The aim of this study was to characterize the PepT1 of pirarucu Arapaima gigas through genomic and proteomic tools. A transcriptomic and proteomic analysis was made from sections of the intestine, spleen, liver and kidney of fingerlings. The transcriptomic analysis allowed obtaining two consensus sequences of 357 and 459 bp. Both fragments showed a high degree of homology (78 and 80%), mainly with nucleotide sequences coding for the PepT1 of Scleropages formosus of the same Order as A. gigas. The proteomic analysis by double mass spectrometry MALDI TOF/TOF allowed to identify 15 peptide sequences of PepT1 in pirarucu. In conclusion, PepT1 was partially characterized in the intestine of pirarucu, which could be used for further studies on the evaluation of its expression.

El objetivo del estudio fue caracterizar el PepT1 del paiche Arapaima gigas mediante herramientas genómicas y proteómicas. Se realizó un análisis transcriptómico y proteómico a partir de secciones del intestino, bazo, hígado y riñón de alevines. El análisis transcriptómico permitió obtener dos secuencias consenso de 357 y 459 pb. Ambos fragmentos presentaron un alto grado de homología (78 y 80%), principalmente con secuencias de nucleótidos codificantes del PepT1 de Scleropages formosus del mismo Orden que el paiche. El análisis proteómico por espectrometría de doble masa MALDI TOF/TOF permitió identificar quince secuencias peptídicas del PepT1 en paiche. Como conclusión se logró caracterizar parcialmente el PepT1 en el intestino del paiche, las cuales podrán ser usadas para posteriores estudios sobre la evaluación de su expresión.

Probiotic bacteria in aquaculture represent a control alternative and prevention of pathogens, in addition, reduce the use of antibiotics. However, it is necessary to search for other groups of bacteria with similar or better properties, obtained even from the same source. The aim of the study was to identify molecularly lactic acid bacteria with probiotic properties isolated from the posterior intestine of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). The study was carried out from November 2017 to March 2018 evaluating the antagonistic, proteolytic, amylolytic, and antibiotic sensitivity activities, and antagonistic to the following pathogens: Aeromonas hydrophila, Aeromonas veronii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas putida and Plesiomonas shigelloides. It was identified by sequencing the 16S rRNA gene that Enterococcus faecium (IP5-2a) and Pedioc...
