DIAGNOSTIC TECHNIQUE FOR CATTLE LEUKEMIA VIRUS TOLERANCE

摘要

FIELD: medicine.;SUBSTANCE: method involves allele-specific Nested-PCR with primers which are matched with nucleotide sequences coding amino acids in positions 70-71 of the amino acid sequence. The allele-specific primers E70f1 - 5'-AGAAGGAGATCCTGGAGGATAG - 3' and R71r1 - 5'-CCTGTCCACCTCGGCCCGCCTATC - 3' are matched with a part of BoLA-DRB3 gene located on chromosome 23 (localisation 23q21). They interact only with the nucleotide sequences coding alleles *11, *23, *28 =*7A causing genetic stability to cattle leukaemia. Then sequencing primer Zond 70/71 5'-GCCCGGCTACACCTGT - 3' is used to identify homo- or heterozygosity of an individual by the given alleles. If observing the primers interacting with alleles *11, *23, *28 =*7A, animals are considered to be leukaemia stable, while the absence of interaction with the same alleles can enable to refer to leukaemia unstable, and to neutral.;EFFECT: invention can be used for mass genetic typing of BoLA-DRB3 leukaemia tolerable animals in livestock and commodity economies for animal selection in a nuclear stock.;2 dwg, 4 tbl, 2 ex
