英文摘要 | RNA interference (RNAi) efficiency dramatically varies among different insects and among administration methods. Numerous studies have revealed that a poor RNAi response is usually associated with a high double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-degrading activity. Using the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, we conducted genome-wide identification of genes encoding dsRNA-degrading nucleases of the DNA/RNA non-specific endonuclease superfamily. To achieve a robust RNAi response in T. castaneum, four dsRNase genes were identified in the genome that seemed to be the potential factors reducing RNAi efficacy. Analysis of biochemical properties revealed that optimal conditions for the dsRNA-degrading activity were alkaline (pH 8.0) in the absence of Mg2+ at 37 degrees C. The dsRNA-degrading activity was predominantly present in the gut, and via hetemlogous expression and RNAi experimentation, gut-specific TcdsRNase1 was confirmed as the major nuclease performing dsRNA degradation. After a knockdown of the TcdsRNase1 nuclease activity, RNAi efficiency improved from 38.6% to 58.9% and from 20.9% to 53.9% for injection and ingestion of dsRNA, respectively. Our results contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms influencing dsRNA stability and even RNAi efficiency in T. castaneum and point to a good method for improving RNAi efficiency through downregulation of the relevant nuclease activity. |
