We have previously reported that arginine promotes slow myosin heavy chain expression in cell culture via Akirin2 and the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway. Our goal in the present study was to investigate whether arginine has similar functions and molecular mechanisms in vivo. Kunming mice were fed a diet supplemented with arginine and actively immunized with Akirin2. The study...
To enhance the expression level of recombinant feruloyl esterase in Pichia pastoris, the Aspergillus niger feruloyl esterase (AnFaeA) gene was optimized based on the codon usage bias of P. pastoris and synthesized. The synthetic AnFaeAsyn was inserted into the pPICZαA and then integrated into P. pastoris X33. SDS-PAGE analysis of recombinant feruloyl esterase displayed a single protein band with an...
Fat-inducing transcript 2 (FIT2) plays an important role in the formation of intramuscular lipid droplets in skeletal muscle. However, its role in porcine intramuscular preadipocyte differentiation remains unclear. In the present study, a 789-bp fragment covering the complete coding region of porcine FIT2 (pFIT2) was obtained. Real-time quantitative PCR analysis indicated that pFIT2 mRNA was highly...
In this study, a keratinolytic protease gene (named as kerD) from Aspergillus niger was cloned. The full-length coding sequence of kerD consists of 1,251 bp and encodes a protein with 416 amino acid residues with a molecular mass of 43,831 Da. A DNA fragment encoding mature kerD without its signal sequence was inserted into the expression vector pET30a(+) and successfully expressed in Escherichia coli...
The phosphotyrosine interaction domain containing 1 (PID1) gene was firstly isolated from obese subjects and involved in obesity-associated insulin resistance. In the present study, Duroc×Landrace×Yorkshire (DLY) pig PID1 cDNA was cloned. The entire open reading frame of the cloned porcine PID1 is 654 bp. The predicted protein is composed of 217 amino acids residues with a molecular mass of 24,774...
