中文摘要 | In this study, interferon gamma (IFN-gamma) and interferon gamma receptor (IFN-gamma R) genes have been identified in non-avian reptile, the North American green anole lizard (Anolis carolinensis). Like their counterparts from other jawed vertebrates, lizard IFN-gamma, IFN-gamma R1 and IFN-gamma R2 show conserved features in genomic organizations, gene loci and protein sequences. The IFN-gamma gene has the full cDNA sequence of 936 bp, with 522 bp open reading frame (ORF) encoding 174 amino acids, and has the genomic organization of four exons and three introns as observed in IFN-gamma genes of other classes of vertebrates. The receptors, IFN-gamma R1 and IFN-gamma R2 have the ORF of 1278 and 984 bp, coding for 425 and 327 aa, respectively, with the genome organization of seven exons and six introns. In the gene loci of IFN-gamma, DYRK2, IL22, IL26 and MDM1 are found with conserved synteny in vertebrates, and similar genes adjacent to IFN-gamma R1 and IFN-gamma R2 were also found. These receptors also contain conserved motifs, such as the membrane-proximal region and the C-terminal five residue motif in IFN-gamma R1, and intracellular conservative sequence in IFN-gamma R2, which have been confirmed to mediate down-stream JAK-STAT signaling pathway in mammals. IFN-gamma and its receptors, IFN-gamma R1 and IFN-gamma R2 were constitutively expressed in organs/tissues examined in the lizard, and up-regulated expression of IFN-gamma was observed in organs/tissues examined following the poly(I:C) stimulation, suggesting its antiviral role in lizards. The conserved features of IFN-gamma and its receptors, IFN-gamma R1 and IFN-gamma R2, in gene organization and gene locus as well as in functional domain or motif may imply that the function of type II IFN system is evolutionarily conserved in the green anole lizard, as observed in other classes of vertebrates.
