Expression And Regulation Of Ccbax By Mir-124 In The Caudal Fin Cell Of C. Auratus Gibelio Upon Cyprinid Herpesvirus 2 Infection
JOURNAL OF FISH DISEASES(2021)
Abstract
Bcl2 family proteins play a critical role in cell death or survival. BAX, the death-promoting protein of bcl2 family, mediated mitochondrial pathway inducing cells' apoptosis in mammal. MiRNAs have been implicated as negative regulators down-regulating genes' expression after post-transcriptional level. At present, little is known about the regulatory mechanism of miRNA on the Bcl2 family proteins during CyHV-2 infection in silver crucian carp (Carassius auratus gibelio). In this study, the ccBAX (silver crucian carp BAX) gene was cloned and expressed, and polyclonal antibodies were raised in mouse against the purified ccBAX-GST fusion protein. The structure analysis indicated that ccBAX protein included four conserve domains (BH1, BH2, BH3 and transmembrane domains) and the expression of ccBAX protein occurred throughout the cells. Furthermore, two miRNAs (miR-124 and miRNA-29b) were identified to negatively regulate ccBAX gene expression in GiCF cell. miR-124 was found to suppress the expression of WT-ccBAX (wild type), but not the MT-ccBAX (mutant). Overall, the results demonstrated that the expression of the ccBAX gene was significantly down-regulated by miR-124 in silver crucian carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) during CyHV-2 infection.
