摘要: Glutaredoxin (Grx) is a glutathione-dependent oxidoreductase that plays a key role in antioxidant defense. In this study, a novel Grx2 gene (SpGrx2) was identified from the mud crab Scylla paramamosain, which consists of a 196 bp 5 & PRIME; untranslated region, a 357 bp open reading frame, and a 964 bp 3 & PRIME; untranslated region. The putative SpGrx2 protein has a typical single Grx domain with the active center sequence C-P-Y-C. The expression analysis revealed that the SpGrx2 mRNA was most abundant in the gill, followed by the stomach and hemocytes. Both mud crab dicistrovirus-1 and Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection as well as hypoxia could differentially induce the expression of SpGrx2. Furthermore, silencing SpGrx2 in vivo affected the expression of a series of antioxidant -related genes after hypoxia treatment. Additionally, SpGrx2 overexpression significantly increased the total antioxidant capacity of Drosophila Schneider 2 cells after hypoxia, resulting in a reduction of reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde content. The subcellular localization results indicated that SpGrx2 was localized in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus of Drosophila Schneider 2 cells. These results indicate that SpGrx2 plays a crucial role as an antioxidant enzyme in the defense system of mud crabs against hypoxia and pathogen challenge.
