Horse%MxA gene%Polymorphism
[Objective] The study aimed to establish a fast and accurate method to detect the polymorphism of the 12th exon of equine MxA gene. [Method] The 12th exon of MxA gene was amplified by mismatch PCR and the products were analyzed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) to determine the point mutation at the 1 790 nt of MxA cDNA. The sequence of the PCR products was also analyzed. [Result] There were three genotypes (AA, AB and BB) in the 12th exon of equine MxA gene; the 2 081 nt of MxA cDNA mutated from G to C, correspondingly changing the 562th amino acid of the coding region of MxA protein from tryptophan to cysteine; the specific sequence of the PCR products amplified by mismatch PCR-RFLP was consistent with the analysis results of RFLP. [Conclusion] The mismatch PCR-RFLP was an easy method with accurate results to detect the polymorphism of the 12th exon of equine MxA gene.
