Neocaridina denticulata sinensis
is a suitable candidate for crustacean scientific research. Two calcium-associated cuticular protein genes, named
NdCAP-1
and
NdCAP-2
, were obtained from
N. denticulata sinensis
. Molecular docking simulated the binding effect of both proteins and calcium ions. Semi-quantitative reverse transcription PCR results show that
NdCAP-1
is expressed in D
2–4
stage,
NdCAP-2
expressed in D
2–4
and A–B stages, and both were significantly expressed in the cephalothorax cuticle and pereiopods. Then, it was revealed that
NdCAP-1
and
NdCAP-2
are regulated by
NdBcR
-mediated 20E signaling pathways. Knockdown of
NdCAP-1
and
NdCAP-2
was observed to cause surface defects. The recombinant proteins (rNdCAP-1 and rNdCAP-2), obtained by prokaryotic expression, had calcium-binding and chitin-binding ability, inhibited formation of calcium carbonate precipitate. These results show that calcium-associated cuticular proteins play important roles in cuticle formation and calcification. |
