| Abstract | Follistatin (FST) is a single-chain gonadal protein involving in various biological effects. FST plays important roles in not only ovary development but also body growth, whereas myostatin (MSTN) negatively regulates muscle growth. In this study, FST gene in bighead carp (HynFST) was cloned and characterized. A 5797 bp genomic sequence of HynFST, consisting six exons and five introns were cloned. The full-length cDNA of HynFST (2134 bp) has an open reading fragment encoding a polypeptide of 349 amino acids. Sequence comparison and phylogenetic analysis confirmed that FSTs are conserved throughout the vertebrates and HynFST belongs to FST-1 isoform. Nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the HynFST were identified and three of them (g.2443 T > C, g.2852 T > C and g.5483A > G) were significantly associated with four growth-related traits. The average body weight of those fish with the combined genotype (CC CC GG) was 12.15-22.63% higher than that of triplotype (TT TT AA) in two bighead carp populations. HynFST was expressed in most of the development stages and various tissues with highest level in ovary. The co-expression results for FST and MSTN in brain and muscle of divergent weight groups showed that FST may inhibit MSTN expression, thus enhancing growth in bighead carp. Our results suggest that FST has significant genetic effects on the regulation of early growth in bighead carp. This study would facilitate the elucidation of multiple functions of FST gene in fish and exploration of the potentials as a gene marker in selective breeding programs for growth of bighead carp. |
