摘要: Metabolic adaption to hypoxic stress in crustaceans implies a shift from aerobic to anaerobic metabolism. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is a key enzyme in glycolysis in prawns. However, very little is known about the role of LDH in hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) pathways of prawns. In this study, full-length cDNA of LDH (MnLDH) was obtained from the oriental river prawn Macrobrachium nipponense, and was characterized. The full-length cDNA is 2267-bp with an open reading frame of 999 bp coding for a protein of 333 amino acids with conserved domains important for function and regulation. Phylogenetic analysis showed that MnLDH is close to LDHs from other invertebrates. Quantitative real-time PCR revealed that MnLDH is expressed in various tissues with the highest expression level in muscle. MnLDH mRNA transcript and protein abundance in muscle, but not in hepatopancreas, were induced by hypoxia. Silencing of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) alpha or HIF-1 beta subunits blocked the hypoxia-dependent increase of LDH expression and enzyme activity in muscle. A series of MnLDH promoter sequences, especially the full-length promoter, generated an increase in luciferase expression relative to promoterless vector; furthermore, the expression of luciferase was induced by hypoxia. These results demonstrate that MnLDH is probably involved a HIF-1-dependent pathway during hypoxia in the highly active metabolism of muscle.
