Description
Huifang Luo and six co-authors present a 2026 study of an enzyme that may protect grass carp from a harmful bacterium. The bacterium causes swelling, tissue death, ulcers, and blood poisoning in the fish, with heavy losses for farms. It talks to its neighbors with chemical signals to time its attacks.
The enzyme, called YtnP, jams those signals. The team injected infected carp with the bacterium, the enzyme, or both, with 75 fish per group. Fish that got the enzyme survived at a much higher rate. The team also tracked immune gene activity and the mix of gut microbes to see how the enzyme helped.
