Genotyping of Ryanodine receptor 1 (RYR1) gene associated with porcine stress syndrome in pig through high resolution melting combined with temperature-shift assay and allele-specific PCR Suparat Siemuang, Chirapiphat Phraephaisarn*, Rabuesak Khumthong, Panusanun Silamat, Mongkol Vesaratchavest, Rutjawate Taharnklaew Research and Development Center, Betagro Group, 136 Moo 9, Klong Nueng, Klong Luang, Pathumthani 12120, Thailand *e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Porcine stress syndrome (PSS) is an inherited, autosomal recessive disorder caused by a C1843T mutation in Ryanodine receptor 1 (RYR1) gene. The PSS commonly produces a severely pale, soft and exudative (PSE) meat due to a rapid reduction in muscle pH and degradation of its proteins and structure, which is usually rejected after inspection. A high resolution melting (HRM) method has been used as a high-throughput molecular genotyping approach for detection of variation on MAS marker associated with economic traits in pig for many years. Although the HRM is a capable method to identify mutation in the RYR1 gene, it is demonstrated that suboptimal mixtures fail to distinguish some genotypes due to small differences in traditional DNA melting profiles. Therefore, we conducted the HRM combined with temperature shift assay and allele- specific PCR (Tm-shift AS-PCR HRM) for amplifying the differences in DNA melting profiles between different genotypes of the gene. Firstly, classic PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was examined to detect RYR1 polymorphisms by determining the amplicon digested by HhaI enzyme. Then, direct sequencing was performed to confirm the polymorphism for 9 samples presented different PCR-RFLP patterns. Finally, the Tm-shift AS-PCR HRM assay was investigated to detect differences in melting profiles of the different genotype. Genotype discrimination of RYR1 gene was found to be exceptional when using the conducted assay. The difference in Tm acquired at each SNP was 1.7 OC and could easily distinguish the three different alleles. This approach manifested high-accuracy, repeatability, and reproducibility, compared to PCR-RFLP and direct sequencing approach. Hence, the method can potentially be suitable to use as large scale genotyping assay for the industrial pig farm. Keywords: HRM, AS-PCR, Temperature shift assay, RYR1, Pig Introduction Porcine stress syndrome (PSS) is an inherited, autosomal recessive disorder caused by a C1843T mutation in Ryanodine receptor 1 (RYR1) gene. The PSS commonly produces a severely pale, soft and exudative (PSE) meat due to a rapid reduction in muscle pH and degradation of its proteins and structure, which is usually rejected after inspection (Fujii et al., 1991). A rapid, reliable and cost-effectiveness genotyping method is crucially required to improve meat quality in genetic breeding program of commercial pig farms. Genetic variation at C1843T of RYR1 gene has been identified by various techniques such as PCRSSCP (Nakajima et al., 1996), PCR-RFLP (Otsu et al., 1992), and SnaPshot assay (Carolina 261 et al., 2007). Although, these two approaches are effective and sensitive, problems with reproducibility and costly of these techniques have been a major barricade, respectively. Therefore, most of researchers have widely employed PCR-RFLP using Hhal restriction enzyme for determining the C1843T variation in their experiments. This approach has been popular used for genotyping the variation in RYR1 gene; it is a time-consuming, laborious, and costly method, however. A high resolution melting (HRM) method, an alternative genotyping assay, is a simple, rapid, and sensitive closed-tube single step method which can reduce the risk of contamination. This approach has been used as a high-throughput molecular genotyping approach for detection of variation on MAS marker associated with economic traits such as RYR1, ESR, and TBC1D1 in pig for many years (Grievink and Stowell, 2008;Fontanesi et al,, 2011). Although the HRM is a capable method to identify mutation in the RYR1 gene, it is demonstrated that suboptimal mixtures fail to distinguish some genotypes due to small differences in traditional DNA melting profiles. Therefore, we conducted the HRM combined with temperature shift assay and allele- specific PCR for amplifying the differences in DNA melting profiles between different genotypes of the gene. This approach manifested high-accuracy, repeatability, and reproducibility, compared to PCR-RFLP and direct sequencing approach. Hence, the method can potentially be suitable to use as large scale genotyping assay for the industrial pig farm. Methodology Pig genomic DNA Preparation Genome DNA of whole blood samples from 90 commercial pigs were extracted using a Genomic DNA extraction Kit (RBCbioscience, Taiwan) by following the manufacturer’s guidelines. Nanodrop (Lifetechnologies, USA) was used to examine the quantity, purity, and integrity of purified DNA templates. The purified DNA was stored at -20°C until use. PCR-RFLP and DNA sequencing Genotypes of RYR1 gene were determined by the PCR-RFLP method according to Fujii et al. (1991). The PCR amplification was performed in 50 µl of total reaction containing 5.0 µl of 10xPCR Buffer, 0.6 µl of dNTP Mixture (2.5 pmol/µl), 0.5 µl of RYR1 F (10 pmol/µl), 0.5 µl of RYR1 R (10 pmol/µl), 10.0 µl of genomic DNA (5 ng/µl), 0.2 µl of Taq (5U/µl) and add ddH2O for the total volume. After PCR amplification, the PCR reaction was divided into two aliquots. One part was used for digestion with restriction endonuclease HhaI at 37° C for 4 h and then restricted fragments were separated using 1.5% agarose gel electrophoresis, stained with SYBR safe DNA gel stain and visualized under a UV transilluminator. The other part was purified with FavorPrepTM PCR purification kit (Favorgen Biotech Corporation, Taiwan) and sent for sequencing (Integrated DNA Technologies, Singapore). Tm-shift allele-specific (AS) PCR HRM assays In experimental step, 90 DNA of pigs were amplified using traditional HRM primer set and temperature shift tag primer set by LightCycler480 ® instrument (Roche, Germany). The amplifications of RYR1 gene were performed in total volume of 25 uL containing 50 ng pig genomic DNA, 1x PCR reaction buffer, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 0.1 mM dNTP, 0.2uM of forward and reverse primer, 0.5 U Taq DNA polymerase and 1x LightCycler®480 ResoLight dye. The amplification condition was 1 cycle of 5 min at 94°C; 30 cycles of 30 sec at 94°C; 40 sec at 60°C; 1 min at 72°C followed by HRMA ramping from 60°C to 99°C with 50 acquisitions 262 per 1°C where the melting curves were obtained. Variant scanning of RYR1 gene was carried out on LightCycler®480 Gene Scanning software (Roche, Germany). Samples generating different curve shapes and melting temperature in different graphs were classified as different RYR1 genotypes. Results Establishment of the genotyping based on Tm-shift AS-PCR HRM assays Genotyping based on traditional HRM assay and Tm-shift AS-PCR HRM assays was developed to discriminate SNP at C1843T reported to associate with PSS was chosen to assess the method. Three that represent each genotype (9 samples in total) were simultaneously confirmed variation in DNA sequence by PCR-RFLP and direct sequencing analysis. The confirmation of all represents showed a 100% concordance between using the PCR-RFLP and the direct DNA sequencing for SNP identification (Figure 1 and Figure 2, respectively). The confirmed samples were used as standard samples for methodological evaluation of Tm-shift AS-PCR HRM compared to traditional HRM assays. Primers of RYR1 gene were designed to maximize the differences in melting temperature bestowed by SNP. A traditional HRM obtained at each SNP less than 0.7OC. It was found to have lower discriminatory power than the conducted HRM (Figure 3). The conducted Tm-shift AS-PCR HRM approach can be used to clearly distinguish 3 genotypes for RYR1 gene based on melting curve analysis both for homozygotes and heterozygotes resulting from the differences in melting temperature value. This approach could more easily distinguish the three different alleles when compared with traditional HRM method. Figure 1: Identification of RYR1 gene genotype (C1843T) PCR-RFLP using HhaI enzyme. Normal genotype (NN or CC) generated two fragments of 493 and 166 bp, the homozygote mutated genotype (nn or TT) resulted in one fragment of 659 bp, and the heterozygote (Nn or CT) produced three fragments of 659, 493, and 166, respectively. 263 T C Figure 2: Example of sequence chromatogram of C1843T mutation of RYR1 gene.

Normal genotype (Blue), the homozygote mutated genotype (Green), and the heterozygote (Red). Evaluation of the established Tm-shift AS-PCR HRM assays Genotype discrimination of RYR1 gene was found to be exceptional when using the Tm-shift AS-PCR primers. The RYR1 gene containing the C allele gave a PCR amplicon with higher temperature peak (Tm around 81.4 OC) compared to the gene containing the T allele (Tm around 79.7 OC), indicating that the Tm-shift bases incorporated into the AS-PCR primer establishes clear identification between the two different allele specific PCR amplicon. Tmshift AS-PCR HRM assays was found to have an extremely high discriminatory power to discriminate the genotypes of RYR1 gene. The difference in Tm acquired at each SNP was 1.7 OC. Differences in shape of melting curve and difference plot analyzed by the Gene Scanning software (Roche, Germany) was successfully determined each SNP genotype in all 90 samples (Figure 4). 264 nn or TT NN or CC Nn or CT Figure 4: Melting curve analysis of variation in RYR1 gene using Tm-shift AS-PCR HRM from 90 pig DNA samples. Normal genotype (Blue), the homozygote mutated genotype (Green), and the heterozygote (Red). Discussion High valued SNP of RYR1 gene that was reported as potential MAS marker for PSS was chosen to design this discriminatory assay. The Tm-shift assay with AS-PCR primer is a powerful method that could be combined with HRM to amplify and score the SNP of the gene compared with conventional method as PCR-RFLP relied on time-consuming, laborious, and costly method. This approach exhibited a reliable, high accuracy, and rapid method for genotyping of the RYR1 gene. Moreover, higher temperature peak generated by the approach can be employed to prevent genotyping failure from fluctuation associated with minimal differences in suboptimal mixtures resulting from erroneous of manual pipetting technique. In addition, we highlight that this potential approach is capable to develop as valuable tool for the genotyping of other candidate genes associated with economic traits in pigs and could potentially be suitable to use as large scale genotyping assay for the industrial pig farms. 265 References Carolino, I., Vicente, A., Sousa, C.O. and Gama, L.T. 2007.
