Project description:To characterize the mechanism of porcine skeletal muscle development, transcriptome analysis of longissimus dorsi muscle between Shaziling and Yorkshire pig breeds Three male Shaziling pigs and three male Yorkshire pigs from two full-sibs families at 25-days old were slaughtered
Project description:Since CNVs play a vital role in genomic studies, it is an imperative need to develop a comprehensive, more accurate and higher resolution porcine CNV map with practical significance in follow-up CNV functional analyses To detect CNV of pigs, we performed high density aCGH data of diverse pig breeds in the framework of the pig draft genome sequence (Sscrofa10.2) 9 Chinese indigenous pig, one Chinese wild boar and 2 commercial pigs were detected using one pig of Duroc as reference. These 12 animals include 1 wild pig, 2 pigs each from Yorkshire and Landrace as the representatives of modern commercial breeds and 9 unrelated individuals selected from 6 Chinese indigenous breeds (2- Tibetan pig, 2- Diannan small-ear pig, 2-Meishan pig, 1- Min pig, 1-Daweizi pig, and 1-Rongchang pig).
Project description:Based on the work flow of quantitative proteomic analysis combined with TMT labeling and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), this study carried out quantitative proteomic analysis on the liver tissues of Tibetan pigs and Yorkshire pigs in Shannan (about 4000 m), Linzhi (about 3000 m) and Jiuzhaigou (about 1500 m), and compared the differences of protein mass spectra between the liver of living pigs at three altitudes.
