Molecular characterization, spatiotemporal expression, and background adaptation regulation of tyrosinase in loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus). JOURNAL OF FISH BIOLOGY 2024. [PMID: 38852940 DOI: 10.1111/jfb.15822] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 04/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024]
Abstract
The Poyang Lake region is home to large-blackspot loaches (LBL), small-blackspot loaches (SBL), and non-blackspot loaches (NBL), Misgurnus anguillicaudatus. To investigate the impact of tyrosinase on spot development, the complementary DNAs (cDNA) of tyrosinase in M. anguillicaudatus (designated as Matyr) were cloned using the rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE)-PCR method. The full-length cDNA for Matyr was 2020 bp, and the open-reading frame comprised 1617 bp, encoding a predicted protein with 538 amino acids. Phylogenetic studies revealed that MaTyr was first grouped with Tyr of Triplophysa tibetana and Leptobotia taeniops, and then Tyr of other cyprinid fish. The quantitative reverse-transcription-PCR results show that Matyr was highly expressed in the muscle, caudal fin, and dorsal skin. The Matyr gene's messenger RNA expression pattern steadily increased from the fertilized ovum period to the somitogenesis period, and from the muscle effect stage to 6 days after fertilization, it considerably increased (p < 0.01). The Matyr hybridization signals with similar location could be found in all developmental stages of three kinds of loaches using whole-mount in situ hybridization (WISH) technology and were the strongest during the organ development period and melanin formation period. Dot hybridization signals in LBLs rapidly spread to the back of the body beginning at the period when the eyes first formed melanin, and their dimensions were larger than those of NBLs during the same time period. The body color of loaches could change reversibly with black/white background adaptation. The α-msh, mitfa, and tyr are mainly expressed in loaches adapted with a black background. Tyr gene could be involved in the development of blackspots and body color polymorphism, and contribute to organ development in the loach.

[PMID: 35733574 PMCID: PMC9208924 DOI: 10.1155/2022/4125833] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/13/2022] [Revised: 05/08/2022] [Accepted: 05/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Texture has strong expressiveness in picture art, and color texture features play an important role in composition. Together with texture, they can convey the artistic connotation of portrait, especially in oil painting. Therefore, in order to make the picture form oil painting style and oil painting schema, we need to study the texture and color texture in combination with the previous oil painting art images. But now, there are few samples of good oil paintings, so it is difficult to study the texture and color texture in oil paintings. Therefore, in order to form a unique artistic style of modern oil painting and promote the development of modern oil painting art, this paper studies the texture and color texture characteristics in the environment of few oil painting works. This paper establishes a model through deep neural network to extract the image incentive and color texture of oil painting art works, which provides guidance for promoting the development of oil painting art. The experiments in this paper show that the depth neural network has high definition for the extraction of texture and color texture of small sample oil painting images, which can reach more than 85%. It has high guiding significance for the research and creation of oil painting art.

Analysis of pigment cell composition, pigment content, tyrosinase content and activity of three kinds of loaches Misgurnus anguillicaudatus from Poyang Lake. JOURNAL OF FISH BIOLOGY 2022; 100:366-377. [PMID: 34751443 DOI: 10.1111/jfb.14945] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2021] [Revised: 09/28/2021] [Accepted: 11/08/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
Pigment cell composition, pigment content, tyrosinase content and activity analysis were investigated on three kinds of loaches Misgurnus anguillicaudatus: big blackspot loaches (BBL), small blackspot loaches (SBL) and non-blackspot loaches (NBL), from Poyang Lake. Results showed that there were three types of skin pigment cells, namely melanophores, xanthophores and iridophores. Melanophores in dorsum were more than those in abdomen. Melanophore cytosomes in BBL were larger than those in SBL and NBL, and melanosomes were the largest in stage four. The melanophores in dorsal skin of SBL or NBL were small cell bodies, spindle-like and in chain distribution. There was an extremely significant difference in melanin content in BBL between the dorsum and abdomen (P < 0.01). There were no significant differences in melanin abdominal content, lutein and carotenoid contents among three kinds of loaches (P > 0.05). In dorsal skin, tyrosinase content was the highest in BBL, and it was significantly lower in NBL than in BBL and SBL (P < 0.01). This study reveals the differences in pigment and tyrosinase content in three kinds of loaches and provides a theoretical basis for further study of the mechanism of black spot formation.

Shell Biosynthesis and Pigmentation as Revealed by the Expression of Tyrosinase and Tyrosinase-like Protein Genes in Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) with Different Shell Colors. MARINE BIOTECHNOLOGY (NEW YORK, N.Y.) 2021; 23:777-789. [PMID: 34490547 DOI: 10.1007/s10126-021-10063-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2021] [Accepted: 08/20/2021] [Indexed: 06/13/2023]
Abstract
The widely recognized color polymorphisms of molluscan shell have been appreciated for hundreds of years by collectors and scientists, while molecular mechanisms underlying shell pigmentation are still poorly understood. Tyrosinase is a key rate-limiting enzyme for the biosynthesis of melanin. Here, we performed an extensive multi-omics data mining and identified two tyrosinase genes, including tyrosinase and tyrosinase-like protein 2 (Tyr and Typ-2 respectively), in the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas, and investigated the expression patterns of tyrosinase during adults and embryogenesis in black and white shell color C. gigas. Tissue expression analysis showed that two tyrosinase genes were both specifically expressed in the mantle, and the expression levels of Tyr and Typ-2 in the edge mantle were significantly higher than that in the central mantle. Besides, Tyr and Typ-2 genes were black shell-specific compared with white shell oysters. In situ hybridization showed that strong signals for Tyr were detected in the inner surface of the outer fold, whereas positive signals for Typ-2 were mainly localized in the outer surface of the outer fold. In the embryos and larvae, the high expression of Tyr mRNA was detected in eyed-larvae, while Typ-2 mRNA was mainly expressed at the trochophore and early D-veliger. Furthermore, the tyrosinase activity in the edge mantle was significantly higher than that in the central mantle. These findings indicated that Tyr gene may be involved in shell pigmentation, and Typ-2 is more likely to play critical roles not only in the formation of shell prismatic layer but also in shell pigmentation. In particular, Typ-2 gene was likely to involve in the initial non-calcified shell of trochophores. The work provides valuable information for the molecular mechanism study of shell formation and pigmentation in C. gigas.
