[PMID: 38927246 PMCID: PMC11200715 DOI: 10.3390/biology13060366] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2024] [Revised: 05/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Neocaridina denticulata sinensis has emerged as a promising model organism for basic studies in Decapod. However, the current transcriptome information on this species is based on next-generation sequencing technologies, which are limited by a short read length. Therefore, the present study aimed to generate a full-length transcriptome assembly of N. denticulata sinensis utilizing the PacBio Sequel Ⅱ platform. The resulting transcriptome assembly comprised 5831 transcripts with an N50 value of 3697 bp. Remarkably, 90.5% of these transcripts represented novel isoforms of known genes. The transcripts were further searched against the NR, SwissProt, KEGG, KOG, GO, NT, and Pfam databases. A total of 24.8% of the transcripts can be annotated across all seven databases. Additionally, 1236 alternative splicing events, 344 transcription factors, and 124 long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) were predicted. Based on the alternative splicing annotation results, a RING finger protein NHL-1 gene from N. denticulata sinensis (NdNHL-1) was identified. There are 15 transcripts in NdNHL-1. The longest transcript is 4995 bp in length and encodes a putative protein of 1665 amino acids. A phylogenetic analysis showed its close relationship with NHL-1 from other crustacean species. This report represents the full-length transcriptome of N. denticulata sinensis and will facilitate research on functional genomics and environmental adaptation in this species.

Diverse Regulatory Manners and Potential Roles of lncRNAs in the Developmental Process of Asian Honey Bee ( Apis cerana) Larval Guts. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:15399. [PMID: 37895079 PMCID: PMC10607868 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242015399] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 10/15/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are crucial modulators in a variety of biological processes, such as gene expression, development, and immune defense. However, little is known about the function of lncRNAs in the development of Asian honey bee (Apis cerana) larval guts. Here, on the basis of our previously obtained deep-sequencing data from the 4-, 5-, and 6-day-old larval guts of A. cerana workers (Ac4, Ac5, and Ac6 groups), an in-depth transcriptome-wide investigation was conducted to decipher the expression pattern, regulatory manners, and potential roles of lncRNAs during the developmental process of A. cerana worker larval guts, followed by the verification of the relative expression of differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) and the targeting relationships within a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) axis. In the Ac4 vs. Ac5 and Ac5 vs. Ac6 comparison groups, 527 and 498 DElncRNAs were identified, respectively, which is suggestive of the dynamic expression of lncRNAs during the developmental process of larval guts. A cis-acting analysis showed that 330 and 393 neighboring genes of the aforementioned DElncRNAs were respectively involved in 29 and 32 functional terms, such as cellular processes and metabolic processes; these neighboring genes were also respectively engaged in 246 and 246 pathways such as the Hedgehog signaling pathway and the Wnt signaling pathway. Additionally, it was found that 79 and 76 DElncRNAs as potential antisense lncRNAs may, respectively, interact with 72 and 60 sense-strand mRNAs. An investigation of competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) networks suggested that 75 (155) DElncRNAs in the Ac4 vs. Ac5 (Ac5 vs. Ac6) comparison group could target 7 (5) DEmiRNAs and further bind to 334 (248) DEmRNAs, which can be annotated to 33 (29) functional terms and 186 (210) pathways, including 12 (16) cellular- and humoral-immune pathways (lysosome pathway, necroptosis, MAPK signaling pathway, etc.) and 11 (10) development-associated signaling pathways (Wnt, Hippo, AMPK, etc.). The RT-qPCR detection of five randomly selected DElncRNAs confirmed the reliability of the used sequencing data. Moreover, the results of a dual-luciferase reporter assay were indicative of the binding relationship between MSTRG.11294.1 and miR-6001-y and between miR-6001-y and ncbi_107992440. These results demonstrate that DElncRNAs are likely to modulate the developmental process of larval guts via the regulation of the source genes' transcription, interaction with mRNAs, and ceRNA networks. Our findings not only yield new insights into the developmental mechanism underlying A. cerana larval guts, but also provide a candidate ceRNA axis for further functional dissection.

Abstract
Batocera horsfieldi (Hope) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae) is an important forest pest in China that mainly infests timber and economic forests. This pest primarily causes plant tissue to necrotize, rot, and eventually die by feeding on the woody parts of tree trunks. To gain a deeper understanding of the genetic mechanism of B. horsfieldi, this study employed single-molecule real-time sequencing (SMRT) and Illumina RNA-seq technologies to conduct full-length transcriptome sequencing of the insect. Total RNA extracted from male and female adults was mixed and subjected to SMRT sequencing, generating a complete transcriptome. Transcriptome analysis, prediction of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA), coding sequences (CDs), analysis of simple sequence repeats (SSR), prediction of transcription factors, and functional annotation of transcripts were performed in this study. The collective 20,356,793 subreads (38.26 G, clean reads) were generated, including 432,091 circular consensus sequences and 395,851 full-length non-chimera reads. The full-length non-chimera reads (FLNC) were clustered and redundancies were removed, resulting in 39,912 consensus reads. SSR and ANGEL software v3.0 were used for predicting SSR and CDs. In addition, four tools were used for annotating 6058 lncRNAs, identifying 636 transcription factors. Furthermore, a total of 84,650 transcripts were functionally annotated in seven different databases. This is the first time that the full-length transcriptome of B. horsfieldi has been obtained using SMRT sequencing. This provides an important foundation for investigating the gene regulation underlying the interaction between B. horsfieldi and its host plants through gene editing in the future and provides a scientific basis for the prevention and control of B. horsfieldi.

Abstract
Little is known on how long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) and mRNAs cooperatively participate in regulating the nymph-to-adult development transition of Sogatella furcifera. Herein, lncRNA and mRNA libraries were constructed in three different developmental stages of S. furcifera, namely, prior to (PE), during (DE), and after (AE) ecdysis. Overall, 4649 lncRNAs were identified and divided into intergenic (53.90%), intronic (1.33%), sense (8.99%), antisense (21.75%), and bidirectional (3.94%) lncRNAs. Moreover, 795 differentially expressed lncRNAs were identified. Specifically, upon comparing PE and DE, 2719 target mRNAs were predicted for 574 lncRNAs. Upon comparing PE and AE, 2816 target mRNAs were predicted for 627 lncRNAs. Finally, upon comparing DE and AE, 51 target mRNAs were predicted for 35 lncRNAs. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome functional enrichment analysis revealed that the target genes of 795 lncRNAs were enriched in metabolic pathways, amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism, and fatty acid metabolism. Subsequently, interaction analysis indicated that MSTRG.16086.1, MSTRG.16087.1, and MSTRG.2447.1 were functionally associated with cuticle protein and chitin biosynthesis. Finally, 11 differentially expressed lncRNAs were significantly enriched in 3rd and 4th instar nymphs. Our findings suggest that lncRNAs play a critical regulatory role during the molting of S. furcifera.

Abstract
Hyphantria cunea (Drury) is a globally important forest pest. We found that the Serratia marcescens Bizio strain SM1 had insecticidal activity against H. cunea, but the transcriptomic response of H. cunea to SM1 were not clear. Therefore, we performed full-length sequencing of the transcriptomes of H. cunea larvae infected with SM1 and the control group. A total of 1,183 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by comparing the group infected with SM1 and the control group, including 554 downregulated genes and 629 upregulated genes. We found many downregulated genes in metabolic pathways. Furthermore, some of these downregulated genes were involved in cellular immunity, melanization, and detoxification enzymes, which showed that SM1 weakened H. cunea immunity. In addition, genes in the juvenile hormone synthesis pathway were upregulated, which was detrimental to the survival of H. cunea. This research analyzed the transcriptomic response of H. cunea to SM1 by high-throughput full-length transcriptome sequencing. The results provide useful information to explore the relationship between S. marcescens and H. cunea, and theoretical support for the application of S. marcescens and the control of H. cunea in the future.

Abstract
The predatory stink bug P. Lewisi shows potential for Integrated Pest Management programs for controlling Lepidoptera pest insects in crops and forests. The importance of this insect for biological control has stimulated several studies into its biology and ecology. However, P. lewisi has little genetic information available. In the present study, PacBio single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing and Illumina RNA-seq sequencing technologies were used to reveal the full-length transcriptome profiling and tissue-specific expression patterns of P. lewisi. A total of 12,997 high-quality transcripts with an average length of 2,292 bp were obtained from different stages of P. lewisi using SMRT sequencing. Among these, 12,101 were successfully annotated in seven public databases. A total of 67 genes of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases, 43 carboxylesterase genes, and 18 glutathione S-transferase genes were identified, most of which were obtained with full-length ORFs. Then, tissue-specific expression patterns of 5th instar nymphs were analyzed using Illumina sequencing. Several candidate genes related to detoxification of insecticides and other xenobiotics as well as the degradation of odors, were identified in the guts and antennae of P. lewisi. The current study offered in-depth knowledge to understand the biology and ecology of this beneficial predator and related species.

Abstract
Tokay Gecko (Gekko gecko) is a rare and endangered medicinal animal in China. Its dry body has been used as an anti-asthmatic agent for two thousand years. To date, the genome and transcriptome of this species remain poorly understood. Here, we adopted single molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing to obtain full-length transcriptome data and characterized the transcriptome structure. We identified 882,273 circular consensus (CCS) reads, including 746,317 full-length nonchimeric (FLNC) reads. The transcript cluster analysis revealed 212,964 consensus sequences, including 203,994 high-quality isoforms. In total, 111,372 of 117,888 transcripts were successfully annotated against eight databases (Nr, eggNOG, Swiss-Prot, GO, COG, KOG, Pfam and KEGG). Furthermore, 23,877 alternative splicing events, 169,128 simple sequence repeats (SSRs), 10,437 lncRNAs and 7,932 transcription factors were predicted across all transcripts. To our knowledge, this report is the first to document the G. gecko transcriptome using SMRT sequencing. The full-length transcript data might accelerate transcriptome research and lay the foundation for further research on G. gecko.

Abstract
Coelomactra antiquata is an important aquatic economic shellfish with high medicinal value. However, because C. antiquata has no reference genome, a lot of molecular biology research cannot be carried out, so the analysis of its transcripts is an important step to study the regulatory genes of various substances in C. antiquata. In the present study, we conducted the first full-length transcriptome analysis of C. antiquata by using PacBio single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing technology. The results identified a total of 39,209 unigenes with an average length of 2,732 bp, 23,338 CDSs, 251 AS events, 9,881 lncRNAs, 20,106 SSRs, and 2,316 TFs. Subsequently, 59.22% (23,220) of the unigenes were successfully annotated, of which 23,164, 18,711, 15,840, 13,534, and 13,474 unigenes could be annotated using NR, Swiss-prot, KOG, GO, and KEGG databases, respectively. This study lays the foundation for the follow-up research of molecular biology and provides a reference for studying the more medicinal value of C. antiquata.
