Functional study on candidate regulators mediating the expression of CYP6B7 induced by fenvalerate in a susceptible strain of Helicoverpa armigera.

Transcription factors play an important role in regulating the expression of detoxification genes (e.g. P450s) that confer insecticide resistance. Our previous study identified a series of candidate transcription factors (CYP6B7-fenvalerate association proteins, CAPs) that may be related to fenvalerate-induced expression of CYP6B7 in a field HDTJ strain of H. armigera. Whether these CAPs can mediate the transcript of CYP6B7 induced by fenvalerate in a susceptible HDS strain of H. armigera remains unknown. Further study showed that the expression levels of multiple CAPs were significantly induced by fenvalerate in HDS strain. Knockdown of CAP19 [fatty acid synthase-like (FAS)], CAP22 [polysaccharide biosynthesis domain-containing protein 1 (PBDC1)], CAP24 [5-formyltetrahydrofolate cycloligase (5-FCL)], CAP30 [peptidoglycan recognition protein LB-like (PGRP)] and CAP33 [NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] 1 alpha subcomplex subunit 11 (NDUFA11)] resulted in significant inhibition of CYP6B7 and some other P450 genes expression; meanwhile, the sensitivity of HDS strain larvae to fenvalerate was significantly increased. In addition, PBDC1, PGRP and NDUFA11, either alone or in combination, could significantly enhance the activity of CYP6B7 promoter in HDS strain, as well as the expression level of CYP6B7 gene in Sf9 cells line. These results suggested that PBDC1, PGRP and NDUFA11 may be involved in the transcript regulation of key detoxifying genes in response to fenvalerate in HDS strain of H. armigera.
