    Species-specific expression of major urinary proteins in the house mice (Mus musculus and Mus musculus domesticus)

  • Original language description

    The analysis of expression of pheromone-carrying major urinary proteins (MUPs) from two subspecies of house mice (Mus m. musculus, Mus m. domesticus) was studied. It has been previously shown that commensal populations of the two subspecies can discriminate on the basis of urinary signals. MUPs are predominant urinary proteins that protect pheromones from rapid degradation in a hydrophilic environment, and individuals of M m. musculus tend to rely on these urinary cues in the process of subspecies discrimination more than M m. domesticus individuals. Although it is not precisely known what triggers phenotypic and epigenetic changes of MUP expression, our results show that in the subspecies M m. musculus, sex is a significant factor influencing variations in the regulation of selected MUPs in the liver. Furthermore, male M m. musculus individuals expressed all the studied MUPs' mRNA significantly more than females or individuals of either sex in M m. domesticus. Correspondingly, the pat

    Druhově specifická exprese hlavních močových proteinů myší (Mus musculus and Mus musculus domesticus)

  • Czech description

    Hlavní močové proteiny (angl. Major Urinary Proteins, MUP) jsou proteinové přenašeče feromónů a byly zjištěny u mnoha druhů savců, především pak u myšovitých hlodavců. Tato práce předkládá důkaz o tom, že u dvou poddruhů myší (Mus musculus and Mus musculus domesticus) vykazují tyto proteiny pohlavní dimorfismus v expresi na úrovni mRNA transkribce a také na úrovni translace. Míra pohlavního dimorfismu je navíc pod-druhově specifická. Je velmi pravděpodobné, že tato proteiny jsou proto důležité pro mezidruhové rozpoznávání.
