영양학적으로 매우 우수한 부존자원이라 할 수 있는 닭 간의 이용 가능성을 검토하기 위하여 alkaline protease로 가수분해 시켰다. 가수분해시 최적조건을 파악하기 위하여 온도, 시간, pH 및 효소 첨가량(E/S ratio)의 조건을 검토하고 수분과 기름의 흡수성, 유화활성, 점도등의 기능성을 조사하였으며 냄새와 색에 대한 관능검사를 시행하였다. Alkaline protease로 닭 간 단백질을 가수분해 시켰을 때 온도 $60^{\circ}C$, pH8.0에서 최대활성을 나타내었고, 효소의 첨가량이 증가할수록 가수분해도는 증가하였다. 수분과 기름의 흡수성은 수분 흡수성에 있어서 0시간에서만 낮은 값을 보여주었고 반응시간이 지날수록 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또한 점도는 증가하였다. 가수분해 1/2시간에서 유화활성도는 가장 낮았고 수분흡수력은 높았으며 1시간 이후에는 시료간에 큰 차이가 없었다. 동결건조된 닭 간 단백질 가수분해물의 냄새와 색깔에 대한 관능평가에서는 별차이가 없었으나 색깔에서는 밝기와 붉은색에서 유의성이 있었으며 가수 분해는 닭 간의 밝기를 증가시키면서 녹색을 약간 있게함을 알 수 있었다.

Objective: Tibetan chickens, which have unique adaptations to extreme high-altitude environments, exhibit phenotypic and physiological characteristics that are distinct from those of lowland chickens. However, the mechanisms underlying hypoxic adaptation in the liver of chickens remain unknown. Methods: RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) technology was used to assess the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) involved in hypoxia adaptation in highland chickens (native Tibetan chicken [HT]) and lowland chickens (Langshan chicken [LS], Beijing You chicken [BJ], Qingyuan Partridge chicken [QY], and Chahua chicken [CH]). Results: A total of 352 co-DEGs were specifically screened between HT and four native lowland chicken breeds. Gene ontology and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes enrichment analyses indicated that these co-DEGs were widely involved in lipid metabolism processes, such as the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) signaling pathway, fatty acid degradation, fatty acid metabolism and fatty acid biosynthesis. To further determine the relationship from the 352 co-DEGs, protein-protein interaction network was carried out and identified eight genes (ACSL1, CPT1A, ACOX1, PPARC1A, SCD, ACSBG2, ACACA, and FASN) as the potential regulating genes that are responsible for the altitude difference between the HT and other four lowland chicken breeds. Conclusion: This study provides novel insights into the molecular mechanisms regulating hypoxia adaptation via lipid metabolism in Tibetan chickens and other highland animals.

Objective: Vanin-1 (VNN1) is a pantetheinase that catalyses the hydrolysis of pantetheine to produce pantothenic acid and cysteamine. Our previous studies have shown that the VNN1 is specifically expressed in chicken liver which negatively regulated by microRNA-122. However, the functions of the VNN1 in lipid metabolism in chicken liver haven't been elucidated. Methods: First, we detected the VNN1 mRNA expression in 4-week chickens which were fasted 24 hours. Next, knocked out VNN1 via CRISPR/Cas9 system in the chicken Leghorn Male Hepatoma cell line. Detected the lipid deposition via oil red staining and analysis the content of triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein-C (LDL-C), and high-density lipoprotein-C (HDL-C) after VNN1 knockout in Leghorn Male Hepatoma cell line. Then we captured various differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between VNN1-modified LMH cells and original LMH cells by RNA-seq. Results: Firstly, fasting-induced expression of VNN1. Meanwhile, we successfully used the CRISPR/Cas9 system to achieve targeted mutations of the VNN1 in the chicken LMH cell line. Moreover, the expression level of VNN1 mRNA in LMH-KO-VNN1 cells decreased compared with that in the wild-type LMH cells (p<0.0001). Compared with control, lipid deposition was decreased after knockout VNN1 via oil red staining, meanwhile, the contents of TG and LDL-C were significantly reduced, and the content of HDL-C was increased in LMH-KO-VNN1 cells. Transcriptome sequencing showed that there were 1,335 DEGs between LMH-KO-VNN1 cells and original LMH cells. Of these DEGs, 431 were upregulated, and 904 were downregulated. Gene ontology analyses of all DEGs showed that the lipid metabolism-related pathways, such as fatty acid biosynthesis and long-chain fatty acid biosynthesis, were enriched. KEGG pathway analyses showed that "lipid metabolism pathway", "energy metabolism", and "carbohydrate metabolism" were enriched. A total of 76 DEGs were involved in these pathways, of which 29 genes were upregulated (such as cytochrome P450 family 7 subfamily A member 1, ELOVL fatty acid elongase 2, and apolipoprotein A4) and 47 genes were downregulated (such as phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1) by VNN1 knockout in the LMH cells. Conclusion: These results suggest that VNN1 plays an important role in coordinating lipid metabolism in the chicken liver.

Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) promote the development of brain and vision of the fetus, relieve inflammation, inhibit oral dysplasia of rumor cell, decrease the incidence of cardiovascular disease and regulate arrhythmia. ${\Delta}-6$ desaturase is the rate-limited enzyme in the desaturation process. This study reports the cloning, characterization and tissue expression of a ${\Delta}-6$ desaturase gene in the chicken. PCR primers were designed based on the predicted sequence of chicken ${\Delta}-6$ desaturase (accession number: XM421053) and used to isolate a cDNA fragment of 1,323 bp from chicken liver. Based on the 1,323 bp fragment an EST (BI390105) was obtained by BLAST. The EST and 5'nd of the 1,323 bp fragment were partially overlapped. Gene specific primers derived from the EST were used for amplification of the 5'nd. Another gene-specific primer derived from the 1,323 bp fragment was used for amplification of the 3'nd by 3'ACE. Then the three overlapping cDNA sequences obtained were assembled with DNAMAN software and a full-length ${\Delta}-6$ desaturase of 2,153 bp was obtained. The full-length cDNA contained an ORF of 1,335 bp with a 5'ntranslated region of 147 nucleotides followed by an ATG initiation codon. Stop codon TGA was at position 1,481-1,483 bp. The deduced amino acids shared an homology above 77% with bovine, mice, orangutan, rat and human. The protein sequence had three histidine-rich regions HDFGH (HisI region), HFQHH (HisII region) and HH (HisIII region), a cytochrome $b_{5}$-like domain containing a heme-binding motif and two transmembrane domains. Sequence analysis of the chicken genomic DNA revealed that the coding sequence of chicken ${\Delta}-6$ desaturase included 12 exons and 11 introns. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR showed that the ${\Delta}-6$ desaturase expression levels were in turn liver, spleen, pancreas, lung, breast muscle, heart, and abdominal fat. The expression of ${\Delta}-6$ desaturase in liver was significantly higher than that in breast muscle (p<0.01). The expression of ${\Delta}-6$ desaturase in lung was significantly higher than that in abdominal fat (p<0.01). This is the first clone of chicken ${\Delta}-6$ desaturase.

Nuclei proteins were purified from chick liver to homogeneity by means of acid extraction CM Sephadex c 25 column chromatography and Bio Rex 70 column chromatography, The molecular weight of liver Nuclei proteins 1 and 2 as estimated by electrophoresis on SDS-polycrylamide gel are 29000 and 27,000 respectively. These molecular weights are identical with those of Nuclei Proteins 1 and 2 isolated from chick erythrocyte. The liver and erythrocyte Nuclei Proteins also co-migrated in acetic acid-urea gel electrophoresis. Furthermore the anti-sera raised against liver Nuclei Proteins 1 and 2 cross-reacted with erythrocyte Nuclei Proteins 1 and 2 respectively, However the amino acid compositions of liver Nuclei Prooteins 1 and 2 were found to be different from those of corresponding erythrocyte Nuclei proteins ; the contents of serine and proline in liver Nuclei proteins were higherocyte Nuclei proteins ; the contents of serine and proline in liver Nuclei protesins were higher than those in erythrocyte Nuclei proteins while the content of lycsine in liver Nuclei proteins was lower than the erythrocyte Nuclei proteins, These results suggest that in spite of similarities in many respects the liver and erythrocyte Nuclei proteins in chicks and different proteins.
