The 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 2 (17b-HSD2) enzyme regulates steroid levels by the inactivation of estrogen and androgens. Spermatogenesis associated protein 2 (SPATA2) plays a vital role in spermatogenesis in vertebrates including fish. We report cloning and characterization of full cds of 17b-HSD2 and SPATA2 genes in Clarias magur. The full-length cDNA sequences of 17b-HSD2 and SPATA2 were 1187 bp (ORF 1125 bp) and 1806 bp (ORF 1524 bp) encoding 375 and 508 amino acids, respectively. Signal peptide analysis revealed SPATA2 is nonsecretory, while 17b-HSD2 is a secretory protein. Hydropathy profiles showed both proteins are hydrophilic in nature. Tissue distribution of both the genes revealed high mRNA level of SPATA2 in all tissues examined indicating its wide range of expression. 17b-HSD2 indicated higher expression in preparatory phase compared to spawning phase in ovary while it was opposite in case of testis. SPATA2 showed significantly higher expression in preparatory phase compared to spawning phase in both ovary and testis. Administration of OvatideTM (GnRH analog) resulted in upregulation of SPATA2 expression at 6 and 16 h post-injection while 17b-HSD2 showed upregulation only at 6 h post-injection. To the best of our knowledge, this is a first report on characterization of 17b-HSD2 and SPATA2 fulllength cDNA in catfish. Not Available |
