We therefore investigated the roles of orthologs of the D mrt gene family, key players in male gonad differentiation in mammals, in P. fucata sex diff erentiation and sexual development. Pf-Dmrt4 exhibits features typical of the D mrt family, and displays significant homologies to the DMRT4 cluster. Pf-Dmrt4 mRNA expression in the gonads during a gametogenic cycle, measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction, was maximal in mature individuals. P f-Dmrt4 expression, demonstrated by in situ hybridization, was localized in the spermatozoa, spermatids, oocytes and vitellogenic oocytes. Knockdown of Pf-Dmrt4 with double-stranded RNA resulted in decreased mRNA expression levels. And Pf-Dmrt4-dsRNA-injected groups showed spawning-stage male gonads, with ruptured follicles and released spermatozoa. Our results enhance the understanding of sex determination and differentiation in P. fucata and suggest that Pf-Dmrt4 could be involved in male gonadal development, and maintenance of male gonadal function.展开更多

TnT’s function has been extensively described in vertebrates, but its role has been obscure in molluscan muscles. Our previous work indicated that the TnC and TnI subunits work in adductor phasic muscle, but not in catch muscle. Here, we have characterized TnT from the Japanese bivalve pearl oyster Pinctada fucata to start to explain the function of Tn in molluscan muscle contraction. We determined the primary structure of the full-length TnT protein from the P. fucata adductor muscle (Pifuc-TnT), and found that it is composed of 316 amino acid residues with a predicted molecular mass of 37.4 kDa. Multiple sequence alignment showed that Pifuc-TnT has an extension of >60 residues at the C-terminus that are not present in vertebrate TnTs, including known TnTs from other mollusks. Pifuc-TnT gene structure predictions using Splign alignment of the cDNA generated in this study and genome sequences indicated that Pifuc-TnT consists of 13 exons. Start and stop codons are located in exons 2 and 12, respectively. Quantitative real-time PCR revealed that the Pifuc-TnT gene was predominantly expressed in adductor phasic muscle, weakly in adductor catch muscle, slightly in gill, and not at all in mantle and foot. These findings suggest that TnT plays a regulatory role in adductor phasic muscle contraction, but not in catch contraction. Isothermal titration calorimetry revealed that unlike vertebrate TnTs, Pifuc-TnT does not interact with P. fucata tropomyosin-1 nor with tropomyosin-2. These findings in P. fucata imply that Tn functions differently in molluscan muscle than it does in vertebrates.展开更多

The function of troponin I (TnI) in vertebrates has been extensively characterized, but its role in molluscan muscles has not yet been elucidated. Our previous work suggested that the troponin C subunit has a role in adductor phasic muscle but not in catch muscle. Here, we investigated the molecular characteristics of TnI from the bivalve Japanese pearl oyster, Pinctada fucata to aid the elucidation of the function of molluscan muscle troponin. We determined the primary structure of the full-length TnI protein from the P. fucata adductor muscle (Pifuc-TnI) and found that it is composed of 286 amino acid residues with a predicted molecular weight of 33,737. Motif structure predictions and multiple sequence alignments revealed that Pifuc-TnI has a 138 residue extension at its N-terminus compared with rabbit TnI. This is analogous to characterized TnIs from other mollusks. However, unlike scallop TnI, Pifuc-TnI is predicted to contain two cAMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation sites, at residues 39 - 45 (RRGTEDD) and 145 - 151 (KKKSKRK). Phylogenetic analysis indicated that Pifuc-TnI and molluscan TnIs were grouped into the same clade. Pifuc-TnI gene structure predictions using Splign alignment of our obtained cDNA and genome sequences indicated that Pifuc-TnI consists of fifteen exons, with the start and stop codons located in exon 2 and exon 11, respectively. Using quantitative real-time PCR, we determined that the Pifuc-TnI gene is predominantly expressed in adductor phasic muscle, weakly in adductor catch muscle, and is not expressed in the gill, mantle or foot. These findings suggest that TnI, as a component of the troponin complex, plays a regulatory role in adductor phasic muscle contraction, but not in catch contraction.展开更多
