Screening and bioinformatics analysis of a potential ceRNA network in melatonin-induced cashmere growth in Liaoning cashmere goats [PDF]

Archives Animal Breeding
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of melatonin (MT) on the expression patterns of lncRNA, mRNA and miRNA in Liaoning cashmere goat (LCG) skin fibroblasts. A quantity of 200 ng L−1 MT (MT group) stimulated LCG skin fibroblasts for 48

Association analysis of single-nucleotide polymorphism in prolactin and its receptor with productive and body conformation traits in Liaoning cashmere goats [PDF]

Archives Animal Breeding, 2022
The results of this study showed that the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) sites of the PRL and PRLR genes have a certain association with the milk production performance, body size and cashmere performance of Liaoning cashmere goats (LCGs).

Ecogroups and maternal haplogroups reveal the ancestral origin of native Chinese goat populations based on the variation of mtDNA D‐loop sequences

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2023., 2023
Native Chinese goat breeds were mainly divided into three haplogroups: HapA, HapB, and HapC, originated from five, one, and two maternal ancestors, respectively, and were associated with the ecogroups. The goat populations expanded in the different ecoregions. The relative evolutionary rate of goat mtDNA D‐loop differed among the ecogroups.

Single-Cell Sequencing Reveals Differential Cell Types in Skin Tissues of Liaoning Cashmere Goats and Key Genes Related Potentially to the Fineness of Cashmere Fiber

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Cashmere fineness is one of the important factors determining cashmere quality; however, our understanding of the regulation of cashmere fineness at the cellular level is limited.

m6A Methylation Analysis of Differentially Expressed Genes in Skin Tissues of Coarse and Fine Type Liaoning Cashmere Goats

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common internal modification in mRNAs of all higher eukaryotes. Here we perform two high-throughput sequencing methods, m6A-modified RNA immunoprecipitation sequence (MeRIP-seq) and RNA sequence (RNA-seq) to identify ...

Selection of Cashmere Fineness Functional Genes by Translatomics

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
Cashmere fineness is an important index to evaluate cashmere quality. Liaoning Cashmere Goat (LCG) has a large cashmere production and long cashmere fiber, but its fineness is not ideal.

Polymorphisms in the ASMT and ADAMTS1 gene may increase litter size in goats

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 6, Issue 4, Page 775-787, November 2020., 2020
ASMT (acetylserotonin O‐methyltransferase) and ADAMTS1 (ADAM metallopeptidase with thrombospondin type 1 motif) are very important for female and animal reproduction. One mutation (g.158122T>C) of ASMT gene and one mutation (g.7979477C>T) of ADAMTS1 gene were found in goats in this study, and the association between polymorphisms of ASMT or ADAMTS1 ...

Goat Genomic Resources: The Search for Genes Associated with Its Economic Traits

International Journal of Genomics, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Goat plays a crucial role in human livelihoods, being a major source of meat, milk, fiber, and hides, particularly under adverse climatic conditions. The goat genomics related to the candidate gene approach is now being used to recognize molecular mechanisms that have different expressions of growth, reproductive, milk, wool, and disease resistance ...

Screening of cashmere fineness-related genes and their ceRNA network construction in cashmere goats

Scientific Reports, 2021
Competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) is a transcript that can be mutually regulated at the post-transcriptional level by competing shared miRNAs. The ceRNA network connects the function of protein-encoded mRNA with the function of non-coding RNA, such as ...
