Abstract: 【Objective】The study was aimed to clone the Sycp2 gene sequence of cattle, yak and cattle-yak, investigate the gene structures and its tissue-expression patterns and testicular expression levels in cattle, yak and cattle-yak.【Method】 In silico cloning and clone sequencing were applied to acquire the coding region sequences of Sycp2 gene of cattle, yak and yak-cattle, and molecular characterization were analyzed by bioinformatics software. RT-PCR was applied to analyze the tissue-expression patterns, and real-time PCR was employed to examine the expression levels in cattle, yak and cattle-yak testis.【Result】The full length of the coding region sequences of the Sycp2 gene was 4 365 bp, named b-Sycp2. The b-Sycp2 gene in cattle, yak and cattle-yak encoded 1 454 amino acid residues which included some typical domains such as coiled-coil domain. RT-PCR analysis showed that b-Sycp2 gene was expressed only in the testis. Real-time PCR analysis revealed that the mRNA expression level of b-Sycp2 gene in the testis of cattle and yak was remarkably higher than that of in cattle-yak (P＜0.05). 【Conclusion】The b-Sycp2 gene was cloned successfully, and it expressed only in testis, b-Sycp2 mRNA expression level of cattle and yak represented a dramatic higher than that of cattle-yak.
