The activator protein-1 (AP-1) plays an important role in inducing the immune effector production in response to cellular stress and bacterial infection. In the present study, an AP-1 was identified from Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas (designed as CgAP-1) and its function was investigated in response against lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation. CgAP-1 was consisted of 290 amino acids including a Jun domain and a basic region leucine zipper (bZIP) domain. CgAP-1 shared 98.6% similarities with ChAP-1 from oyster C. hongkongensis, and assigned into the branch of invertebrates in the phylogenetic tree. The mRNA transcripts of CgAP-1 gene were detected in all tested tissues with highest expression level in hemocytes, especially in granulocytes. The mRNA expression level of CgAP-1 gene in hemocytes was significantly up-regulated (8.53-fold of that in PBS group, p < 0.01) at 6 h after LPS stimulation. CgAP-1 protein could be translocated into the nucleus of oyster hemocytes after LPS stimulation. The mRNA transcripts of interleukin17s (CgIL17-4 and CgIL17-5) in the hemocytes of CgAP-1-RNAi oysters decreased significantly at 24 h after LPS stimulation, which were 0.37-fold (p < 0.05) and 0.17-fold (p < 0.01) compared with that in EGFP-RNAi oysters, respectively. The results suggested that CgAP-1 played an important role in the immune response of oyster by regulating the expression of CgIL17s.
