Cloning and expression pattern analysis of a lipopolysaccharide -and beta-1,3-glucan-binding protein in Portunus trituberculatus

The lipopolysaccharide -and beta-1,3-glucan-binding protein (LGBP) is a pattern recognition receptor, which is fundamental for the innate immune response of crustaceans. A LGBP gene was cloned from the haemocytes of Portunus trituberculatus using SMART RACE methods. The full-length LGBP cDNA (1 378 bp) had a 1 095 bp open reading frame encoding a protein of 365 amino acid residues including a 16 amino acid residues signal peptide, a 138 bp 5' untranslated region (UTR) and a 144 bp untranslated region in the 3' UTR with a 29 bp polyA tail. The calculated molecular mass of the mature protein (349 amino acid residues) is 39,825.24 with an estimated pI of 4.49. The gene sequence and secondary structure of LGBP were analyzed by bio-informatics. Additionally, a Glyco hydro 16 domain was identified. The expression of P. trituberculatus in various tissues were detected through RT-PCR methods. The results showed that the LGBP gene expressed in all the tissues detected, including haemocytes, hepatopancreas, heart, gills and muscle. In response to the challenge of Staphyloccocus aureus and Vibrio alginolyticus, the LGBP gene expression in haemocytes of the group challenged with mixed bacteria were higher than the control group within 48 h. It suggested that the LGBP gene plays an active role in immunologic process against bacterial infection.

Isolation and sequence analysis of a full-length cDNA for human M creatine kinase

A full length cDNA for human M creatine kinase has been isolated and sequenced. The cDNA contains 77 bp of 5' untranslated, 338 bp of 3' untranslated sequence and the entire coding region (1146 bp) for human M creatine kinase. The M creatine kinases from different species share considerable sequence homology within the coding region (77-91%) and in amino acid sequence (82-97%). Little or no sequence homology is observed in the 3' untranslated sequence of the mammalian M creatine kinases, although canine and human creatine kinase share overall 80% sequence homology in 5' untranslated sequence. A unique 8 bp sequence was identified in the 5' untranslated regions of mammalian M creatine kinase but is not present in B creatine kinase cDNA. The degree of sequence conservation observed implies an evolutionary constraint on M creatine kinase structure beyond that which would be expected for the maintenance of enzymatic function.

Cloning, characterization and expression analysis of interleukin-10 from the common carp, Cyprinus carpio L.

Interleukin (IL)-10 was cloned from the common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) using IL-10 primers from carp head kidney following stimulation with concanavalin A and lipopolysaccharide. The cDNA consisted of a 1096 bp sequence containing a 55 bp 5' untranslated region and a 498 bp 3' untranslated region. An open reading frame of 543 bp encoded a putative 180 amino acid protein with a putative signal peptide of 22 amino acids. The signature motif of IL-10 is conserved in carp sequence. A 2083 bp genomic sequence of carp IL-10 was found to contain five exons interrupted by four introns. With the exception of much more compact introns, the genomic structure was similar to that of mammalian IL-10. By homology, phylogeny and genomic analyses, the carp gene cloned was designated as IL-10. Carp IL-10 was expressed in head, kidney, liver, spleen and intestine during the resting phase. The gene was also expressed in head kidney and liver following in vitro stimulation with lipopolysaccharide.
