摘要

Background: Molecular characterization of MAOA gene was performed to investigate aggressivebehaviour within wild (lion, leopard, and wolf) as opposed to docile animal (sheep, goat) speciesliving in different habitats, by undertaking sequence diversity analysis of this gene.Methods: The MAOA gene was partially amplified by PCR for wild and docile animal species. AmplifiedDNA was sequenced and then analyzed using BioEdit and Sequencher softwares, while multiple sequencealignment and phylogenetics analysis were conducted through MEGA software. Bioinformatics tool likeProsite scan, Motif Scan and Prot Param were used to study properties of mutant proteins of MAOA gene.Results: Different polymorphic sites were observed which included c.956, c.1063 in docile animals andc.2530 in wild animals. Phylogenetic analysis based on this candidate gene endorsed the existing taxonomyof subject animals, while bioinformatics tools explored the altered characteristics of mutantprotein.Conclusion: The newly found polymorphic loci in wild and docile animals in this study could have a rolein behavioral response and acclimatization within their peculiar habitats. This study also highlights thegenetic diversity of MAOA gene, which will add knowledge to the existing animal genetic resource ofPakistan.
