ABSTRACT
The COMMD (Copper Metabolism gene MURR1 Domain) gene family consists of 10 members, which are involved in various biological processes such as copper and sodium transport, NF-κB activity and cell cycle progression. However, the study of COMMD gene family in large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) is largely unknown. In this study, 10 COMMD gene family members (named LcCOMMDs) were successfully identified from large yellow croaker. The results showed that there were differences in the number of LcCOMMDs exons at the level of gene structure, which reflected that they had adjusted and changed accordingly in the process of evolution to adapt to the environment and achieved functional diversification. Through phylogenetic analysis, we found that the LcCOMMDs was highly conserved, indicating their important functions in organisms. It was worth noting that the expression levels of LcCOMMD1, LcCOMMD2, LcCOMMD3, LcCOMMD5 and LcCOMMD10 in the spleen changed significantly after bacterial stress, which suggested that these genes might be involved in the regulation of innate immune response. In addition, the expression levels of LcCOMMD1, LcCOMMD2, LcCOMMD3, LcCOMMD5, LcCOMMD7, LcCOMMD8, LcCOMMD9 and LcCOMMD10 changed significantly after hypoxia exposure, which further proved the role of LcCOMMDs in immune function. In summary, this study not only revealed the important role of COMMD genes in the innate immune response of large yellow croaker, but also provided valuable information for further understanding the regulatory mechanism of COMMD gene family under different conditions.
