Diagnostic Molecular Investigation of White Spot Syndrome Virus Finds No Infection in Wild White Shrimp and Brown Shrimp along the Texas Gulf Coast

Journal of Aquatic Animal Health, 2021
Abstract White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) is a virulent disease that disrupts shrimp farm operations throughout the world. While the United States has had only limited outbreaks of WSSV within the past several decades, it is important to ensure that this disease does not infect wild penaeid shrimp populations.

Transcriptome of white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei induced with rapamycin reveals the role of autophagy in shrimp immunity

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2019
Autophagy plays a vital role in innate and adaptive immunity against invading microorganisms, such as virus and bacteria. However, the mechanism underlying autophagy in shrimp is still limited. In our study, we challenged white shrimp L. vannamei with rapamycin to induce autophagy and employed Solexa/Illumina high-throughput RNA-seq method to examine ...

Metabolic responses of the white shrimp, Penaeus vannamei, to ambient ammonia

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2000
Juvenile shrimp were individually exposed during 24 h to 0.007 (control), 0.36, 1.07, and 2.14 mmol/l total ammonia-N at 28 degrees C and 39 ppt salinity. After 22 h of ammonia-N exposure, oxygen consumption was measured for 2 h, and then hemolymph, hepatopancreas, and muscle tissues were sampled.

Actin genes and their expression in pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei

Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2017
Actin is a multi-functional gene family that can be divided into muscle-type actins and non-muscle-type actins. In this study, 37 unigenes encoding actins were identified from RNA-Seq data of Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei. According to phylogenetic analysis, four and three cDNAs belong to cytoplasmic- and heart-type actins and were named ...

Reconsideration of phenoloxidase activity determination in white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2010
Though phenoloxidase (PO) activity has been used as an important index in immunological research of crustaceans, methods for the determination of PO activity are not consistent even for the same species. Plasma, the major location of PO activity, should be the most reasonable sample, instead of hemocytes or serum, for the determination of PO activity ...

Effect of peach gum polysaccharides on quality changes of white shrimp

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2015
Peach gum polysaccharides (PGPs) have both antibacterial and antioxidant activities. In this study, the retardation effect of the PGPs on the quality changes of white shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) during refrigerated storage was investigated. Shrimp samples were untreated with different concentrations of the PGPs solution and then they were stored under ...

An update on mechanism of entry of white spot syndrome virus into shrimps

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2017
Host-parasite relationships can be best understood at the level of protein-protein interaction between host and pathogen. Such interactions are instrumental in understanding the important stages of life cycle of pathogen such as adsorption of the pathogen on host surface followed by effective entry of pathogen into the host body, movement of the ...

Shrimp MyD88 responsive to bacteria and white spot syndrome virus

Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2013
The myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) is an important adapter protein which links members of the toll-like receptor (TLR) to the downstream components to activate related signaling pathways. In the present study, a MyD88 homolog (FcMyD88) was cloned from penaeid shrimp Fenneropenaeus chinensis. The ORF of FcMyD88 consisted of 1434 bp encoding a

Proteinase Activity in the White Shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) Clotting Protein

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2001
The clottable protein (CP) was isolated from white shrimp, Penaeus vannamei plasma as a 400-kDa protein that splits to two identical 200-kDa subunits when it is reduced with 2-ME. However, using DTT as reducing agent, four main bands were observed; two of them (179 and 125 kDa) had the same N-terminus sequence of the intact CP, indicating that most ...

Effect of dandelion polysaccharides on the retardation of the quality changes of white shrimp

International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2014
Dandelion polysaccharides (DPs) have antibacterial and antioxidant activities. In this study, investigated were the effects of the DPs on preservation of white shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) during refrigerated storage. Shrimp samples were untreated or soaked in the DPs solution, and then they were stored under refrigerated conditions.
