Expression Analysis of a Novel Oxidoreductase Glutaredoxin 2 in Black Tiger Shrimp, <i>Penaeus monodon</i>

Glutaredoxin (Grx) is a glutathione-dependent oxidoreductase that is an important component of the redox system in organisms. However, there is a serious lack of sequence information and functional validation related to Grx in crustaceans. In this study, a novel Grx was identified in <i>Penaeu...

description Glutaredoxin (Grx) is a glutathione-dependent oxidoreductase that is an important component of the redox system in organisms. However, there is a serious lack of sequence information and functional validation related to Grx in crustaceans. In this study, a novel Grx was identified in <i>Penaeus monodon</i> (<i>PmGrx2</i>). The full-length cDNA of <i>PmGrx2</i> is 998 bp, with an open reading frame (ORF) of 441 bp, encoding 119 amino acids. Sequence alignment showed that <i>PmGrx2</i> had the highest identity with Grx2 of <i>Penaeus vannamei</i> at 96.64% and clustered with Grx2 of other crustaceans. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis showed that <i>PmGrx2</i> was expressed in all examined tissues, with higher expression levels in the stomach and testis. <i>PmGrx2</i> was continuously expressed during development and had the highest expression level in the zygote stage. Both ammonia-N stress and bacterial infection could differentially induce the expression of <i>PmGrx2</i> in hepatopancreas and gills. When <i>PmGrx2</i> was inhibited, the expression of antioxidant enzymes was suppressed, the degree of apoptosis increased, and the GSH content decreased with the prolongation of ammonia-N stress. Inhibition of <i>PmGrx2</i> resulted in shrimp being exposed to a greater risk of oxidative damage. In addition, an SNP locus was screened on the exons of <i>PmGrx2</i> that was significantly associated with an ammonia-N-stress-tolerance trait. This study suggests that <i>PmGrx2</i> is involved in redox regulation and plays an important role in shrimps’ resistance to marine environmental stresses.
