“…Arockiaraj et al . () have cloned and characterized a full length Mr GST‐θ cDNA which consists of 1417 bp nucleotides encoded for 221 amino acids with an estimated molecular weight of 25 kDa and a predicted theoretical isoelectric point (pI) of 8.77. Mr GST‐θ shares 37% identity with GST‐θ from Locusta migratoria .…”

Macrobrachium rosenbergii commonly called giant freshwater prawn is a widely farmed crustacean in freshwater. Similar to other aquatic organisms, their growth and well-being is influenced by various physical, chemical and biological factors. We discuss about the critical growth limiting factors as well as disease causing agents and the potential immune molecules of M. rosenbergii that are proved to involve in preventing and/or responding to those limiting factors.

“…The N‐terminal G‐site binds to glutathione and is highly conserved, whereas the C‐terminal H‐site recognizes hydrophobic substrates (Richardson, Gold‐Bouchot, & Schlenk, ). Some isoforms of GSTs have been cloned and characterized from aquatic invertebrates including L. vannamei (Contreras‐Vergara, Harris‐Valle, Sotelo‐Mundo, & Yepiz‐Plascencia, ), Chinese shrimp Fenneropenaeus chinensis (Ren, Sun, Zhao, & Wang, ), freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii (Arockiaraj et al, ), P. monodon (Wang et al, ), African river prawns Macrobrachium vollenhovenii (Adewale & Afolayan, ), clam Atactodea striata (Calmes et al, ), and pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas (Boutet, Tanguy, & Moraga, ).…”

Identification and expression profile of Delta‐GST in black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) exposed to aflatoxin B1 (AFB1)

Delta GST is an insect‐specific class and a prominent class of the glutathione S‐transferases family that is involved in xenobiotic detoxification and antioxidant defense. The full‐length complementary DNA of delta‐class GST from Penaeus monodon (PmDeltaGST; 839 bp long with a 657 bp coding region) was cloned. The encoded polypeptide of 218 amino acids had a predicted molecular mass of 24.30 kDa. Sequence homology and phylogenetic analysis showed that PmDeltaGST was significant similarity to GST genes in crustaceans and insects. Tissue expression profile analysis by quantitative real‐time reverse‐transcription polymerase chain showed that PmDeltaGST was constitutively expressed in all the examined tissues, with the highest expression in hepatopancreas and intestine and the weakest expression in ovary. PmDeltaGST messenger RNA expression and protein levels in hepatopancreas was significantly increased at 14 days postexposure of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), keeping on the high level at 28 days, but decreased at 56 days. The results suggested that PmDeltaGST was involved in the response to AFB1 exposure.

“…Reports show that CAT activity decreases in oxidative stress Gene expression for CAT Schizosaccharomyces pompe was enhanced in oxidative stress. Thus the enzyme activity for GST and CAT and their respective gene expression are valuable indicators of oxidative damage occurring in brain [6][7][8][9].…”
