Abstract
Triacylglycerol lipases (TGLs) can catalyze the hydrolysis reaction of triacylglycerol serving multiple functions in most organisms. Based on the genomic and transcriptomic databases of Neocaridina denticulata sinensis, two TGL genes from N. denticulata sinensis designated NdTGL1 and NdTGL2 were identified and characterized. NdTGL1 showed the highest expression in the stomach, followed by the testis and hepatopancreas, and NdTGL2 exhibited the maximum expression in the hepatopancreas, followed by the stomach and heart. Under the stimulation of copper ion, the expression of NdTGL1 peaked at 12 h and the expression of NdTGL2 elevated significantly at 24 h after stimulation (P < 0.05). It is speculated that NdTGLs may play an important role in the stress response of N. denticulata sinensis. Challenged with Vibrio parahaemolyticus, the expression profiles of NdTGL1 and NdTGL2 in the hepatopancreas was different, which indicates that the immune response of the V. parahaemolyticus challenge might lead to changes in triglyceride metabolism. The recombinant NdTGL (recNdTGL1 and recNdTGL2) were obtained and the enzymatic characterization of recNdTGL1 and recNdTGL2 were determined. The common maximum activity and stability of the recNdTGL1 and recNdTGL2 were observed at 45 °C and 10 °C, respectively. Both recNdTGL1 and recNdTGL2 exhibited the highest activity at pH 10.0. Furthermore, the recNdTGL1 and recNdTGL2 displayed the maximum stability at pH 5.0 and pH 8.0, respectively. In presence of different metal ions, the enzyme activity of recNdTGL1 and recNdTGL2 were inhibited by Cu2+ and Zn2+, and decreased by about 25%. Studies on the triacylglycerol lipases of N. denticulata sinensis provide theoretical support for studies related to fat metabolism in crustaceans and studies on response mechanism of digestive enzymes to microbial pathogens.

Cloning, expression analysis and RNAi of farnesoic acid O-methylransferase gene from Neocaridina denticulata sinensis. Comp Biochem Physiol B Biochem Mol Biol 2022; 259:110719. [PMID: 35150858 DOI: 10.1016/j.cbpb.2022.110719] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2021] [Revised: 01/05/2022] [Accepted: 02/07/2022] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
Methyl farnesoate (MF) is an essential endocrine hormone in crustaceans, which can promote the occurrence of crustaceans molting, control morphogenesis, affect gonad development, and regulate the stress stimulation to the external environment. The farnesoic acid O-methyltransferase (FAMeT) is a key rate-limiting enzyme in MF synthesis, catalyzing the conversion of farnesoic acid (FA) into MF. Neocaridina denticulata sinensis [Decapoda] is a suitable animal model for studying crustaceans because it can reproduce many times under artificial control and has a short reproductive cycle. According to its transcriptomic and genomic information, the full-length cDNA sequence of FAMeT from N. denticulata sinensis (NdFAMeT) was cloned and the characterization of its deduced amino acid sequence was also analyzed. The relative expression of NdFAMeT in different tissues was determined. The NdFAMeT protein was recombinantly expressed in E. coli and its enzyme activity was determined. After gene knockdown by RNAi technology, the protein activity of shrimp was decreased and the individual phenotype was also observed.

[PMID: 31326590 DOI: 10.1016/j.fsi.2019.07.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2019] [Revised: 07/13/2019] [Accepted: 07/17/2019] [Indexed: 06/10/2023]
Abstract
Trehalose, a nonreducing disaccharide, is present in a wide variety of organisms and plays a key role in many organisms under different stress conditions. In the study, the full-length cDNA sequence encoding trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (EcTPS) was obtained from Exopalaemon carinicauda. The complete nucleotide sequence of EcTPS contained a 2532 bp open reading frame (ORF) encoding a putative protein of 843 amino acids. The domain architecture of the deduced EcTPS contained a glycol_transf_20 domain and a trehalose_PPase domain. EcTPS mRNA was predominantly expressed in the hepatopancreas. The expression of EcTPS in the prawns challenged with Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Aeromonas hydrophila changed in a time-dependent manner. The function of EcTPS was also studied by double-strand RNA interference. The results showed that the knock-down of EcTPS increased the mortality of the Vibrio-challenged group and Aeromonas-challenged group compared with the control group. The present study provides some new insight into the immune function of the trehalose-6-phosphate synthase in prawns.
