Abstract
This study presents a genome-wide identification of NOD-like receptors (NLRs) in the golden pompano, key to its innate immunity. We identified 30 ToNLRs, analyzing their chromosomal positions, characteristics, evolutionary relationships, evidence of positive selection, and synteny with the yellowtail kingfish. Our findings categorize these NLRs into three main subgroups: NLRA, NLRC, and the distinct ToNLRX1. Post-exposure to Streptococcus agalactiae, most ToNLRs increased expression in the spleen, whereas NLRC3like13, NLRC3like16, and NLRC3like19 so in the kidneys. Upon Cryptocaryon irritans exposure, we categorized our groups based on the site of infection into the control group (BFS), the trophont-attached skin (TAS), and the nearby region skin (NRS). ToAPAF1 and ToNOD1 expressions rose in the NRS, in contrast to decreased expressions of ToNLRC5, ToNWD1 and ToCIITA. Other ToNLRs showed variable expressions in the TAS. Overall, this research lays the groundwork for further exploration of innate immunity in the golden pompano.
