摘要	对虾病害在世界范围内的广泛传播，给水产养殖和沿海农村经济造成了重大损失。深入开展对虾免疫机制研究并在此基础上寻找对虾疾病防治的有效方法已成为当务之急。研究表明，当对虾等甲壳动物受到外界病原刺激时，其体内的吞噬细胞在吞噬活动中会激活磷酸己糖支路的代谢，引起呼吸爆发，产生多种活性氧分子。另外，受到病原侵染的对虾还会产生其他多种免疫反应，这些免疫反应将消耗大量的能量（ATP），产能的呼吸链会加速运转，由此也会引发大量活性氧的产生。这些活性氧分子可以杀灭入侵的病原微生物，但同时由于活性氧分子反应的非特异性，它们也会对宿主的细胞、组织和器官造成严重伤害，进而导致对虾生理机能的损伤和免疫系统的破坏。所以，消除对虾体内因过度免疫反应产生的过量氧自由基将能够增强其抵御病原侵染的能力，提高免疫力。本论文从中国明对虾体内克隆了线粒体型超氧化物歧化酶（mMnSOD）、胞质型超氧化物歧化酶（cMnSOD）、过氧化氢酶（Catalase）和过氧化物还原酶（Peroxiredoxin）等四种与免疫系统相关的抗氧化酶基因，分析了它们的分子结构特征，组织分布及应答不同病原刺激的表达变化模式，并对其中的mMnSOD基因和Peroxiredoxin基因进行了体外重组表达、分离纯化和酶活性分析。采用RACE技术从中国明对虾血细胞中克隆了两个超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）基因，通过序列比对分析发现，其中一个为mMnSOD基因，另一个为cMnSOD基因。mMnSOD基因的cDNA全长为1185个碱基，其中开放阅读框为660个碱基，编码220个氨基酸，其中推测的信号肽为20个氨基酸。多序列比对结果显示中国明对虾mMnSOD基因的推导氨基酸序列与罗氏沼虾、蓝蟹的推导氨基酸序列同源性分别为88%和82%。Northern blot结果表明，该基因在对虾的肝胰脏、血细胞、淋巴器官、肠、卵巢、肌肉和鳃等组织中均有表达。半定量RT-PCR结果显示，对虾感染病毒3 h时，该基因在血细胞和肝胰脏中的转录水平显著升高。此外，通过构建原核表达载体，本研究对该基因进行了体外重组表达，并对纯化的重组蛋白进行了质谱鉴定和酶活分析。cMnSOD基因的cDNA全长为1284个碱基，其中开放阅读框为861个碱基，编码287个氨基酸。多序列比对结果显示中国明对虾cMnSOD基因的推导氨基酸序列与斑节对虾和凡纳滨对虾的同源性高达98%和94%。组织半定量结果显示，cMnSOD基因在对虾被检测的各个组织中均有表达。另外，半定量RT-PCR结果表明，对虾感染病毒23h时，该基因在肝胰脏中的转录上升到正常水平的3.5倍；而感染后59 h时，该基因在血细胞中的转录上升到正常水平的2.5倍。利用根据其他生物过氧化氢酶保守氨基酸序列设计的简并引物，结合RACE技术，从中国明对虾肝胰脏中克隆到了过氧化氢酶基因的部分片段，片段长1725个碱基。多序列比对结果发现目前所得中国明对虾Catalase基因部分片段的推导氨基酸序列与罗氏沼虾和皱纹盘鲍Catalase氨基酸序列的同源性分别达到95%和73%。通过实时荧光定量PCR技术对中国明对虾Catalase基因在各个组织中的分布情况及病毒感染后该基因在血细胞和肝胰脏中的转录变化进行了研究。结果发现，该基因在肝胰脏、鳃、肠和血细胞中表达水平较高，在卵巢、淋巴器官和肌肉中的表达水平相对较弱；感染病毒23 h和37 h时，对虾血细胞和肝胰脏中该基因mRNA的表达量分别出现显著性上升。依据中国明对虾头胸部cDNA文库提供的部分片段信息，结合SMART-RACE技术，从中国明对虾肝胰脏中克隆到了过氧化物还原酶基因（Peroxiredoxin），该基因的cDNA全长为942个碱基，其中开放阅读框为594个碱基，编码198个氨基酸。中国明对虾Peroxiredoxin基因的推断氨基酸序列与伊蚊、文昌鱼和果蝇等Peroxiredoxin基因的推断氨基酸序列同源性分别为77%、76%和73%。其蛋白理论分子量为22041.17 Da，pI为5.17。Northern blot结果表明，Peroxiredoxin基因在对虾的肝胰脏、血细胞、淋巴器官、肠、卵巢、肌肉和鳃等组织中均有表达。实时荧光定量PCR结果显示，弧菌感染后，该基因在对虾血细胞和肝胰脏中的转录水平都有明显变化并且表达模式不同。另外，对该基因进行了体外重组表达，并对纯化的重组蛋白进行了质谱鉴定和酶活性分析。酶活性分析表明，复性后的重组蛋白能在DTT存在的条件下还原H2O2。
其他摘要	Shrimp cultivation has been suffering serious problems due to the outbreak of diseases in the whole world. It is an emergent and necessary work for us to explore the immune system of shrimps and to find effective methods to control the shrimp diseases. It has been proved that one important immune defense reaction of crustacean hemocytes is phagocytosis when the organism is attacked by microorganisms or viruses. During the course of phagocytosis, the host glycolytic reactions get activated which in turns increase the consumption of oxygen and induce the production of a mass of reactive oxygen species (ROS). At the same time, the host also starts other immune response to defense the infection of pathogenys. All these immune response will need more ATP to support the energy which will also result in more ROS production from the electron transport chain. Though ROS can kill foreign invaders, the mass accumulation of these reactive molecules in organisms will cause serious cell damage. So the rapid elimination of these excessive ROS is essential for the proper functioning of cells and the survival of shrimps. In the thesis, four key genes of antioxidant enzymes (mitochondrial superoxide dismutase, cytosolic superoxide dismutase, catalase and peroxiredoxin) related to the immune system in Chinese shrimp Fenneropenaeus chinensis have been clone and analyzed. Two superoxide dismutase genes, mitochondrial MnSOD (mMnSOD) and cytosolic MnSOD (cMnSOD), were cloned from hemocytes of Chinese shrimp by 3’ and 5’ rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) PCR. The full-length mMnSOD cDNA consists of 1185 bp with a 660 bp open reading frame, encoding 220 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence contains a putative signal peptide of 20 amino acids. Sequence comparison showed that the mMnSOD of F. chinensis shares 88% and 82% identity with that of Macrobrachium rosenbergii and Callinectes sapidus, respectively. mMnSOD transcripts were detected in hepatopancreas, hemocytes, lymphoid organ, intestine, ovary, muscle and gill by Northern blotting. RT-PCR analysis indicated that level of mMnSOD transcripts increased significantly in shrimp hemocytes and hepatopancreas after 3h post-injection of WSSV. In addition, a fusion protein containing mMnSOD was produced in vitro. LC–ESI–MS analysis showed that two peptide fragments of the recombinant protein were identical to the corresponding sequence of M. rosenbergii mMnSOD, and the enzyme activity of the refolded recombinant protein was also measured. The full-length cMnSOD cDNA consists of 1284 bp with an 861 bp open reading frame, encoding 287 amino acids. Sequence comparison showed that the cMnSOD of F. chinensis shares 98% and 94% identity with that of Penaeus monodon and Litopenaeus vannamei, respectively. The transcripts of cMnSOD gene were detected in all tissue tested. RT-PCR analysis indicated that cMnSOD transcripts increased to 3.5 fold of nomal level after 23h post-injection in hepatopancreas and increased to 2.5 fold of nomal level after 59h post-injection change in hemocytes. A partial fragment of catalase gene was cloned from hepatopancreas of Chinese shrimp by RACE and degenerate primer designed according to the sequence homolog with catalase genes from other species. Sequence comparison showed that the deduced amino acid of the partial fragment of catalase gene from F. chinensis shares 95% and 73% identity with that of Macrobrachium rosenbergii and Haliotis discus, respectively. Northern blotting analysis showed that Catalase transcripts were abundant in hepatopancreas, hemocytes, lymphoid organ, intestine and ovary, but were not abundant in muscle and gill. Real-time PCR analysis indicated that catalase gene transcripts increased significantly in shrimp hemocytes and hepatopancreas after 23h and 37h post-injection of WSSV, respectively. A Prx gene was firstly isolated in the crustacean, Chinese shrimp Fenneropenaeus chinensis. The full-length cDNA consists of 942bp with a 594 bp open reading frame, encoding 198 amino acids. The molecular mass of the deduced amino acid is 22041.17 Da with an estimated pI of 5.17. Sequence comparison showed that Prx of F. chinensis shares 77%, 76% and 73% identity with that of Aedes aegypti, Branchiostoma belcheri tsingtaunese and Drosophila melanogaster, respectively. Northern blot analysis revealed the presence of Prx transcripts of F. chinensis in all tissues examined. Real-time PCR analysis indicated that the Prx showed different expression profiles in shrimp hemocytes and hepatopancreas after artificial infection with Vibrio anguillarum. In addition, a fusion protein containing Prx was produced in vitro. LC–ESI–MS analysis showed that four peptide fragments of the recombinant protein were identical to the corresponding sequence of F. chinensis Prx. And the purified recombinant proteins were shown to reduce H2O2 in the presence of dithiothreitol.
