus ) (Badaoui et al, 2007) and guinea pig ( Cavia porcellus ) (Enerbaeck et al, 1987) and fish species, sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) (Jose Ilbanez et al, 2008) and bream ( Sparus aurata; Pagrus major ) (Saera-Vila et al, 2005; Oku et al, 2006). LPL genes usually contain 9 exons of DNA encoding LPL sequences which may undergo exon shuffling generating several isoproteins in each case (Thierry-Mieg and Thierry-Mieg, 2006).…”

“…P represents the overall P-value in the regression, and P 1 and P 2 represent the P-value of the slope of mRNA expression of LPL and slope of supply of LCFA by EPA in the regression, respectively. delivery of FA into the mammary gland (Badaoui et al 2007). The milk fat content in the present study significantly increased, and the milk fat of LCFA tended to increase in the goats fed HQR, which were affected by the LPL activity in the mammary gland of the goats.…”
