Copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu,Zn-SOD) cDNA and manganese superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) cDNA were first cloned from silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) method. The open reading frame (ORF) of Cu,Zn-SOD is 465 bp and encodes a 154 amino acids (aa) protein, whereas the ORF of Mn-SOD is 675 bp and encodes a 224 aa protein. Multiple polypeptide sequence alignment showed high identity both of Cu,Zn-SOD (70-87%) and Mn-SOD (80-96%) with the species compared. Both Cu,Zn-SOD and Mn-SOD were detected in heart, brain, liver, kidney, spleen, muscle, gill and blood. Cu,Zn-SOD and Mn-SOD were expressed throughout the embryogenesis, indicating their important roles during embryonic development specially at the cleavage stage. Acute hypoxia suppressed expression of Cu,Zn-SOD and Mn-SOD in liver significantly, up-regulated them in gill relatively, indicating that tissue-specific expression of Cu,Zn-SOD and Mn-SOD is an important stress response adapted to hypoxia.
铜/锌超氧化物歧化酶(Cu,Zn-SOD)cDNA 和锰超氧化物歧化酶(Mn-SOD)cDNA 首先使用反转录-聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)和快速扩增 cDNA 末端(RACE)方法从银鲫 Hypophthalmichthys molitrix 中克隆。Cu,Zn-SOD 的开放阅读框(ORF)为 465 bp,编码 154 个氨基酸(aa)蛋白,而 Mn-SOD 的 ORF 为 675 bp,编码 224 aa 蛋白。多种多肽序列比对显示,Cu,Zn-SOD(70-87%)和 Mn-SOD(80-96%)与比较物种具有高度同源性。心脏、大脑、肝脏、肾脏、脾脏、肌肉、鳃和血液中均检测到 Cu,Zn-SOD 和 Mn-SOD。Cu,Zn-SOD 和 Mn-SOD 在整个胚胎发生过程中表达,表明它们在胚胎发育过程中特别是在卵裂期发挥着重要作用。急性缺氧显著抑制肝脏中 Cu,Zn-SOD 和 Mn-SOD 的表达,相对上调鳃中的表达,表明 Cu,Zn-SOD 和 Mn-SOD 的组织特异性表达是对缺氧的重要应激反应。
