Proteomic analysis of proteins associated with body mass and length in yellow perch, Perca flavescens.

چکیده
The goal of commercial yellow perch aquaculture is to increase muscle mass which leads to increased profitability. The accumulation and degradation of muscle-specific gene products underlies the variability in body mass (BM) and length observed in pond-cultured yellow perch. Our objective was to apply a combination of statistical and proteomic technologies to identify intact and/or proteolytic fragments of muscle specific gene products involved in muscle growth in yellow perch. Seventy yellow perch randomly selected at 10, 12, 16, 20, and 26 wk of age were euthanized; BM and length were measured and a muscle sample taken. Muscle proteins were resolved using 5-20% gradient SDS-PAGE, stained with SYPRO Ruby and analyzed using TotalLab software. Data were analyzed using stepwise multiple regression with the dependent variables, BM and length and proportional OD of each band in a sample as a potential regressor. Eight bands associated with BM (R(2) = 0.84) and nine bands with length (R(2) = 0.85) were detected. Protein sequencing by nano-LC/MS/MS identified 20 proteins/peptides associated with BM and length. These results contribute the identification of gene products and/or proteolytic fragments associated with muscle growth in yellow perch.

Influence of lake chemistry and fish age on cadmium, copper, and zinc concentrations in various organs of indigenous yellow perch (Perca flavescens)1
Concentrations of Cd, Cu, and Zn were determined in various organs of juvenile yellow perch (Perca flavescens) collected from eight lakes located along a metal concentration gradient. Metal exposure was evaluated on the basis of the free ambient Cd2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, and Ca2+ concentrations, as estimated from chemical equilibrium simulations using the ambient water chemistry data. Based on regressi...

The cDNA sequences encoding prolactin (PRL), somatolactin (SL) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) genes of the yellow perch were obtained. Brain, pituitary, gill, heart, liver, stomach, kidney, spleen, muscle and gonad tissues were analyzed from both male and female adult yellow perch for sex-specific tissue expression. The full length cDNA of yellow perch PRL consists of 2306 bp and PRL ...
متن کاملExploring spatial distributions of larval yellow perch Perca flavescens, bluegill Lepomis macrochirus and their prey in relation to wind.
The objectives of the present study were to determine if spatial differences existed between zooplankton, larval yellow perch Perca flavescens and bluegill Lepomis macrochirus (<13 mm total length, L(T)) in Pelican Lake (332 ha), NE, U.S.A. It was hypothesized that wind could act as a transport mechanism for larval fishes in this shallow lake, because strong winds are common at this geographic ...

in the Proceedings of the World Aquaculture Society Conference. Page 1142. February 22-25, 2013. Nashville. Yellow perch Perca flavescens is a particularly important aquacultural and ecological species in the Great Lakes Region (GLR)and the Midwest USA. The demand for this species has remained very high in the GLR. Due to the relatively slow growth of currently cultured populations of yellow pe...
