  Extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) is a serine/threonine-specific kinase,which is activated by downstream signaling molecules of cellular activation,cytokine and chemokine stimulation and various other stimuli.Here we cloned an ERK gene from Litopenaeus vannamei and designated it as lverk.The lverk cDNA contained an open reading frame of 1098 bp encoding 365 amino acids.LVERK had a conserved TEY motif and serine/threonine protein kinase (S_TKc) domain,and close phylogenetic relationship to Penaeus monodon and Marsupenaeus japonicus ERK.Immunofluorescence staining analysis showed that following serum stimulation LVERK was located in cytoplasm and nucleus,but phospho-LVERK was prominently in nucleus,suggesting conserved ERK signaling module occurred in shrimp cells.Then during the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) infection,LVERK and phospho-LVERK increased at the early stage of infection.Once silencing of lverk in vivo,the replication of WSSV was obviously inhibited.Moreover,treatment of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase inhibitor in vitro could result in reduction of WSSV proliferation and delay of viral early gene transcription.Our results indicated a role of LVERK involved in WSSV infection.Understanding how WSSV influences ERK signaling pathway to dismantle an effective immune response may lead to insight into pathogenic progression and possible disease control.

海峡具有重要的战略和航运地位,因此全球典型的繁忙水道集中在海峡及其沿岸港口.频繁的国际航运活动不仅带来所在海域的船舶碰撞风险,其也对海洋脆弱的生态环境造成威胁.调查现有海上交通实态,识别通过海峡的船舶航行特征,特别是主航迹带的确定,是制订海峡航路规划、估算船舶污染物排放及采取污染减排措施的重要依据.为了克服现有主航迹带分析存在过多的主观性,本文整合数理统计学、地理信息科学和海上交通运输工程等学科的
