Data on molecular characterization and expression profiles of the NF-κB repressing factor gene in red sea bream (Pagrus major).

ABSTRACT: Nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) repressing factor (NKRF) specifically inhibits the transcriptional activity of NF-κB protein. The PmNKRF cDNA is composed of 757 amino acid residues. Alignment analysis revealed that the G-patch and R3H domains are conserved in different organisms. We aimed to analyse red sea bream NKRF (PmNKRF) gene expression after infection with pathogens [Streptococcus iniae or red sea bream iridovirus (RSIV)] and in healthy individuals. In healthy individuals, PmNKRF was ubiquitously expressed in all 12 tested tissues, predominantly in the head kidney and spleen. Expression of PmNKRF was significantly up-regulated in the gills, kidney, liver and spleen after RSIV infection. After S. iniae infection, PmNKRF expression was significantly down-regulated in the g
