Abstract

Rhodanese homology domains (RHODs) are the structural modules of ubiquitous tertiary that occur in three major evolutionary phyla. Despite the versatile and important physiological functions of RHODs containing proteins, little is known about their invertebrate counterparts. A novel HSP67B2-like single-domain rhodanese homologue, MdRDH1 from Musca domestica, whose expression can be induced by bacterial infection or oxidative stress. Silencing MdRDH1 through RNAi causes important accumulations of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA), and increases mortality in the larvae treated with bacterial invasion. The E. coli with MdRDH1 and the mutant MdRDH1C135A are transformed, with significant rhodanese activity of the recombinant protein of MdRDH1 in vitro found, without no detection of enzyme activity of the mutant MdRDH1C135A, revealing that catalytic Cys135 in the active-site loop is essential in the sulfurtransferase activity of MdRDH1. When oxidative stress is insulted by phenazine methosulfate (PMS), the MdRDH1 transformed E. coli shows enhanced survival rates compared with those bacteria transformed with MdRDH1C135A. Our research indicates that MdRDH1 confers oxidative stress tolerance, thus rendering evidence for the idea that rhodanese family genes play a critical role in antioxidant defenses. This paper yields novel insights into the potential antioxidative and immune functions of HSP67B2-like rhodanese homologues in invertebrate.
