摘　　要：黑素皮质素1型受体(melanocortin 1 receptor,MC1R)基因具有调节哺乳动物细胞黑色素形成的作用,因此被认为是影响犬毛色的重要候选基因。基于NCBI数据库上发表的犬等10个动物种MC1R的氨基酸序列和cDNA序列,利用生物学软件和网络信息资源,对犬等10种脊椎动物进行了分子进化分析。结果表明:(1)基于MC1R氨基酸序列的聚类分析显示,10个物种明显归为2类,7个哺乳动物种为一紧密类群,鸡与斑马鱼和河豚为一松散类群,该聚类结果与公认的动物分类及进化关系密切吻合;(2)PAML的Branch模型预测显示,犬、猪、猫在与牛的分化过程中MC1R受到正向选择作用(ω=90.8177);Site模型预测显示,犬MC1R的2V、25E、184N、197V、314L为正选择氨基酸位点;(3)染色体连锁群比较分析显示,"ZFP276-MC1R-GAS8"基因连锁关系在人、黑猩猩、鸡和犬中保持一致。Melanocorfin 1 receptor （MC1R） gene regulates pigment synthesis in mammals, and therefore is regarded as an important candidate gene for dog coat color. Based on MC1R amino acids and cDNA sequences of 10 vertebrate animals released by NCBI, molecular evolution of dog MCIR gene was analyzed with bioinformatic software and intemet resource. Results showed that 10 vertebrate animals were divided into two major groups, a compact group A （7 mammals） and an incompact group B （chicken, zebrafish and fugu）. This phylogenetic tree was consistent with putative evolutionary relationship within these 10 species. Positive selection was detected during the evolutionary process of dog （also cat and pig） from cattle by PAML branch model （ω= 90.8177）, and five amino acids of 2V, 25E, 184N, 197V and 314L of dog MC1R were predicted untier positive selection by site model. Comparative linkage analysis of chromosome showed that ＂ZFP276-MCIR-GAS8＂ linkage group was conservative in human, chimpanzee, chicken and dog.
