A post-GWAS confirming effects of PRKG1 gene on milk fatty acids in a Chinese Holstein dairy population.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:We previously conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) strategy for milk fatty acids in Chinese Holstein, and identified 83 genome-wide significant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 314 suggestive significant SNPs. Among them, two SNPs, BTB-01077939 and BTA-11275-no-rs associated with C10:0, C12:0, and C14 index (P = 0.000014 ~ 0.000024), were within and close to (0.85 Mb) protein kinase, cGMP-dependent, type І (PRKG1) gene on BTA26, respectively. PRKG1 gene plays a key role in lipolysis to release fatty acids and glycerol through the hydrolysis of triacyglycerol in adipocytes. We herein considered it as a promising candidate for milk fatty acids. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether PRKG1 had effects on milk fatty acids. RESULTS:By direct sequencing the PCR products of pooled DNA, we identified a total of six SNPs, including one in 5' flanking region, four in 3' untranslated region (UTR), and one in 3' flanking region. The single-locus association analysis was carried out, and showed that the six SNPs mainly had significant associations with C6:0, C8:0 and C17:1 (P < 0.0001 ~ 0.0035). In addition, we observed a haplotype block formed by g.6903810G > A and g.6904047G > T with Haploview 4.1, and it was strongly associated with C8:0, C10:0, C16:1, C17:1, C20:0 and C16 index (P = < 0.0001 ~ 0.0123). The SNP, g.8344262A > T, was predicted to alter the binding site (BS) of transcription factor (TF) GAGA box with Genomatix software, and the subsequent luciferase assay verified that it really changed the transcriptional activity of PRKG1 gene (P = 0.0009). CONCLUSION:In conclusion, to our best of knowledge, we are the first who identified the significant effects of PRKG1 on milk fatty acids in dairy cattle.
