The study cloned the dnali1 gene from olive flounder and found its sexually dimorphic expression pattern in fish, with higher expression levels in the testis, especially during spermatogenesis. The repetitive sequences in the 3' UTR of dnali1 may contain regulatory elements for cilia.
Dynein axonemal light intermediate chain 1 (dnali1) is an important part of axonemal dyneins and plays an important role in the growth and development of animals. However, there is little information about dnali1 in fish. Herein, we cloned dnali1 gene from the genome of olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus), a commercially important maricultured fish in China, Japan, and Korea, and analyzed its expression patterns in different gender fish. The flounder dnali1 DNA sequence contained a 771 bp open reading frame (ORF), two different sizes of 5 ' untranslated region (5 ' UTR), and a 1499 bp 3 ' untranslated region (3 ' UTR). Two duplicated 922 nt fragments were found in dnali1 mRNA. The first fragment contained the downstream coding region and the front portion of 3 ' UTR, and the second fragment was entirely located in 3 ' UTR. Multiple alignments indicated that the flounder Dnali1 protein contained the putative conserved coiled-coil domain. Its expression showed sexually dimorphic with predominant expression in the flounder testis, and lower expression in other tissues. The gene with the longer 5 ' UTR was specifically expressed in the testis. The highest expression level in the testis was detected at stages IV and V. Transient expression analysis showed that the 922 bp repeated sequence 3 ' UTR of dnali1 down-regulated the expression of GFP at the early stage in zebrafish. The flounder dnali1 might play an important role in the testis, especially in the period of spermatogenesis, and the 5 ' UTR and the repetitive sequences in 3 ' UTR might contain some regulatory elements for the cilia.
