Description:
Herein we report Xiphophorus DNA polymerase @b (XiphPol@b) mRNA and protein expression levels in brain, liver, gill, and testes tissues from Xiphophorus maculatus, Xiphophorus helleri, and Xiphophorus couchianus parental line fish and two different tumor-bearing Xiphophorus interspecies hybrids. Polymerase @b protein levels in the Xiphophorus tissues were measured by Western blot, and mRNA was measured with a quantitative real time RT-PCR method which employed cRNA construction to produce accurate calibration curves. We found significant differences in both mRNA and protein levels between the tumor-bearing hybrid animals and the three parental species. However, there were no significant differences in either mRNA levels or protein expression observed between the parental species. Thus, interspecies hybridization results in dysregulation of Pol@b expression and this may manifest a modulation in DNA repair capability and susceptibility to latent tumorigenesis.
