摘要
Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription (STAT)-1 is an indispensable signal transduction protein that is involved in the interferon pathway. STAT-1 plays an important role in the innate immune response. The full-length cDNA of Malabar grouper (Epinephelus malabaricus) STAT-1, MgSTAT1, was cloned. Phylogenetic analysis was performed based on the amino acid sequence. Our results indicate that STAT1 is highly conserved with other vertebrates. We also report the expression of MgSTAT1 in different tissues treated with immune stimulants, including LPS, CpG ODN, and poly (I:C), in vivo. The expression of MgSTAT1 was significantly induced in the head kidney upon treatment with poly (I:C) compared to the control. Moreover, the results indicate that MgSTAT1 is up-regulated during nervous necrosis virus (NNV) infection. This study reveals that similar to the mammalian antiviral response, MgSTAT1 mediates the immune response in Malabar grouper. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
