Identification and functional characterization of unfolded protein response transcription factor ATF6 gene in kuruma shrimp Marsupenaeus japonicus
چکیده انگلیسی
Activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) pathway is the key branch of unfolded protein response (UPR). In this study, a homolog of ATFα from Marsupenaeus japonicus (MjATF6) was identified using genome sequencing and characterized, so as to investigate the role of ATF6 pathway in anti-viral immunity of M. japonicus. The cDNA of MjATF6 obtained was 1008 bp in length, with an open reading frame (ORF) of 849bp, which had encoded a putative of 283 amino acid proteins. Results of qRT-PCR showed that MjATF6 was distributed in all the six tested tissues, with the higher expression level being seen in hemocytes and hepatopancreas. Furthermore, MjATF6 expression would be up-regulated from 1 day to 7 day under white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) challenge. In comparison, RNA interference-induced MjATF6 knockdown had resulted in a lower 7-day cumulative mortality of M. japonicus in the presence of WSSV infection. Additionally, our results also revealed that less VP28 mRNA was extracted from hemocytes or hepatopancreas of MjATF6 knockdown shrimp than that from the control. Taken together, these results have confirmed that ATF6 pathway is vital for WSSV replication, and that UPR in M. japonicus may facilitate WSSV infection.
