摘要: Red tilapia has become more popular for aquaculture production in China in recent years. However, the pigmentation differentiation that has resulted from the process of genetic breeding and skin color variation during the overwintering period are the main problems limiting the development of commercial culture. The genetic basis of skin color differentiation is still not understood. Solute carrier family 7 member 11 (slc7a11) has been identified to be a critical genetic regulator of pheomelanin synthesis in the skin of mammals. However, little information is available about its molecular characteristics, expression, location and function in skin color differentiation of fish. In this study, three complete cDNA sequences (2159 bp, 2190 bp and 2249 bp) of slc7a11 were successfully isolated from Malaysian red tilapia, encoding polypeptides of 492, 525 and 492 amino acids respectively. Quantitative real-time PCR demonstrated that slc7a11 mRNA expression is high in the ventral skin of PR (pink with scattered red spots) fish. Immunofluorescence analysis revealed that xCT (the protein encoded by slc7a11) was concentrated mainly in the cytoplasm and nucleus of both the dorsal and ventral skin cells of fish. After RNA interference of slc7a11, slc7a11 and cbs mRNA expressions decreased, but the tyr mRNA expression increased in the skin of fish. Results suggest that slc7a11 plays an important role in skin color formation and differentiation of red tilapia through the melanogenesis pathway.
