Candidate Genes
A search for candidate genes was performed using DU6 and DU6i high body weight selection lines and lean unselected lines DUKs and DBA/2. RNA from epididymal fat tissue of 20 males from each line (DU6, DU6i, DUKs and DBA2/J) was pooled for analysis in Affymetrix GeneChips and resulted in the identification of 77 differentially expressed candidate genes. Of these, 14 genes are located in QTLs intervals affecting body weight and abdominal fat weight. Mapping and Phenotype information for this QTL, its variants and associated markersJ:49578F2-intercross pedigree analysis of progeny from crosses between a single male of the outbred mouse line DU6 (selected for high body weight) and a DUKs female (a randomly mated control line) was used to map quantitative trait loci (QTL). A QTL linked with body weight, Bw4, was placed at 42 cM in the vicinity of D11Mit120 on mouse Chromosome 11. A QTL associated with abdominal fat weight, Afw5, was placed at 6 cM. A QTL associated with liver weight, Lwq4, was placed at 50 cM. A QTL linked with speen weight, Swq1, was placed at 52 cM. |
