Molecular characterization and nutritional regulation of sodium-dependent glucose cotransporter 1 (Sglt1) in blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala). Sci Rep 2021; 11:13962. [PMID: 34234240 PMCID: PMC8263726 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-93534-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2021] [Accepted: 06/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Fish has poor utilization capacity for glucose metabolism. The possible reasons are related to the core regulatory elements of glucose metabolism: transport proteins. Studies on the species and functions of Sglt1 in aquatic animals are scarce, therefore further studies are needed. In this study, the full length of blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala) sglt1 (Masglt1) was 2965 bp including 5′-UTR region of 168 bp and a 3′-UTR region of 820 bp. Masglt1 have a highest sequence homology in Cypriniformes fish. MaSglt1 protein was identified as a transmembrane protein with 14 α-helix structures locating plasma membrane by the methods of predicted tertiary structure and immunohistochemical staining. MaSglt1 protein has a hollow channel forms which could be specifically coupled with two Na+ ions to recognize glucose and carry out transmembrane transport. High sglt1 mRNA was found in the intestine and kidney. The mRNA levels of intestinal sglt1 had a positive correlation with dietary starch levels at 3 h after feeding, and the mRNA was significantly higher than that at 24 h, however, the mRNA levels of renal sglt1 presented results opposite to those of intestinal sglt1. The mRNA levels of renal sglt1 had a positive correlation with dietary starch levels at 24 h after feeding, and the expression was significantly higher than that at 3 h. These results confirmed that Masglt11 was mainly found in the intestine and kidney and was located in the cell membrane, playing a role in glucose homeostasis.

[PMID: 33224969 PMCID: PMC7666707 DOI: 10.1155/2020/7146701] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/20/2020] [Revised: 09/23/2020] [Accepted: 10/16/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Sugar transporter (SUT) genes are associated with multiple physiological and biochemical processes in filamentous fungi, such as the response to various stresses. However, limited systematic analysis and functional information of SUT gene family have been available on Aspergillus oryzae (A. oryzae). To investigate the potential roles of SUTs in A. oryzae, we performed an integrative analysis of the SUT gene family in this study. Based on the conserved protein domain search, 127 putative SUT genes were identified in A. oryzae and further categorized into eight distinct subfamilies. The result of gene structure and conserved motif analysis illustrated functional similarities among the AoSUT proteins within the same subfamily. Additionally, expression profiles of the AoSUT genes at different growth stages elucidated that most of AoSUT genes have high expression levels at the stationary phase while low in the adaptive phase. Furthermore, expression profiles of AoSUT genes under salt stress showed that AoSUT genes may be closely linked to salt tolerance and involved in sophisticated transcriptional process. The protein-protein interaction network of AoSUT propounded some potentially interacting proteins. A comprehensive overview of the AoSUT gene family will offer new insights into the structural and functional features as well as facilitate further research on the roles of AoSUT genes in response to abiotic stresses.
