摘要: Transferrin (Tf) plays an important function in iron homeostasis and metabolism of organisms. In this study, we identified and characterized the Tf gene in Megalobrama amblycephala and evaluated its expression in basal conditions as well as after iron overload and experimental infection with Aeromonas hydrophila. Furthermore, we studied the iron binding properties of recombinant Tf. The full-length M. amblycephala Tf complementary DNA (cDNA) (GenBank accession no.: KX698308) of 2245 bp was cloned and contained a 1953 bp open reading frame (ORF) encoding 650 amino acid residues and flanked by a 68 bp 5' and a 204 bp 3' untranslated regions (UTR). Predicted conservative structure illustrated that M. amblycephala Tf consisted of two conservative Tf domains. Amino acid sequence alignment revealed that M. amblycephala Tf had high similarity with that of cyprinids deposited in Genbank, and phylogenetic analysis showed that M. amblycephala Tf clustered with Ctenopharyngodon idella and Hypophthalmichthys molitrix. Tissue expression pattern analyses demonstrated that the liver was the main Tf mRNA expressing organ, being significantly higher than other tissues (p < 0.05). In the liver, Tf mRNA expression in fish artificially injected with the pathogenic bacteria A. hydrophila was significantly up-regulated, reaching a peak at 12 h post injection (hpi) and then decreasing afterward. The expression in FeCl3-injected fish showed a similar tendency, but reached a peak at 8 hpi. Meanwhile, fish serum iron significantly decreased following A. hydrophila injection, but increased to peak at 4 hpi and then decreased in FeCl3-injected fish. The recombinant M. amblycephala Tf showed iron binding capacity using CAS analysis. These results are helpful to understand the structure and regulation of expression of Tf, as well as the specific function of Tf for both immune responses and iron homeostasis.
