The recombinant baculovirus has been widely used as an efficient tool to mediate gene delivery into mammalian cells but has barely been used in fish cells. In the present study, we constructed a recombinant baculovirus containing the dual-promoter cytomegalovirus (CMV) and white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) immediate-early gene 1 (ie1) (WSSV ie1), followed by a puromycin⁻green fluorescent protein (Puro-GFP, pf ) or puromycin⁻red fluorescent protein (Puro-RFP, pr ) cassette, which simultaneously allowed for easy observation, rapid titer determination, drug selection, and exogenous gene expression. This recombinant baculovirus was successfully transduced into fish cells, including Mylopharyngodon piceus bladder (MPB), fin (MPF), and kidney (MPK); Oryzias latipes spermatogonia (SG3); and Danio rerio embryonic fibroblast (ZF4) cells. Stable transgenic cell lines were generated after drug selection, which was further verified by Western blot. A cell monoclonal formation assay proved the stable heredity of transgenic MPB cells. In addition, a recombinant baculovirus containing a pr cassette and four transcription factors for induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) was constructed and transduced into ZF4 cells, and these exogenous genes were simultaneously delivered and transcribed efficiently in drug-selected ZF4 cells, proving the practicability of this modified recombinant baculovirus system. We also proved that the WSSV ie1 promoter had robust activity in fish cells in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, this modified recombinant baculovirus can be a favorable transgenic tool to obtain transient or stable transgenic fish cells.
