Regulators of G-protein signaling (RGS) proteins are a family of proteins, which accelerate GTPase-activity intrinsic to the
alpha subunits of heterotrimeric G-proteins and play crucial roles in the physiological control of G-protein signaling. Here,
yellow grouper RGS16 protein was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified by Ni–NTA affinity chromatography. The expression level of the fusion protein was up to 30% of the total cellular
protein.Western blotting analysis showed that a band with the molecular mass of about 21 Kda was detected. The purified recombinant
protein was used to prepare polyclonal antibody, and antiserum obtained was highly specific with the titer of over 1:32,000.
Additionally, RGS16 protein was expressed in the Tn-5B1-4 insect cells. Western blotting analysis revealed that the expressed
protein had immunoreactivity. 相似文献

Diurnal variation in tryptic activity and developmental changes in proteolytic enzyme activities of malabar grouper larvae (Epinephelus malabaricus) were examined. Five different groups were prepared for the experiment of diurnal variation of tryptic activity in larvae: larvae were fed Thai-type rotifers Brachionus rotundiformis from the time of mouth opening, fed rotifers from 6 h after mouth opening, 12 h, 24 h and not fed rotifers (starved control). The experimental tanks were placed in temperature-controlled baths at 28 °C under 24 h light. Developmental changes in proteolytic activity of trypsin and pepsin-like enzyme were measured from hatching to 57 days after hatching (DAH).
The tryptic activity of all fed groups showed the same pattern, and the diurnal variation of tryptic activity was clearly observed from 3 to 6 DAH. The highest tryptic activities were found at 19:00, and the activities were lowest from 01:00 to 07:00. In contrast, that of non-fed larvae was low compared to the fed groups, however the diurnal variation of tryptic activity was shown same tendency to the fed groups. Interestingly, both groups (fed and non-fed) were exhibited a circadian rhythm under the 24 h light conditions and delaying of first-feeding. Tryptic activity of larvae notably increased from 40 to 45 DAH and markedly decreased at 52 DAH. In contrast to the tryptic activity, that of pepsin-like enzyme clearly increased from 47 to 51 DAH. The results suggest that a functional change of protein digestion occurs from 40 to 50 DAH related with metamorphosis in malabar grouper. These results could contribute to determining appropriate feeding schedules, such as feeding time, frequency and optimal time to change food items, in mass-scale production of the present species. 相似文献

天然抗性相关巨噬细胞蛋白(Natural resistance-associated macrophage protein, Nramp)属于膜整合转运蛋白,具有抑制胞内寄生菌侵染、调节巨噬细胞的抗菌活性等作用。本研究对半滑舌鳎(Cynoglossus semilaevis)Nramp基因进行了克隆和表达分析,并对其与抗鳗弧菌感染相关的单核苷酸多态性(Single Nucleotide Polymorphism, SNP)位点进行了筛选。该基因cDNA序列全长3717 bp,其中开放阅读框(Open reading frame, ORF)1677 bp,所编码蛋白含有558个氨基酸,该蛋白具有Nramp家族的典型特征,包括10个跨膜区(Transmembrane, TM)、1个由20个氨基酸残基组成的胞质内转运蛋白特征结构域(Consensus Transport Motif, CTM)。半滑舌鳎Nramp的ORF末端有1个类似于脊椎动物Nramp2中的铁反应控制蛋白结合位点(Iron-responsive regulatory protein-binding site, IRE)。半滑舌鳎Nramp与其他14个物种的Nramp氨基酸序列同源性在63%?91%之间,系统进化分析表明,半滑舌鳎Nramp和所有鱼类Nramp聚集为一簇,与其他物种Nramp2的亲缘关系较近。实时荧光定量PCR分析显示,Nramp基因在半滑舌鳎脾脏和肾脏中的表达量最高,而在肌肉和性腺中的表达量最低;在哈维氏弧菌感染的半滑舌鳎肾脏、脾脏和肝脏中表达量呈升高趋势,而在鳃中则表现为下调趋势。利用直接测序法检测感染鳗弧菌后同一家系的233个个体(抗病个体165个,感病个体68个),共检测到15个SNP位点,对其中3个SNP 位点即 SNP-g.3113(T→C)、SNP-g.3125(A→G)和 SNP-g.3164(A→T)进行测序分型后发现,SNP- g.3125(A→G)的等位基因(G)频率和基因型(GG)频率与半滑舌鳎抗鳗弧菌疾病呈极显著相关(P<0.01)。研究结果表明,Nramp 基因不同基因型对半滑舌鳎的抗病能力有着极其重要的影响,SNP-g.3125(A→G)可作为潜在的抗性遗传标记位点。本研究将为半滑舌鳎抗性品系培育提供技术支持。 相似文献

This study aimed to investigate effects of bovine serum albumin immune‐stimulating complexes (BSA ISCOMs) on immune‐related genes expression, serum nonspecific immunity and disease resistance of large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea). Fish were fed diets containing 3.5 ml of BSA ISCOMs per kg feed (experimental group) or 3.5 ml of phosphate‐buffered saline per kg feed (control group) for 1 week. The liver, spleen, head‐kidney tissues were sampled for determining gene expression of myxovirus‐resistant protein (Mx), major histocompatibility complex class II alpha chain (MHC II α), tumour necrosis factor‐alpha (TNF‐α) and interleukin‐10 (IL‐10) 30 and 90 days after feeding. Also, blood samples were collected for determining activities of serum superoxide dismutase (SOD), interferon alpha (IFN‐α), TNF‐α and alkaline phosphatase (ALP). TNF‐α and MHCⅡα gene expression in the liver, spleen, head‐kidney, as well as IFN‐α, TNF‐α and ALP activities in the serum, of experimental fish were significantly higher 30 days after feeding; while only TNF‐α and MHC II gene expression in the head‐kidney remained upregulated 90 days after feeding. The cumulative mortality of the experimental fish was significantly lower than control. This study indicated that BSA ISCOMs improved the immune response and induced protective immunity in large yellow croaker. 相似文献

The full-length cDNA, encoding the orange-spotted grouper β-actin and spanning 1920 bp including a poly (A) tail, was cloned
from its brain cDNA library. The open reading frame encodes a protein of 375 amino acids. Sequence analysis indicated that
it contained the typical structural features of cytoplasmic actins, and showed higher homology with other vertebrate β-actin
than any other members of the actin family. The partial genomic sequence indicated that the organization of the β-actin gene
in the orange-spotted grouper might also be conserved. Northern blot analysis indicated that it was expressed at high levels
in the brain, spleen, adipose tissue, ovary, and liver, but at low levels in the gill filament and heart, and at a very low
level in the kidney. The expression of β-actin gene in the skeletal muscle was barely detectable. These results indicated
that the expression of the orange-spotted grouper β-actin gene showed significant variation in different tissues. Therefore,
caution should be taken when using β-actin gene as an internal control in the normalization of gene expression among tissues.
Whereas, semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis indicated that treatment with 17α–methyltestosterone (MT) had little effect on
the mRNA expression of β-actin gene in the in vitro incubated hypothalamus, pituitary, and ovary fragments of the orange-spotted grouper, suggesting β-actin can be used as an
internal control for RT-PCR analysis of MT effects on gene expression in these tissues. 相似文献

In this paper we investigate the interleukin-10 (IL-10) expression and 3D modelling of the European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax L.). IL-10 is a regulatory cytokine that has been intensively studied in mammals and has been found mainly involved in the suppression or deactivation of activated immune responses. The full-length sea bass IL-10 cDNA consists of 1015 bp and is translated in a predicted molecule of 187 amino acids. A multiple alignment of this peptide with other known sequences showed the conservation of fundamental IL-10 family characteristics. Expression analysis by real-time PCR in control fish showed a high basal expression in the head kidney (HK), followed by gut and brain. In vitro treatment of HK leucocytes with LPS showed an intense increase of IL-10 expression at 4 h and a significant decrease at 24 h, with PHA-L no differences were evidenced. A 3D model for sea bass IL-10 was obtained by accurate homology procedures and putative interaction residues with the IL-10 receptor described. The results suggested that sea bass IL-10 could be involved in anti-inflammatory responses, but further experiments are needed to assess its importance in response to pathogenic agents, vaccinations and immunostimulants. 相似文献

Immunization of grouper, Epinephelus coioides, confers protection against a protozoan parasite, Cryptocaryon irritans 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
The present study aimed to determine whether protection is conferred by immunization of grouper, Epinephelus coioides, against a protozoan parasite, Cryptocaryon irritans. The immunization of E. coioides was carried out by a low level exposure of fish to live C. irritans theronts from predetermined number of tomonts and by an intraperitoneal injection of a vaccine consisting of formalin-killed C. irritans theronts.
Mucus titers detected by ELISA were significantly higher in fingerling and adult grouper subjected to the low level of exposure to C. irritans theronts at 3-week post-exposure compared to fish that had no previous exposure. In addition, significantly smaller tomonts were produced from adult grouper after three successive exposures than the tomonts produced after a single exposure to the parasite.
In the vaccine-immunization experiment, no mortality was monitored in fish that received high dose vaccine (100 μg/fish), while 40% cumulative mortality and 100% cumulative mortality were recorded in low dose group (10 μg/fish) and control group (PBS-injected), respectively. In the succeeding replicate, the vaccine-immunized group (high dose) had 37.5% cumulative mortality and 100% cumulative mortality for the control. In addition, a total of 1830 tomonts were collected at 5-day post-challenge from the control group while none from the vaccine-immunized group. Significantly fewer trophonts and tomonts were enumerated at 5-day and 7-day post-challenge, respectively, in the vaccine-immunized group than the control.
Results suggest that a protective immunity has been conferred on the immunized grouper as indicated by high antibody titers in the mucus of C. irritans-exposed fish and higher survival and fewer parasites in vaccine-immunized fish than the control groups. The conferred immunity played a major role in preventing or limiting the adhesion, invasion, and development of C. irritans theronts on the skin of the immunized grouper. 相似文献

Characterization and virus susceptibility of a skin cell line from red-spotted grouper (Epinephelus akaara) 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
A red-spotted grouper Epinephelus akaara skin (RGS) cell line was established and characterized. RGS cells had a normal diploid chromosome number of 2n = 48, the morphology of which was fibroblastic-like in 3 days and epithelial-like over 5 after 16 passages. The cells multiplied well in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium supplemented with 10% of fetal bovine serum at 25°C. Susceptibilities of RGS and grass carp ovary (GCO) cells to two viruses were tested, and the results showed that the titer of an iridovirus Rana grylio virus (RGV) in RGS cells was 103.5 TCID50 ml?1, which was much higher than a rhabdovirus spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) in the cells (100.5 TCID50 ml?1). The titers of RGV and SVCV in GCO were 106.0 TCID50 ml?1 and 108.0 TCID50 ml?1, respectively, which were higher than those in RGS cells. The data may imply that RGS cells could be selectively resistible to some viruses during infection. RT-PCR analysis of RGV-infected RGS cells showed that RGV could replicate in RGS cells. Further study of virus replications in RGS cells was conducted by electron microscopy and immunofluorescence microscopy has shown that virus particles scattered in the cytoplasm and virus protein appeared in both the cytoplasm and nucleus. The results suggested that RGS cells could be used as a potential in vitro model to study the cutaneous barrier function against virus infection. 相似文献

A growth experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of replacement of fish meal (FM) by meat and bone meal (MBM) in diets on the growth and body composition of large yellow croaker (Pseudosciaena crocea). Six isonitrogenous (43% crude protein) and isoenergetic (20 kJ g− 1) diets replacing 0, 15, 30, 45, 60 and 75% FM protein by MBM protein were formulated. Each diet was randomly allocated to triplicate groups of fish in sea floating cages (1.0 × 1.0 × 1.5 m), and each cage was stocked with 180 fish (initial average weight of 1.88 ± 0.02 g). Fish were fed twice daily (05:00 and 17:30) to apparent satiation for 8 weeks. The water temperature ranged from 26.5 to 32.5 °C, salinity from 32 to 36‰, and dissolved oxygen content was approximately 7 mg l− 1 during the experimental period. Survival decreased with increasing dietary MBM and the survival in the fish fed the diet with 75% protein from MBM was significantly lower than other groups (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in specific growth rate (SGR) among the fish fed the diets with 0 (the control group), 15, 30 and 45% protein from MBM. However, SGR in the fish fed the diets with 60 and 75% protein from MBM were significantly lower than other groups (P < 0.05). No significant differences in feeding rate were observed among dietary treatments. The digestibility experiment showed that the apparent digestibility coefficients (ADC) of dry matter, protein, lipid and energy of MBM were significantly lower compared with those of FM (P < 0.05). Essential amino acid index was found to be correlated positively with SGR in the present study, suggesting that essential amino acid balance was important. Body composition analysis showed that the carcass protein and essential amino acids were not significantly affected by dietary MBM. The lipid and n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acid (n-3 HUFA) in fish muscle, however, significantly decreased with increasing dietary MBM. These results showed that 45% of FM protein could be replaced by MBM protein in diets of large yellow croaker without significantly reducing growth. It was suggested that the reduced growth with higher MBM was due to lower digestibility and imbalance of essential amino acids. 相似文献

A nodavirus was isolated from diseased yellow grouper, Epinephelus awoara , larvae cultured in southern Taiwan. The histopathology and RT–PCR results confirmed that it was a fish nodavirus; its coat protein gene sequence was similar to that of red spotted grouper nervous necrosis virus (RGNNV) and it is named yellow grouper nervous necrosis virus (YGNNV). A new nodavirus-susceptible cell line, grouper brain (GB) was established and characterized from the brain tissue of yellow grouper. The GB cells multiplied well in Leibovitz's L-15 medium supplemented with 10% foetal bovine serum at temperatures between 24 and 32 °C, and have been subcultured more than 80 times, becoming a continuous cell line. The GB cell line consists of fibroblast-like cells and some epithelioid cells. The cell line yielded titres of YGNNV up to 108.5 TCID50 mL–1 . The GB cells effectively replicated the virus at 28 °C, which could be purified to homogeneity by caesium chloride gradient centrifugation. Electron microscopy studies showed that purified virus particles were 25–30 nm in diameter. The cytoplasm of infected cells was filled with aggregates of virus particles. These results indicate that the GB cell line is a significant tool for the study of fish nodaviruses. 相似文献

An epizootic in seawater-cage reared large yellow croaker, Larimichthys crocea, in China was caused by a Nocardia sp. from August to October 2003. The cumulative mortality rate was 15% and the diseased fish were 16 months old with individual length varying from 25 to 30 cm. Multiple, white nodules, 0.1-0.2 cm in diameter, were scattered on the heart, spleen and kidney. The morphology of isolated bacteria from Lowenstein-Jensen medium and tryptic soy agar was bead-like or long, slender, filamentous rods. Experimental infection indicated that the isolated bacterium was the pathogen responsible for the mortalities. A partial sequence of the 16S rRNA gene of the organism and the type strain of Nocardia seriolae JCM 3360T (Z36925) formed a monophyletic clade with a high sequence similarity of 99.9%. Based on the morphological, physiological, biological properties and the phylogenetic analysis, the pathogenic organism was identified as N. seriolae. This is the first report on N. seriolae-infected large yellow croaker in aquaculture. 相似文献

Molecular characterization was carried out on an iridovirus isolated from yellow grouper, Epinephelus awoara . The major capsid protein (MCP) gene was located, sequenced and compared with homologous genes from other iridoviruses. The nucleotide sequence is 1392 bases long and contains a single open reading frame beginning at an ATG codon from the 5' end and terminating at a TAA codon at the 3' end. The open reading frame encodes a protein of 463 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 50 272 Da. Pairwise amino acid alignments detected a high degree of sequence identity between grouper iridovirus (GIV) MCP and the homologous genes of other iridoviruses. The MCP gene of GIV was most similar to the MCP gene from frog virus 3 (FV3) with 70% nucleotide and 73% amino acid sequence identity. The predicted molecular weight of the protein of this gene is comparable with the apparent weight obtained by SDS–PAGE. Pathogenicity of the GIV was investigated in yellow grouper by intraperitoneal injection of 107 and 104 TCID50 virus. Cumulative mortalities reached 100% within 11 and 25 days post-infection, respectively, while no grouper died in the control group. The molecular studies demonstrated that GIV is a member of the genus Ranavirus . 相似文献
