Epistasis Between Calpain 1 and Its Inhibitor Calpastatin Within Breeds of Cattle

Abstract: The calpain gene family and its inhibitors have diverse effects, many related to protein turnover, which appear to affect a range of phenotypes such as diabetes, exercise-induced muscle injury, and pathological events associated with degenerative neural diseases in humans, fertility, longevity, and postmortem effects on meat tenderness in livestock species. The calpains are inhibited by calpastatin, which binds directly to calpain. Here we report the direct measurement of epistatic interactions of causative mu… Show more

“…The dominance effect was found at CAPN4751 for all aging periods and CC and CT genotypes were more tender than the TT genotype. Results observed in Nellore cattle confirm previous studies that documented the effect of SNP CAPN4751 on tenderness in B. p. taurus, B. p. indicus and crossbreed populations as can be observed in White et al (2005), Casas et al (2006) and Barendse et al (2007). Therefore, CAPN4751 is really an important SNP on the CAPN1 gene, because it explains the functional variation for tenderness in many bovine subspecies.…”

“…The CAST gene (GenBank accession No. AY008267) is located on chromosome 7 and some polymorphisms on this gene have been recently studied (Casas et al, 2006;Schenkel et al, 2006;Barendse et al, 2007). The SNP UOGCAST1 is a substitution of cytosine with guanine (C/G) located on intron 5 of the CAST gene (base 282 of AY008267), as described by Schenkel et al (2006).…”

“…Meat tenderness is known to be affected by polymorphisms in the calpain and calpastatin genes, and these polymorphisms differ in allele frequency between Brahman and Bt cattle (White et al, 2005;Barendse et al, 2007Barendse et al, , 2008Davis et al, 2008). However, none of calpain and calpastatin genes was detected within the highly significant LDPF segments.…”

“…An association between meat tenderness and both genetic markers in the calpastatin and calpain genes has been confirmed in various studies (e.g. Casas et al, 2006;Barendse et al, 2007). The DGAT1 gene genetic variants was primarily associated with milk production (Thaller et al, 2003), but several later studies reported the association between SNPs in DGAT1 gene and marbling and fat thickness (Wu et al, 2012;Tait et al, 2014).…”
