Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Present study aimed at revealing the pathogenic mechanism of Akoya oyster disease by proteomic analysis. As a result, cytoskeleton related protein, oxygen transport and storage related protein, bacterial protein were identified among protein spots which showed increased abundance in diseased Akoya oyster compared with uninfected individuals. These results suggested that abnormality of cell tissue and respiratory function occur in diseased Akoya oyster, then bacterial number may be increased with decreased immunity by disease induced weakness. Further study is needed to clarify the pathogenic mechanism of Akoya oyster disease.
