Annotation

Sus scrofa is an important agricultural species, which has been a reliable source of protein for humanity for the last 8-10 thousand years from the time of domestication. The digestive system, kidneys, vascular structures and respiration rates of omnivorous pigs are similar to humans. Pigs are used as a model organism in the study of obesity, cardiovascular, endocrinological diseases including diabetes, alcoholism, nephropathy, as well as in the organ transplantation. They are a good object for the study of obesity, gynecological and infectious diseases in humans.

Since pigs exist in both wild and domestic populations that differ in phenotype and karyotype, the pig remains an attractive model for domestication. According to different calculations there are more than 100 breeds of pigs in the world today. The worlds population of pigs is over 1 billion. The haploid genome of Sus scrofa is 2,800 MB. The diploid genome is organized into 18 pairs of autosomes and two sex chromosomes. The results of the first sequencing of the pig’s genome, namely, that one of the sow of the Duroc breed, are presented in the ncbi database.

According to the ncbi database, the size of Sus scrofa’s genome is 2,457,910 pairs of nucleotides (it’s corresponding to the mammals’ genome, for example, 2,649,530 pairs of nucleotides in cattle). The size of the mitochondrial genome is 16,770 pairs of nucleotides (16,340 in cattle). The 1st chromosome has the largest nucleotide composition of 274,330 pairs of nucleotides, which is significantly higher than the 1st chromosome of cattle (158,340). The X-chromosome has 125,940 pairs of nucleotides, while the chromosome 18 (55,980) and the Y-chromosome (43,550) are the smallest among the autosomes.

In order to provide the international coordination, the consortium for sequencing the genome sequence of pigs (SGSC), created by the representatives of academic, government and industry organizations, has been successfully operating since September 2003.

Various resources have been developed in recent years to identify the genes associated with certain mutations and search the individual genes with quantitative traits loci (QTL).

Today, the QTL database contains data on 27,465 loci of Sus scrofa, which are associated with 663 different quantitative traits. The database is filled with data from 620 publications, it facilitates the process of comparing, verifying, finding and the most likely location of genes, as well as describes the data that can be analyzed by means of the resources from the other databases using the appropriate tools on those sites.

Animal QTLdb tools allow to compare data between the QTL/phenotype by association and comparison of these data with different genome characteristics. The Online Mendelian Inheritance in Animals (OMIA) database contains information on the cattle’s characteristics that are inherited by Mendels laws (phene). For April 2018, 253 characteristics of pigs were described in this database, 109 of them are considered as potential models for the researches on human diseases.
