摘要: The rabbitfish Siganus canaliculatus was the first marine teleost reported to possess long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid (LC-PUFA) biosynthetic ability, and the related molecular mechanisms have been well clarified. Here, we investigated the LC-PUFA biosynthesis capability of the congeneric rabbitfish S. guttatus. First, cDNAs of genes for four key enzymes related to LC-PUFA biosynthesis, namely A6A5 fatty acyl desaturase (fads2) (1335 bp; 445 aa), A4 fads2 (1335 bp; 445 aa), and elongation of very long chain fatty acid proteins (elovl5) (873 bp; 291 aa) and elovl4 (906 bp; 302 aa) were cloned from the liver of S. guttatus. The A6A5 fads2, A4 fads2 and elovl5 genes showed high expression in brain, liver, spleen, gallbladder, and intestine but relatively low expression in eye, whereas the elovl4 gene showed specific and high expression in eye. During embryogenesis, mRNA expression of A4 fads2 and elovl4 was detected from 8 h post-fertilization (hpf) and then maintained a high level to 24 hpf, while mRNA expression of A6A5 fads2 and elovl5 reached a peak at 14 hpf but then declined. In addition, ambient salinity (32 ppt and 20 ppt) exerted some regulatory influence on the expression of the four genes during embryogenesis. The levels of C18 PUFA precursors and, especially, PUFA and DHA of the embryos, decreased from 17 hpf to 24 hpf. These results suggested that S. guttatus, similar to the congeneric S. canaliculatus, would have capability for LC-PUFA biosynthesis, which is still not activated at the fertilized egg stage.
