    Abstract:
    As an adaptor protein functions essentially in the activation of NF-κΒ and MAPK signaling pathways mediated by NOD1 and NOD2, RIP2 plays important roles in the host innate immune responses. In the present study, the RIP2 ortholog termed Lc-RIP2 was identified and characterized in large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea). It was revealed that Lc-RIP2 is consisted of an open reading frame (ORF) of 1695 bp, encoding a protein of 564 aa, with an N-terminal kinase domain and a C-terminal caspase activation and recruitment domain (CARD). Subcellular localization assays demonstrated that Lc-RIP2 was a cytosolic protein, which was broadly distributed in the examined tissues/organs, and could be induced in response to poly I:C, LPS, PGN, and Pseudomonas plecoglossicida stimulations in vivo according to qRT-PCR analysis. Notably, Lc-RIP2 overexpression in vitro was sufficient to abolish SVCV proliferation in EPC cells, and could significantly induce the activation of NF-κB, IRF3, IRF7, and IFN1 promoters. In addition, luciferase assays found that Lc-RIP2 could cooperate with Lc-MAVS, Lc-TRAF3, Lc-TRAF6, Lc-IRF3, and Lc-IRF7 in NF-κB activation, associate with Lc-TRIF, Lc-MAVS, Lc-TRAF3, Lc-IRF3, and Lc-IRF7 in IRF3 activation, enhance Lc-TRIF, Lc-MAVS, Lc-TRAF3, and Lc-TRAF6 mediated IRF7 activation, and Lc-IRF3 mediated IFN1 activation, whereas suppress NF-κB activation when co-expressed with Lc-TRIF. Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) assays also demonstrated that Lc-RIP2 interacts separately with Lc-TRIF, Lc-MAVS, Lc-TRAF3, Lc-TRAF6, Lc-IRF3, and Lc-IRF7. It is thus collectively indicated that Lc-RIP2 function dominantly in the regulation of the host innate immune signaling.
