摘要
Interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7) serves as a critical mediator in the regulation of type I interferon (IFN) response to invading pathogens. Here, an ortholog of IRF7 was characterized in yellow catfish (Pelteobagrus fulvidraco). The full-length cDNA of PfIRF7 consisted of 1516 bp encoding a polypeptide of 425 amino acids. PfIRF7 protein comprised a typical IRF structural architecture, including a DNA binding domain (DBD), an IRF association domain (IAD) and a serine-rich domain (SRD). PfIRF7 was expressed predominantly in the immune-related tissues and transcriptionally upregulated by PolyI:C, LPS, and Edwardsiella ictaluri. Ectopic expression of PfIRF7 led to activation of fish type I IFN promoters and induction of IFN and Vigl, thereby conferring a strong antiviral effect against spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV). Overall, the present data suggest that PfIRF7 may play an essential role in type I IFN response of yellow catfish.
