The full-length cDNA of VpSeGPx2 was 963<!--> <span>bp with a conserved selenocysteine<span><span> insertion sequence (SECIS) in its 3′-UTR, encoding a polypeptide of 242 amino acids with a </span>signal peptide<span> of 19-amino acids. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that VpSeGPx2 was clustered with Se-GPx proteins from marine mollusks. VpSeGPx2 was found to be significantly down-regulated by 10</span></span></span> <!-->μg/L of copper and up-regulated by 40<!--> <!-->μg/L of copper. However, cadmium exposure seemed to have no significant effect on the expression of VpSeGPx2 transcripts. As for a previously cloned non-Se-containing VpGPx, both concentrations of copper exposure (10 and 40<!--> <!-->μg/L) significantly increased its mRNA expression, and a higher concentration (40<!--> <span>μg/L) of cadmium significantly inhibited the expression of VpGPx transcript. These results suggested that VpSeGPx2 and VpGPx were both involved in the detoxification of copper pollution but seemed to play a different role in cadmium pollution.</span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":37751,"journal":{"name":"Agri Gene","volume":"1 ","pages":"Pages 46-52"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/j.aggene.2016.06.003","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"53993974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
