摘要 | Ferritin is a ubiquitous protein that plays an important role in iron storage and iron-withholding strategy of innate immunity. In this study, three genes encoding different ferritin subunits were cloned from bay scallop Argopecten irradians (AiFer1, AiFer2 and AiFer3) by rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) approaches based on the known ESTs. The open reading frames of the three ferritins are of 516 bp, 522 bp and 519 bp, encoding 171,173 and 172 amino acids, respectively. All the AiFers contain a putative Iron Regulatory Element (IRE) in their 5'-untranslated regions. The deduced amino acid sequences of AiFers possess both the ferroxidase center of mammalian H ferritin and the iron nucleation site of mammalian L ferritin. Gene structure study revealed two distinct structured genes encoding a ferritin subunit (AiFer3). Quantitative real-time PCR analysis indicated the significant up-regulation of AiFers in hemocytes after challenged with Listonella anguillarum, though the magnitudes of AiFer1 and AiFer2 were much higher than that of AiFer3. Taken together, these results suggest that AiFers are likely to play roles in both iron storage and innate immune defense against microbial infections. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved. |
