Lymphocystis disease virus (LCDV) infection may induce a variety of host gene expression changes associated with disease development; however, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying host-virus interactions is limited. In this study, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was employed to investigate differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the gill of the flounder ( Paralichthys olivaceus ) at one week post LCDV infection. Transcriptome sequencing of the gill with and without LCDV infection was performed using the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. In total, RNA-seq analysis generated 193,225,170 clean reads aligned with 106,293 unigenes. Among them, 1812 genes were up-regulated and 1626 genes were down-regulated after LCDV infection. The DEGs related to cellular process and metabolism occupied the dominant position involved in the LCDV infection. A further function analysis demonstrated that the genes related to inflammation, the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway, cell proliferation, apoptosis, tumor formation, and anti-viral defense showed a differential expression. Several DEGs including β actin , toll-like receptors, cytokine-related genes, antiviral related genes, and apoptosis related genes were involved in LCDV entry and immune response. In addition, RNA-seq data was validated by quantitative real-time PCR. For the first time, the comprehensive gene expression study provided valuable insights into the host-pathogen interaction between flounder and LCDV.
