Background
Large scale sequencing of cDNA libraries can provide profiles of genes expressed in an organism under defined biological and environmental circumstances. We have analyzed sequences of 4541 Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) from 3 different cDNA libraries created from abdomens from Plasmodium infection-susceptible adult female Anopheles gambiae. These libraries were made from sugar fed (S), rat blood fed (RB), and P. berghei-infected (IRB) mosquitoes at 30 hours after the blood meal, when most parasites would be transforming ookinetes or very early oocysts.Results
The S, RB and IRB libraries contained 1727, 1145 and 1669 high quality ESTs, respectively, averaging 455 nucleotides (nt) in length. They assembled into 1975 consensus sequences - 567 contigs and 1408 singletons. Functional annotation was performed to annotate probable molecular functions of the gene products and the biological processes in which they function. Genes represented at high frequency in one or more of the libraries were subjected to digital Northern analysis and results on expression of 5 verified by qRT-PCR.Conclusion
13% of the 1965 ESTs showing identity to the A. gambiae genome sequence represent novel genes. These, together with untranslated regions (UTR) present on many of the ESTs, will inform further genome annotation. We have identified 23 genes encoding products likely to be involved in regulating the cellular oxidative environment and 25 insect immunity genes. We also identified 25 genes as being up or down regulated following blood feeding and/or feeding with P. berghei infected blood relative to their expression levels in sugar fed females. 相似文献5.

A purpose-designed microarray platform (Stressgenes, Phase 1) was utilised to investigate the changes in gene expression within the liver of rainbow trout during exposure to a prolonged period of confinement. Tissue and blood samples were collected from trout at intervals up to 648 h after transfer to a standardised confinement stressor, together with matched samples from undisturbed control fish. Plasma ACTH, cortisol, glucose and lactate were analysed to confirm that the neuroendocrine response to confinement was consistent with previous findings and to provide a phenotypic context to assist interpretation of gene expression data. Liver samples for suppression subtractive hybridisation (SSH) library construction were selected from within the experimental groups comprising “early” stress (2–48 h) and “late” stress (96–504 h). In order to reduce redundancy within the four SSH libraries and yield a higher number of unique clones an additional subtraction was carried out. After printing of the arrays a series of 55 hybridisations were executed to cover 6 time points. At 2 h, 6 h, 24 h, 168 h and 504 h 5 individual confined fish and 5 individual control fish were used with control fish only at 0 h. A preliminary list of 314 clones considered differentially regulated over the complete time course was generated by a combination of data analysis approaches and the most significant gene expression changes were found to occur during the 24 h to 168 h time period with a general approach to control levels by 504 h. Few changes in expression were apparent over the first 6 h. The list of genes whose expression was significantly altered comprised predominantly genes belonging to the biological process category (response to stimulus) and one cellular component category (extracellular region) and were dominated by so-called acute phase proteins. Analysis of the gene expression profile in liver tissue during confinement revealed a number of significant clusters. The major patterns comprised genes that were up-regulated at 24 h and beyond, the primary examples being haptoglobin, β-fibrinogen and EST10729. Two representative genes from each of the six k-means clusters were validated by qPCR. Correlations between microarray and qPCR expression patterns were significant for most of the genes tested. qPCR analysis revealed that haptoglobin expression was up-regulated approximately 8-fold at 24 h and over 13-fold by 168 h. 相似文献

Galactinol synthase (GolS, EC 2.4.1.123), a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of raffinose family oligosaccharides (RFOs), plays roles in plant growth and developmental processes. The in vitro roles of GolS in plant responses against heavy metal stress are not well clarified. In the present study, a suppression-subtractive hybridization (SSH) cDNA library has been constructed using RNA extracted from wheat cultivar Jinan 18 treated with ZnCl2 as the tester and RNA from untreated seedlings as the driver. Sixteen expressed sequence tags (ESTs) highly homologous with known proteins associated with stress tolerance have been obtained. Among these, a 1000-bp cDNA sequence encoding GolS protein has been isolated and designated as TaGolS3. Real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) analysis revealed that TaGolS3 was mainly expressed in young roots and upregulated by exogenous ABA treatment and several abiotic stresses, such as ZnCl2, CuCl2, low temperature, and NaCl. Subcellular localization analysis showed that TaGolS3 protein is a nuclear-localized protein. A detailed analysis of Arabidopsis and rice transgenic plants overexpressing TaGolS3 gene displayed that transgenic plants exhibited increased lateral root number, primary root length, plant survival rate, and plant height. Moreover, in comparison with the wild-type (WT) plants, the TaGolS3-overexpressing lines showed a higher expression of ROS-scavenging genes, activities of antioxidative enzymes, proline contents, and a lower level of malondialdehyde (MDA) contents and electrolyte leakage under zinc stress. These results confirmed the positive roles of TaGolS3 in improving plant tolerance to heavy metal stress, indicating a potential resource in the transgenic breeding to enhance heavy metal stress tolerance in crop plants. 相似文献

In this study, the mitochondrial damage effect and mechanism of zearalenone (ZEA) in swine small intestine IPEC‐J2 cells in vitro were comprehensively characterized. The analyses revealed that ZEA at high doses (8 and 7 μg/mL) can significantly increase P < 0.05 the malondialdehyde levels and decrease antioxidant enzymes activities after 48 h of exposure. Meanwhile, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation increased in high dose ZEA‐treated groups after 2 h treatment, but decreased due to the ROS‐induced mitochondrial damage and the caused cell apoptosis after 48 h of high does ZEA treatment. Moreover, the decreasing of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP; ΔΨ) in high dose ZEA exposure was observed in line with the increasing ROS production in mitochondria. Results suggest that ZEA exposure can induce mitochondrial damage by reducing antioxidant enzyme activities, accumulation of ROS, and decreasing MMP. The mitochondrial damage had a dramatic concentration–effects relationship with ZEA. 相似文献

Insect immune processes are mediated by programs of differential gene expression. To understand the molecular regulation of the immune response in the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta, the relevant subset of differentially expressed genes of interest must be identified, cloned and studied in detail. In this study, suppression subtractive hybridization, a PCR-based method for cDNA subtraction was performed to identify mRNAs from fat body of immunized larvae that are not present (or present at a low level) in control larvae. A subtracted cDNA library enriched in immune-inducible genes was constructed. Northern blot analysis of a sample of clones from our subtracted library indicated that >90% of the clones randomly selected from the subtracted library are immune inducible. Sequence analysis of 238 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) revealed that 120 ESTs, representing 54 distinct genes or gene families, had sequences identical or similar to previously characterized genes, some of which have been confirmed to be involved in innate immunity. These ESTs were categorized into seven groups, including pattern recognition proteins, serine proteinases and their inhibitors, and antimicrobial proteins. 112 ESTs, about 47.5% of the library, showed no significant similarity to any known genes. The sequences identified in this M. sexta library reflect our knowledge of insect immune strategies and may facilitate better understanding of insect immune responses. 相似文献

Two complementary DNA (cDNA) libraries were constructed from tissues isolated from primordia and basidiomes of Agaricus bisporus to characterize genes involved in mushroom development. Using single-pass sequencing of 869 cDNA clones, we found 477 expressed sequence tags (ESTs), including 466 not previously described in the databases for A. bisporus. A BLASTX search revealed that 374 ESTs had similarities with protein sequences available from databases; 193 of these ESTs were categorized according to their putative function. Most ESTs were assigned to one of four roles: metabolism (23%), cell structure (15%), cell growth and division (12%), and protein destination and storage (10%). The remaining ESTs with putative homologues were classified in 10 additional categories. Many ESTs could not be functionally assigned. Based on redundancy levels, at least 4 ESTs were preferentially expressed in each tissue type. Sequence analysis also suggested the presence of paralog tyrosinase genes in the A. bisporus genome. 相似文献

Catfishes are commercially important fish for both the fisheries and aquaculture industry. Clarias batrachus, an Indian catfish species is economically important owing to its high demand. A normalized cDNA library was constructed from spleen of the Indian catfish to identify genes associated with immune function. One thousand nine hundred thirty seven ESTs were submitted to the GenBank with an average read length of approximately 700 bp. Clustering analysis of ESTs yielded 1,698 unique sequences, including 184 contigs and 1,514 singletons. Significant homology to known genes was found by homology searches against data in GenBank in 576 (34 %) ESTs, including similarity to functionally annotated unigenes for 158 ESTs. Additionally, 433 ESTs revealed similarity to unigenes and ESTs in the dbEST but the remaining 658 EST sequences (39 %) did not match any sequence in GenBank. Of a total of 1,698 ESTs generated, 65 ESTs were found to be associated with immune functions. Gene Ontology and KEGG pathway analyses of C. batrachus ESTs collectively revealed a preponderance of immune relevant pathways apart from the presence of pathways involved in protein processing, localization, folding and protein degradation. This study constitutes first EST analysis of lymphoid organ in aquaculturally important Indian catfish species and could pave the way for further research of immune-related genes and functional genomics in this catfish. 相似文献
