凡納濱對蝦甲基法尼酯結(jié)合蛋白的發(fā)現(xiàn)及其功能研究摘要

凡納濱對蝦（Litopenaeusvannamei）是全球重要的養(yǎng)殖蝦類，其對蝦甲基法尼酯結(jié)合蛋白（LvmCBP）在蝦類免疫中發(fā)揮重要作用。本文通過對凡納濱對蝦LvmCBP基因的克隆與表達(dá)，研究了其在蝦類免疫中的功能。結(jié)果表明，LvmCBP在對蝦免疫中處于高度保守狀態(tài)，參與對蝦生長發(fā)育和免疫應(yīng)答，與目前已知的CBP家族成員具有相似的結(jié)構(gòu)和功能特征。此外，該研究還發(fā)現(xiàn)LvmCBP具有多種免疫調(diào)節(jié)活性，包括促進對蝦血細(xì)胞的呼吸爆發(fā)和誘導(dǎo)NF-κB和MAPK信號通路等。這一發(fā)現(xiàn)為深入研究蝦類免疫機制提供了新思路和新依據(jù)。
