Myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) is an adaptor protein of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signalling pathways that activates the innate immune system. Herein, MyD88 was identified in the economically important freshwater fish Pelteobagrus fulvidraco. The complete 2156 bp PfMyD88 cDNA includes a 147 bp 5'-untranslated region (UTR), a 1133 bp 3'-UTR, and an open reading frame (ORF) of 876 bp encoding a 291 residue protein containing Death and Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domains. The deduced protein sequence shares 88.8%, 73.8% and 59.3% identity with orthologs in Ictalurus punctatus, Danio rerio and Homo sapiens, respectively. qRT-PCR revealed expression in all tested tissues, highest in trunk kidney, followed by spleen, and lowest in muscle. After challenge with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or polyriboinosinic polyribocytidylic acid (Poly I:C), PfMyD88 expression was up-regulated in blood, liver, head kidney and spleen. Thus, PfMyD88 acts in innate immunity in P. fulvidraco.
髓样分化因子 88(MyD88)是 Toll 样受体(TLR)信号通路的衔接蛋白,可激活先天免疫系统。本文在经济重要的淡水鱼类黄颡鱼(Pelteobagrus fulvidraco)中鉴定到了 MyD88。PfMyD88 的完整 2156bp cDNA 包括 147bp 的 5'非翻译区(UTR)、1133bp 的 3'UTR 和 876bp 的开放阅读框(ORF),可编码一个由 291 个残基组成的蛋白质,含有死亡和 Toll/白细胞介素-1 受体(TIR)结构域。推导的蛋白序列与美洲鲶(Ictalurus punctatus)、斑马鱼(Danio rerio)和人类的同源物分别具有 88.8%、73.8%和 59.3%的同一性。qRT-PCR 显示 PfMyD88 在所有测试的组织中均有表达,在躯干肾脏中表达最高,其次是脾脏,在肌肉中表达最低。在脂多糖(LPS)或聚肌苷酸:聚胞苷酸(Poly I:C)刺激后,PfMyD88 在血液、肝脏、头肾和脾脏中的表达上调。因此,PfMyD88 在黄颡鱼的先天免疫中发挥作用。
