Prion diseases (for example: scrape of sheep, BSE, CJD of humans) are among the most notable central nervous system degenerative disorders caused by the accumulation of modified cellular protein. The conversion of PrP(C) (the normal cellular protein) into PrP(Sc) (the abnormal disease-causing isoform) involves a conformation change whereby the ?-helical content diminishes and the amount of ? sheet increases. PrP (Sc) is partially resistant to proteases, temperature, high and low pH. Because the incidence of prion diseases is due to several factors, various efforts need to be taken to reduce the scale and consequences of the disease. They include post-mortem and in vivo diagnosis and prophylactics, i.e. monitoring of animals and feed control.

Polymorphism of 11 microsatellite DNA loci was analysed in Polish Red (PR), Hereford and Holstein-Friesian (HF) cattle raised in Poland and genetic distance among these breeds was determined. At the 11 loci (TGLA227, BM2113, TGLA53, ETH10, SPS115, TGLA126, TGLA122, INRA23, ETH3, ETH225 and BM1824) analysed with automated DNA sizing technology, a total of 213 alleles were identified: 76 in PR, 76 in HF, and 61 in Hereford. All the microsatellite DNA markers showed high polymorphism. Polymorphism information content (PIC) calculated for each marker exceeded 0.5, except for the ETH3 locus in Hereford cattle (PIC=0.475), and heterozygosity (H) ranged from 54.1% to as much as 85.2%. The coefficient of genetic distance was 0.354 between PR and Hereford, 0.414 between HF and Hereford, and 0.416 between PR and HF cattle.

In this study we microdissected the proximal part band Xq24 of the bovine X chromosome long arm, in which the Xist gene is located in cattle. The obtained DNA fragment was PCR amplified, labelled and used as a probe for cattle, sheep and goat chromosomes. In cattle, as expected, distinct hybridization signals were observed on Xq24. The painting signals were also observed on Xq24 in sheep and goat. The chromosome painting probes can be used for comparative mapping and searching for internal X chromosome rearrangements in Bovidea and may contribute to the understanding of mammalian sex chromosome evolution.
