Research Note: Transcriptomic analysis of LMH cells in response to the overexpression of a hypothetical protein identified in Eimeria tenella SD-01 strain

ABSTRACT: Though genome sequencing of Eimeria tenella predicts more than 8,000 genes, the molecular functions of many proteins remain unknown. In this study, the coding region corresponding to the mature peptide of a hypothetical protein of E. tenella (ETH_00023950) was amplified and expressed in a...

description ABSTRACT: Though genome sequencing of Eimeria tenella predicts more than 8,000 genes, the molecular functions of many proteins remain unknown. In this study, the coding region corresponding to the mature peptide of a hypothetical protein of E. tenella (ETH_00023950) was amplified and expressed in a bacterial system. Following preparation of polyclonal antibody that recognizes ETH_00023950, the expression of ETH_00023950 in merozoites was examined. Meanwhile, we determined the transcriptomic responses of the leghorn male hepatoma (LMH) cells to its expression. Sequencing analysis showed that one single nucleotide polymorphism and one indel of ETH_00023950 of E. tenella SD-01 strain were found compared with that of the UK reference Houghton strain, leading to a frame shift and a premature stop codon. The expression of ETH_00023950 in E. tenella merozoites was confirmed by indirect immunofluorescence and Western blot analysis. Transcriptomic analysis showed that ETH_00023950 altered the expression of 2,680 genes (321 downregulated genes and 2,359 upregulated genes) in LMH cells. The RNA-sequencing data were consistent with the results of the quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis revealed that differentially expressed transcripts were significantly related to 8 pathways, including oxidative phosphorylation and TGF-beta signaling pathway. These findings contribute to understanding host-pathogen interaction and secondary bacterial infections related to E. tenella.
