Abstract

Bovine αs1-casein F (αs1-CN F) was found in a genetic resource of Deutsches Schwarzbuntes Niederungsrind cows at a frequency of 0·009. Biochemical characterization of this new variant was obtained by automated sequencing of reversed-phase HPLC-separated tryptic peptides of αs1-CN F and αs1-CN B. αs1-CN F was found to be a subtype of αs1-CN B with a single amino acid substitution (SerP/Leu) in position 66. DNA sequencing revealed a C/T transition in position 8418 of the gene. Sequence-specific primers were designed to perform an allele-specific polymerase chain reaction for detection of αs1CnF. Typing of artificial insemination sperm samples included in the genetic resource sperm pool identified one sire heterozygous for αs1CnF.
