摘要: C1q is a key subcomponent of the complement Cl complex. This subcomponent contains a globular C1q (gC1q) domain with remarkable ligand binding properties. C1q domain-containing (C1qDC) proteins are composed of all proteins with a gC1q domain. Cl qDC proteins exist in many invertebrates and recognize non-self-ligands. In our study, four C1qDC genes, namely, HcC1qDC1-HcC1qDC4, were identified from Hyriopsis cumingii. HcC1qDC1-HcC1qDC4 encode a protein of 224, 204, 305, and 332 amino acids, respectively. All Cl qDC proteins consist of a gC1q domain at the C terminal. In addition to the gC1q domain, a coiled-coil region is found in HcC1qDC4. Multiple alignments and phylogenetic tree analysis revealed that the Cl qDC proteins highly differ from one another. Tissue distribution analysis demonstrated that HcC1qDC1-HcClqDC4 are widely distributed in hemocytes, hepatopancreas, gills, mantle, and foot. These ClqDC genes are regulated by bacteria to varying degrees. These recombinant HcC1 qDC proteins exhibit a binding activity against different bacterial species. Our results may suggest the roles of HcC1 qDC genes in anti-bacterial immune defense. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
