Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of antimicrobial peptides, and particularly relates to an antimicrobial peptide SMGAP derived from turbot, a fusion antimicrobial peptide and applications thereof. Background Art
[0002] Turbot (Scophthalmus maximus), also known as turbot, is a fish of the genus Turbot of the family Cyprinidae. As an important marine farmed fish, it plays an important role in the development of fisheries in my country. However, the frequent occurrence of fish diseases in recent years has become a major pain point restricting its development. In the field of aquaculture disease prevention and control technology, antibiotics have been widely used as a drug with significant efficacy against pathogens, but the massive abuse of antibiotics has also created new difficulties for aquaculture. Given that the new vaccine development process is slow and new vaccine targets need to be continuously developed, antimicrobial peptides naturally present in fish as a bactericidal substance have become a research hotspot to replace antibiotics.
[0003] As a new type of antibacterial substance, antimicrobial peptides exist naturally in organisms and are one of the important components of the nonspecific immune defense system in animals. They play an important role in defending against the invasion of pathogens. They have the advantages of small molecular weight, broad antibacterial spectrum, no toxicity or cell damage to the host, and have good medicinal prospects. In 1972, Swedish scientist Boman and others first discovered antimicrobial peptides in fruit flies and identified their immune and bactericidal functions. Since then, at least more than a thousand antimicrobial peptides have been found in various species.
[0004] Lipids are important substances in the metabolism of organisms, and their storage place, lipid droplets, is not only an organelle for storing lipids, but also an important hub connecting cell metabolism and natural immunity, and is widely involved in host anti-infection and inflammatory responses. It actively participates in the innate immune response to support the cell's antimicrobial defense, mediates the interaction between pathogens and hosts, and also changes the host's metabolism during the infection process. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the role of lipid droplets in pathogen-host competition. Summary of the invention

[0021] In order to make the technical problem solved by the present invention clearer, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings. The specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0022] The antimicrobial peptide SMGAP is located on the lipid droplets, and protein sequence comparison analysis shows that the antimicrobial peptide overlaps with the N-terminus of 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde dehydrogenase in turbot fish, so it is a GAPDH-related antimicrobial peptide. The present invention first identifies the antimicrobial peptide SMGAP on the lipid droplets through proteomics technology, and uses gene function technology to recombinantly express it in cells, studies its intracellular bactericidal effect, and co-incubates it with Edwardsiella piscicida that infects turbot. Its bactericidal effect shows that it has great significance in the research and development and application of actual new antimicrobial drugs.

[0025] Lipid droplets were extracted from turbot (Yantai Development Zone Tianyuan Aquatic Products Co., Ltd.) 7 days after being injected with Edwardsiella piscicida (CCTCC M208068). An amino acid sequence encoding the antimicrobial peptide SMGAP was screened out through its differential peptides. Then, it was compared with the protein sequence of GAPDH by BLAST technology. The following results were obtained by BLAST technology: Figure 1 The nucleotide sequence is shown.
