Functional characterization of NOD1 from golden pompano Trachinotus ovatus.

Fish rely on innate immune system for immunity, and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors (NLRs) are a vital group of receptor for recognition. In the present study, NOD1 gene was cloned and characterized from golden pompano Trachinotus ovatus, a commercially important aquaculture fish species. The ORF of T. ovatus NOD1 was 2820 bp long, encoding 939 amino acid residues with a highly conserved domains containing CARD-NACHT-LRRs. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the T. ovatus NOD1 clustered with those of fish and separated from those of birds and mammals. T. ovatus NOD1 has wide tissue distribution with the highest expression in gills. Bacterial challenges (Streptococcus agalactiae and Vibrio alginolyticus) significantly up-regulated the expression of NOD1 with different response time. The results of T. ovatus NOD1 ligand recognition and signaling pathway analysis revealed that T. ovatus NOD1 could recognize iE-DAP at the concentration of ≧ 100 ng/mL and able to activate NF-κB signaling pathway. This study confirmed that NOD1 play a crucial role in the innate immunity of T. ovatus. The findings of this study improve our understanding on the immune function of NOD1 in teleost, especially T. ovatus. Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
