RESUMEN
This study isolated CFI gene from Pelteobagrus fulvidraco and named it PfCFI. The cDNA of PfCFI is 2374â¯bp long, including a 52â¯bp 5' untranslated sequence, a 222â¯bp 3' untranslated sequence, and an open reading frame (ORF) of 2100â¯bp encoding polypeptide consisting of 699 amino acids. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that the PfCFI was closely related to CFI of Ictalurus punctatus. Real-time quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis indicate that there is the PfCFI gene which expressed in all the rest of tested tissues in varied levels, and mainly distributed in liver and least in heart. The reseachers induce the expressions level of PfCFI gene in liver, spleen, head kidney and blood at different points in time after challenged with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and polyriboinosinic polyribocytidylic acid (poly I:C), respectively. Together these results suggested that CFI gene plays an important role in resistance to pathogens in yellow catfish immunity.

Mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) help advance our learning of molecular evolution and phylogenetic relationships. The mitogenome of H. latimera is 16,246 bp in length, which typically contains 37 animal mitogenome genes consisting of 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes, as well as a control region. The AT content of H. latimera is 69.1%. The A + T skew of the mitogenome of H. latimera was slightly negative (-0.017). The size of Thirteen PCGs is from 162 bp to 1731 bp. Twenty-two tRNA genes ranged from 62 to 73 bp and were highly A + T biased. All tRNA genes owed a typical cloverleaf structure, not including the trnS1 gene lacking a dihydroxyuridine arm. One PCG, two rRNAs, and 12 of the tRNAs were rearranged compared to the pancrustacean gene order. Phylogenetic analysis revealed the locationt of H. latimera among the Varunidae family.
