Abstract
Aim: Present study was
carried out to sequence and phylogenetic analysis of CXCR2 gene of
Murrah buffalo.
Materials and Methods: For the present investigation, from
a group of forty eight Murrah buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis), blood
samples were collected randomly from eight animals, out of which
four were healthy and four were mastitic.
Results: The amplification of Interleukin-8B (IL-8B)
receptor gene target sequence was carried out using the primer
pair in an optimized polymerase chain reaction. Partial sequencing
of IL-8B receptor gene of Bubalus bubalis (Murrah) has been done
successfully. The sequences of IL-8B receptor gene showed 99%
homology to that of Bos indicus × Bos taurus, 98% to that of Bos
taurus, 97% to that of Ovis aries, 93% to that of Sus scrofa, 92%
to that of Equus caballus and 90% to that of Felis catus.
Conclusion: From the present study it can be concluded that
the PCR amplification procedure for target region of IL-8B
receptor gene yielding 459 bp products has been standardized,
which yielded consistent and specific amplification. Amplification
of partial IL-8B receptor gene (exon 2- 459 bp) using self
designed primers specific for cattle ortholog sequence signifies
that the locus is conserved in cattle and buffaloes. In
phylogenetic tree, the target sequence of IL-8B receptor gene of
Bubalus bubalis were found to be more closely related to Bos
indicus × Bos Taurus and Bos taurus than to Ovis aries and Sus
scrofa.
Keywords: CXCR2 gene, Murrah buffalo, phylogenetic
analysis.
