Abstract
Two distinct transcripts for equine X- and Y-chromosomal amelogenin genes were cloned from male and female fetal ameloblast cDNA libraries. The complete nucleotide sequence of equine X-chromosomal amelogenin cDNA was 696 -base-pairs (bp) that encodes a protein with 192 amino acid residues. The deletion of 24bp was found in the fifth exon of equine Y-chromosomal amelogenin gene. The genomic DNAs of equine male and female were amplified by the polymerase chain reaction using a pair of nucleotide primers from an X/Y-homologous region of amelogenin gene. The PCR product from mare genomic DNA revealed a single band (184bp) corresponding to the X-chromosome by 4% agar gel electrophoresis. And the PCR products from stallion and gelding genomic DNA showed three bands which were two distinct bands (184bp and 160bp) with X-and Y-chromosome and an additional band (-200bp) of heteroduplex. This PCR polymorphism of X-and Y-chromosomal amelogenin genes enabled sex determination of single sperm as well as equine culture cells.
