Abstrakt: Aeromonas salmonicida is a common pathogenic bacterial species found in both freshwater and marine fish, leading to significant economic losses in the aquaculture industry. YidC is an accessory to SecYEG and is essential for the SecYEG transporter to insert into the bacterial membrane. However, the roles of the yidC gene on the host immune response remain unclear. Here, we compared the pathogenicity of yidC gene-deleted (ΔyidC) strain and wild-type (SRW-OG1) strain of mesophilic A. salmonicida to Orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides), and explored the impacts of yidC gene on the immune response of E. coioides to mesophilic A. salmonicida infection by using Red/ET recombineering. In this study, the E. coioides in the Secondary infected group had a 53.9 % higher survival rate than those in the Primary infected group. In addition, the adhesion ability of ΔyidC strain decreased by about 83.36 % compared with that of the wild-type (SRW-OG1) strain. Further comparison of the biological phenotype of SRW-OG1 and ΔyidC revealed that this yidC gene could regulate the expression of genes related to iron metabolism and have no effect on bacterial growth under the limited iron concentration. In the low concentration of Fe 3+ and Fe 2+ environment, SRW-OG1 can obtain iron ions by regulating yidC. Based on the above results, yidC gene contributed to the pathogenicity of mesophilic A. salmonicida to E. coioides, deletion of yidC gene promoted the inflammation and immune response of E. coioides to mesophilic A. salmonicida infection.
