随着草鱼养殖规模的扩大, 草鱼的病毒性疾病极大地影响着草鱼的产量。开展鱼类病毒免疫反应相关功能基因的研究意义重大。研究首先通过同源克隆的方法从草鱼中克隆到了一段Prkrip1基因的EST序列, 进一步通过RACE、长片段PCR和Genome walking的方法获得了该基因的全长cDNA序列、基因组DNA序列和启动子区序列。氨基酸序列分析显示, Prkrip1含有3个核定位信号和一个双链RNA结合区, 并具有与PKR结合的保守N端区; 荧光报告基因的表达证实我们所克隆到的启动子区是有活性的, 可用于后续该基因的转录调控分析; Real-time PCR分析发现, Prkrip1 基因在草鱼的肝和血中表达量最高, GCRV感染后在大部分免疫组织中均上调表达, 说明该基因确实与病毒感染相关。研究结果为Prkrip1基因在硬骨鱼类的功能研究提供了线索, 也为鱼类天然免疫反应中调控PKR信号通路的系统研究提供了理论依据。

Two full-length cDNAs encoding glutathione S-transferase (GST) were cloned and sequenced from the hepatopancreas of planktivorous silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) and bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis). The silver carp and bighead carp GST cDNA were 920 and 978 bp in length, respectively, and both contained an open reading frame that encoding 223 amino acids. Partial GST cDNA sequences were also obtained from the liver of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus), crucian carp (Carassius auratu), mud carp (Cirrhinus molitorella), and tilapia (Oreochromis nilotica). All these GSTs could be classified as alpha-class GSTs on the basis of their amino acid sequence identity with other species. The three-dimensional structure of the silver carp GST was predicted using a computer program, and was found to fit the classical two-domain GST structure. Using the genome walker method, a 875-bp 5'-flanking region of the silver carp GST gene was obtained, and several lipopolysaccharide (LPS) response elements were identified in the promoter region of the phytoplanktivorous fish GST gene, indicating that the GST gene expression of this fish might be regulated by LPS, released from the toxic blue-green algae producing microcystins. To compare the constitutive expression level of the liver GST gene among the six freshwater fishes with completely different tolerance to microcystins, beta-actin was used as control and the ratio GST/beta-actin mRNA (%) was determined as 130.7 +/- 6.6 (grass carp), 103.1 +/- 8.9 (bighead carp), 92.6 +/- 15.0 (crucian carp), 72.3 +/- 7.8 (mud carp), 58.8 +/- 11.5 (silver carp), and 33.6 +/- 13.7 (tilapia). The constitutive expression level of the liver GST gene clearly shows that all the six freshwater fishes had a negative relationship with their tolerance to microcystins: high-resistant fishes (phytoplanktivorous silver carp and tilapia) had the lowest tolerance to microcystins and the high-sensitive fish (herbivorous grass carp) had the highest tolerance to microcystins. Taken together with the reciprocal relationship of constitutive and inducible liver GST expression level in some of the tested fish species to microcystin exposure, a molecular mechanism for different microcystin detoxification abilities of the warm freshwater fishes was discussed. 相似文献

Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) protect cell from oxidative stress by preventing the irreversible loss of vital proteins and facilitating their subsequent regeneration. Silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus), and Nile tilapia (Oreochromis nilotica) are three warm freshwater fishes with differential tolerance to microcystin-LR (MC-LR). Full-length cDNAs encoding the HSP70 were cloned from the livers of the three fishes. The HSP70 cDNAs of silver carp, grass carp, and Nile tilapia were 2356, 2348, and 2242 bp in length and contained an open-reading frame of 1950 bp (encoding a polypeptide of 649 amino acids), 1950 bp (649 amino acids), and 1917 bp (638 amino acids), respectively. Like mammalian HSP70, the HSP70 of the three fish was also composed of an ATPase domain from residues 1 to 383 (44 kDa), substrate peptide binding domain from residues 384 to 544 (18 kDa), and a C-terminus domain from residues 545 to 649 (10 kDa). The relatively high conservation of HSP70 sequences among different vertebrates is consistent with their important role in fundamental cellular processes. Using beta-actin as an external control, RT-PCR within the exponential phase was conducted to determine the constitutive and inducible expression level of HSP70 gene among the three fishes (6-12 g) intraperitoneally injected with MC-LR (50 μg kg(-1) body weight). Both constitutive and inducible liver mRNA levels of the fish HSP70 genes showed positive relationships with their tolerance to MC-LR: highest in Nile tilapia, followed by silver carp, and lowest in grass carp. The differential expression pattern of liver HSP70 genes in the three fish indicated a potential role of HSP70 in the detoxification process of MC-LR. 相似文献

Innate immunity is expected to be very important in fish. Mannose-bingding lectin (MBL) participates in the innate immune system as an activator of the complement system and as an opsonin after binding to certain carbohydrate structures on microorganisms. In this experiment, total mRNA was isolated from spleen, liver, gills, thymus, head kidney and kidney of adult and immature grass carp Ctenopharygodon idllus. The cDNA of MBL was obtained by RT-PCR using total mRNA from the spleen of carp as template. Such cDNA was labled with ^32p and used as probe for Northern analysis, and autoradiographic signals were quantified by densitometry analysis. The results showed that MBL was high expressed in the spleen and liver and low in gills, thymus, head kidney and kidney of adult grass carp, and MBL was much lower expressed in spleen and liver of immature grass carp than those of adult grass carp. The results might partially explain why immature grass carp are vulnerable to grass carp hemorrhage virus (GCHV) whereas adult grass carp are not.This suggested that MBL mav be an imoortant anti-GCHV factor [Acta Zoologica Sinica 50 (1): 137 - 140. 2004]. 相似文献

Cloning and expression analysis of a HSP70 gene from Pacific abalone (Haliotis discus hannai) 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), the primary member of HSPs that are responsive of thermal stress, is found in all multicellular organisms and functions mostly as molecular chaperon. The inducible HSP70 cDNA cloned from Pacific abalone (Haliotis discus hannai) using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE), was highly homologous to other HSP70 genes. The full-length cDNA of the Pacific abalone HSP70 was 2631bp, consisting of a 5'-terminal untranslated region (UTR) of 90bp, a 3'-terminal UTR of 573bp with a canonical polyadenylation signal sequence AATAAA and a poly (A) tail, and an open reading frame of 1968bp. The HSP70 cDNA encoded a polypeptide of 655 amino acids with an ATPase domain of 382 amino acids, the substrate peptide binding domain of 161 amino acids and a C-terminus domain of 112 amino acids. The temporal expression of HSP70 was measured by semi-quantitative RT-PCR after heat shock and bacterial challenge. Challenge of Pacific abalone with heat shock or the pathogenic bacteria Vibrio anguillarum resulted in a dramatic increase in the expression of HSP70 mRNA level in muscle, followed by a recovery to normal level after 96h. Unlike the muscle, the levels of HSP70 expression in gills reached the top at 12h and maintained a relatively high level compared with the control after thermal and bacterial challenge. The upregulated mRNA expression of HSP70 in the abalone following heat shock and infection response indicates that the HSP70 gene is inducible and involved in immune response. 相似文献

Molecular cloning, mRNA expression, and characterization of heat shock protein 10 gene from humphead snapper Lutjanus sanguineus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Heat shock protein 10 (HSP10) gene of humphead snapper (Lutjanus sanguineus), designated as ByHSP10, was cloned by rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) techniques with the primers designed from the known EST sequence identified from the subtracted cDNA library of the head kidney of humphead snapper. Sequence analysis showed the full length cDNA of ByHSP10 was 529 bp, containing a 5′ terminal untranslated region (UTR) of 51 bp, a 3′ terminal UTR of 181 bp, and an open reading frame (ORF) of 297 bp encoding a polypeptide of 99 amino acids. Based on the deduced amino acid sequence, the theoretical molecular mass of ByHSP10 was calculated to be 10.92 kDa with an isoelectric point of 9.46. Moreover, chaperonins hsp10/cpn10 signature was found in the amino acids sequence of ByHSP10 by PredictProtein. BLAST analysis revealed that the amino acids of ByHSP10 had the highest homology of 88% compared with other HSP10s. Fluorescent real-time quantitative RT-PCR was used to examine the expression of ByHSP10 gene in eight kinds of tissues of humphead snapper after the challenge with Vibrio harveyi. There was a clear time-dependent expression pattern of ByHSP10 in head kidney, spleen and thymus after bacteria challenge. The expression of mRNA reached the maximum level at the time point of 9 h, 6 h and 24 h, respectively and then returned to control level in 36 h. The up-regulated mRNA expression of ByHSP10 in humphead snapper after bacteria challenge indicated that the HSP10 gene was inducible and might be involved in immune response. A phylogenetic tree was constructed based on the ORF nucleotide sequences of HSP10 for 30 species. The relatonships among them were generally in agreement with the traditional taxonomy which suggested that HSP10 genes could aid in the system classification research. 相似文献

QM, a novel gene that was originally identified as a tumor suppressor, has been cloned from species encompassing members of higher vertebrate, plant and fungal kingdoms, but it is not well documented in fish. In present study, a gene homologous to QM was obtained from grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) head kidney and spleen cDNA library. The full-length grass carp QM (GcQM) cDNA of 759 bp contains a short 5' UTR of 22 bp, a 3' UTR of 89 bp and an open reading frame of 648 nucleotides that translates into a 215-amino acid peptide with a molecular weight of 24.5 kDa. The predicted GcQM contains a series of functional motifs that belong to the QM family signature conserved among different species. Multiple alignment analysis reveals that GcQM shares an overall identity of 62.4% approximately 97.7% with other members of QM family. The fish QM has a closest genetic relationship to chicken homologue Jif-1. The GcQM expresses constitutively in spleen, heart and brain, and significantly up-regulated by Aeromonas hydrophila and grass carp haemorrhagic virus (GCHV) in head kidney, spleen and liver. The results suggest that grass carp QM homolog is an inflammatory stress inducible gene associated with anti-bacterial and viral defense, and it plays an important role in immune defense. 相似文献

In mammals, pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a potent anti-inflammatory factor, showing that it inhibits the expression and release of proinflammatory cytokines and enhances the production of anti-inflammatory factors. However, whether fish PACAP plays similar regulatory roles as seen in mammals remains unclear. In the present study, expression of PACAP-specific receptor PAC1-R was shown in grass carp head kidney and spleen, supporting that PACAP may have a direct effect on fish immune cells. To test this hypothesis, the immunoregulatory role of grass carp PACAP (gcPACAP) was examined in head kidney leucocytes (HKLs). Results showed that gcPACAP inhibited basal and further attenuated lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated cell viability of HKLs, indicating that gcPACAP may possess similar inhibitory property at cellular level as seen in mammals. Curiously, in vitro and in vivo studies revealed that gcPACAP stimulated proinflammatory factors (IL-1β and TNF-α) but not IL-10 mRNA expression in HKLs and head kidney. Moreover, bacterial infection and LPS enhanced IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-10 mRNA expression in grass carp head kidney and HKLs, respectively, and these stimulatory effects were not influenced by gcPACAP. These findings suggest that PACAP plays distinct roles, at least does not function as an anti-inflammatory factor, in fish compared with that in mammals. 相似文献

The full-length cDNA of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) and silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) was obtained from liver. The grass carp UCP2 cDNA was determined to be 1152 bp in length with an open reading frame that encodes 310 amino acids. Five introns (Intron 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7) in the translated region, and partial sequence of Intron 2 in the untranslated region of grass carp UCP2 gene were also obtained. Gene structure comparison between grass carp and mammalian (human and mouse) UCP2 gene shows that, the UCP2 gene structure of grass carp is much similar to that of human and mouse. Partial UCP2 cDNA sequences of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) and mud carp (Cirrhinus molitorella), were further determined. Together with the common carp (Cyprinus carpio) UCP2 sequence from GenBank (AJ243486), multiple alignment result shows that the nucleotide and amino acid sequences of the UCP2 gene, were highly conserved among the five major Chinese carps that belong to four subfamilies. Using beta-actin as control, the ratio UCP2/beta-actin mRNA (%) was determined to be 149.4 +/- 15.6 (common carp), 127.4 +/- 22.1(mud carp), 96.7 +/- 12.7 (silver carp), 94.1 +/- 26.8 (bighead carp) and 63.7 +/- 16.2 (grass carp). The relative liver UCP2 expression of the five major Chinese carps, shows a close relationship with their food habit: benthos and detritus-eating fish (common carp and mud carp) > planktivorious fish (silver carp and bighead carp) > herbivorous fish (grass carp). We suggest that liver UCP2 might be important for Chinese carps to detoxify cyanotoxins and bacteria in debris and plankton food. 相似文献

The Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) is activated by single strand RNA and RNA-like compounds (imidazoquinoline), and it induces interferon production. We identified and described carp TLR7 cDNA and its mRNA expression. The full-length cDNA of carp TLR7 gene is 3427 bp, encoding 1049 amino acids (AB553573). The similarities of carp TLR7 with zebrafish, rainbow trout, fugu, and human TLR7 were 89.6, 83.4, 80.6 and 74.6%, respectively, at the amino acid sequence level. Furthermore, the expression of TLR7 mRNA was investigated in normal tissues of carp by semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis. Carp TLR7 expression was exhibited in healthy tissues (kidney, brain, spleen, skin, intestine, muscle, liver, gills and heart) and though the expression level in each tissue varied among healthy fish. Carp TLR7 expression was significantly increased in head kidney stimulated with TLR7 agonist, imiquimod, at 8, 24 and 48 h in vitro when compared to expression in the control group. Moreover, carp head kidney leukocytes produced elevated levels of pro-inflammatory and type 1 interferon cytokine mRNA in response to imiquimod stimulation. 相似文献

Characterization of oligopeptide transporter (PepT1) in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Zhen Liu Yi Zhou Junchang Feng Shuangqing Lu Qiong Zhao Jianshe Zhang 《Comparative biochemistry and physiology. Part B, Biochemistry & molecular biology》2013,164(3):194-200
The oligopeptide transporter (PepT1) is located on the brush-border membrane of the intestinal epithelium, and plays an important role in dipeptide and tripeptide absorptions from protein digestion. In this study, we cloned the PepT1 cDNA from grass carp and characterized its expression profile in response to dietary protein and feed additives (sodium butyrate) treatments. The PepT1 gene encodes a protein of 714 amino acids with high sequence similarity with other vertebrate homologues. Expression analysis revealed highest levels of PepT1 mRNA expression in the foregut of grass carp. In addition, PepT1 mRNA expression exhibited diurnal variation in all three bowel segments of intestine with lower levels of expression in daytime than nighttime. During embryonic development, PepT1 showed a dynamic pattern of expression reaching maximal levels of expression in the gastrula stage and minimal levels in the organ stage. The PepT1 expression showed constant levels from 14 to 34 day post-hatch. To determine whether fish diet of different protein contents may have any effect on PepT1 expression, we extended our research to dietary regulation of PepT1 expression. We found that dietary protein levels had a significant effect on PepT1 gene expression. In addition, PepT1 mRNA levels were higher after feeding with fish meal than with soybean meal. Moreover, in vitro and in vivo sodium butyrate treatments increased PepT1 expression in the intestine of grass carp. The results demonstrate for the first time that PepT1 mRNA expression is regulated in a temporal and spatial pattern during development, and dietary protein and feed additives had a significant effects on PepT1 gene expression in grass carp. 相似文献

Grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus) is a very important aquaculture species in China and other South-East Asian countries; however, disease outbreaks in this species are frequent, resulting in huge economic losses. Grass carp hemorrhage caused by grass carp reovirus (GCRV) is one of the most serious diseases. Junction adhesion molecule A (JAM-A) is the mammalian receptor for reovirus, and has been well studied. However, the JAM-A gene in grass carp has not been studied so far. In this study, we cloned and elucidated the structure of the JAM-A gene in grass carp (GcJAM-A) and then studied its functions during grass carp hemorrhage. GcJAM-A is composed of 10 exons and 9 introns, and its full-length cDNA is 1833 bp long, with an 888 bp open reading frame (ORF) that encodes a 295 amino acid protein. The GcJAM-A protein is predicted to contain a typical transmembrane domain. Maternal expression pattern of GcJAM-A is observed during early embryogenesis, while zygote expression occurs at 8 h after hatching. GcJAM-A is expressed strongly in the gill, liver, intestine and kidney, while it is expressed poorly in the blood, brain, spleen and head kidney. Moreover, lower expression is observed in the gill, liver, intestine, brain, spleen and kidney of 30-month-old individuals, compared with 6-month-old. In a GcJAM-A-knockdown cell line (CIK) infected with GCRV, the expression of genes involved in the interferon and apoptosis pathways was significantly inhibited. These results suggest that GcJAM-A could be a receptor for GCRV. We have therefore managed to characterize the GcJAM-A gene and provide evidence for its role as a receptor for GCRV. 相似文献
