Expression analysis data of T-cell surface antigen CD2 gene from rock bream (Oplegnathus fasciatus).

ABSTRACT: This data article reports the expression level of T-cell surface antigen CD2 gene in organs from normal rock bream through quantitative real-time PCR. We also report the expression level of CD2 gene when anthropogenic infection with bacterial or viral pathogens was induced. The expression pattern of CD2 gene in normal rock bream was proved to be highly expressed in hematopoietic cells involved in the production and development of peripheral blood leukocytes (PBLs) and immune cells. It also proved that it maintains high expression for normal immunity in gills, skin, and intestines exposed directly to the environment. The expression pattern of CD2 gene in pathogenic infection has proven that CD2 is a factor involved in immunity. These data are considered to be a basic study of teleost immune system and will contribute to the study of fish blood cells.
