LEGAL MEDICINE 15(6) 303-309 2013年11月 査読有り責任著者To develop DNA markers for forensic analysis, we examined the hypervariable region 1 (HVR1) sequences of 447 pure-bred domestic dogs (Canis lupus familiaris) that had been bred and raised in Japan. HVR1 is a 660-bp stretch of mitochondrial (mt) DNA. Among the 447 HVR1 sequences examined, we identified 58 haplotypes from 47 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and two insertion-deletion (InDel) polymorphisms. The haplotype diversity inferred from inter-breed analysis (N = 154, 88 breeds) was 0.929 +/- 0.011. Intra-breed analysis showed that the haplotype diversity of Golden Retrievers (N = 53), Labrador Retrievers (N = 67), Miniature Dachshunds (N = 61), Toy Poodles (N = 62), and Welsh Corgis (N = 50) was 0.624 +/- 0.052, 0.722 +/- 0.029, 0.922 +/- 0.010, 0.877 +/- 0.020, and 0.443 +/- 0.084, respectively. The results of this genotype analysis were used to construct a dataset consisting of dog mtDNA HVR1 sequences for use in forensic applications in Japan. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

COMMUNITY GENETICS 11(3) 150-159 2008年 査読有り責任著者Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate genetic heterogeneity among local Japanese populations. Methods: We performed a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) study of four demographically distinct local populations (population 1: a large city; population 2: isolated islands; populations 3 and 4: rural areas). Seventy SNPs in a region spanning 5 Mb of chromosome 17 known to be a candidate region for essential hypertension were genotyped and linkage disequilibrium analyses were performed. Results: Statistical analyses of SNP allele frequencies and haplotype distribution showed significant divergence among the populations, mostly between population 2 and the other populations. Pairwise D' declined with increasing population size, and smaller populations retained a high linkage disequilibrium. Conclusion: Population 2 is likely to have a different ancestry from the majority of the Japanese population, whereas the heterogeneity among the other populations may result from differences in population size or geographic background.

GENE 299(1-2) 165-172 2002年10月The mouse genomic sequence of the region containing the gene Rhced, the orthologue to the human gene RH30, was determined to elucidate the structure of Rhced and its flanking regions and to compare these with the corresponding human genomic region. Two genes, Smpl and AK003528 (an orthologue of FLJ10747), flank Rhced. Neither sequences homologous to the characteristic nucleotide elements flanking the RHD gene in humans (rhesus boxes) nor an additional Rh gene were found within the mouse region sequenced. This result and that of a previous report demonstrate that this chromosomal region of the mouse comprises five genes (FLJI0747-RHCE-SMP1-NPD014-P29) that exhibit syntenic homology with the corresponding human region, which suggests that the RHD gene and rhesus boxes were inserted later. Evaluations of tissue distribution and subcellular localization of these genes indicate that the SMPI orthologue has a ubiquitous tissue distribution and cytoplasmic localization, whereas AK003528 is expressed slightly higher in testis with a strong subcellular localization in the nucleus. Despite the steady improvements in the draft sequence of the human genome, this study demonstrates the continuing benefits of comparative genetic analyses in increasing our understanding of human genomic structure.
