Molecular characterization of Na+/K+/2Cl− cotransporter 1 alpha from Trachinotus ovatus (Linnaeus, 1758) and its expression responses to acute salinity stress
چکیده انگلیسی
Trachinotus ovatus is widely cultured in the ponds and gulf on the southeast coast of China. The dramatic salinity decrease caused by heavy rainfall could cause mass mortality of T. ovatus in aquaculture. It is very important to understand the osmoregulatory mechanism of T. ovatus. Na+/K+/2Cl− cotransporter 1a (NKCC1a) is involved in the osmoregulation of fish and plays a crucial role in cell volume homeostasis and maintenance of the electrolyte content. In this study, we characterized nkcc1a (designed as Tonkcc1a) from T. ovatus and investigated its expression responses to acute salinity changes. Tonkcc1a is approximately 70 kb in length and contains 26 exons and 25 introns. The phylogenetic analysis confirmed that ToNKCC1a belonged to the NKCC1a subclade. Quantitative real-time (qRT-PCR) analysis indicated that Tonkcc1a was ubiquitously expressed in all examined tissues, with the highest mRNA levels observed in gills, and the lowest level in liver. When T. ovatus were transferred from seawater (30‰) into fresh water, the expression levels of Tonkcc1a mRNA were significantly downregulated in gills and kidney, whereas its expression level was markedly upregulated in intestine. When transferred from seawater (30‰) to 10‰ sea water, the expression levels of Tonkcc1a mRNA were clearly increased in gills and kidney. When transferred from seawater (30‰) to 20‰ sea water, the expression of Tonkcc1a mRNA increased to some extent in gills, kidney, and intestine. When transferred from seawater (30‰) to 40‰ sea water, the expression levels of Tonkcc1a mRNA were dramatically upregulated in gills and intestine compared to that in the control. These results suggested that Tonkcc1a was involved in the response to acute salinity changes.
