Dynamic Transcriptional Landscape of Grass Carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) Reveals Key Transcriptional Features Involved in Fish Development.

ABSTRACT: A high-quality baseline transcriptome is a valuable resource for developmental research as well as a useful reference for other studies. We gathered 41 samples representing 11 tissues/organs from 22 important developmental time points within 197 days of fertilization of grass carp eggs in order to systematically examine the role of lncRNAs and alternative splicing in fish development. We created a high-quality grass carp baseline transcriptome with a completeness of up to 93.98 percent by combining strand-specific RNA sequencing and single-molecule real-time RNA sequencing technologies, and we obtained temporal expression profiles of 33,055 genes and 77,582 transcripts during development and tissue differentiation. A family of short interspersed elements was preferentially expressed at the early stage of zygotic activation in grass carp, and its possible regulatory components were discovered through analysis. Additionally, after thoroughly analyzing alternative splicing events, we discovered that retained intron (RI) alternative splicing events change significantly in both zygotic activation and tissue differentiation. During zygotic activation, we also revealed the precise regulatory characteristics of the underlying functional RI events.

Project description:BackgroundMyxovirus resistance (Mx) proteins are crucial effectors of the innate antiviral response against a wide range of viruses, mediated by the type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling pathway. However, the antiviral activity of Mx proteins is diverse and complicated in different species.Methodology/principal findingsIn the current study, two novel Mx genes (CiMx1 and CiMx3) were identified in grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella). CiMx1 and CiMx3 proteins exhibit high sequence identity (92.1%), and low identity with CiMx2 (49.2% and 49.5%, respectively) from the GenBank database. The predicted three-dimensional (3D) structures are distinct among the three isoforms. mRNA instability motifs also display significant differences in the three genes. The spatial and temporal expression profiles of three C. idella Mx genes and the IFN-I gene were investigated by real-time fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) following infection with grass carp reovirus (GCRV) in vivo and in vitro. The results demonstrated that all the four genes were implicated in the anti-GCRV immune response, that mRNA expression of Mx genes might be independent of IFN-I, and that CIK cells are suitable for antiviral studies. By comparing expression patterns following GCRV challenge or poly(I:C) treatment, it was observed that GCRV blocks mRNA expression of the four genes. To determine the functions of Mx genes, three CiMx cDNAs were cloned into expression vectors and utilized for transfection of CIK cells. The protection conferred by each recombinant CiMx protein against GCRV infection was evaluated. Antiviral activity against GCRV was demonstrated by reduced cytopathic effect, lower virus titer and lower levels of expressed viral transcripts. The transcription of IFN-I gene was also monitored.Conclusions/significanceThe results indicate all three Mx genes can suppress replication of grass carp reovirus and over-expression of Mx genes mediate feedback inhibition of the IFN-I gene.
