Fat greenling (Hexagrammos otakii) is an important commercial marine fish species cultured in northeast Asia, but its available gene sequences are limited. Vibrio harveyi is a causative agent of vibriosis in fat greenling and also causes severe losses to the aquaculture industry in China. In order to obtain more high-quality transcript information and investigate the early immune response of fat greenling against V. harveyi, the fish were artificially infected with V. harveyi, and five sampling points were set within 48 h. Iso-Seq combined with RNA-Seq were applied in the comprehensive transcriptome analysis of V. harveyi-infected fat greenling. Total 42,225 consensus isoforms were successfully extracted from the result of Iso-Seq, and more than 19,000 ORFs were predicted. In addition, total three modules were identified by WGCNA which significantly positive correlated to the infection time, and the KEGG analysis showed that the immune-related genes in these modules mainly enriched in TLR signaling pathway, NF-κB signaling pathway and Endocytosis. The activation of inflammation and endocytosis was the most significant characteristics of fat greenling immune response during the early infection. Based on the WGCNA, a series of high–degree nodes in the networks were identified as hub genes. The protein structures of cold-inducible RNA-binding protein (CIRBP), poly [ADP-ribose] polymerase 1 (PARP1) and protein arginine N-methyl transferase 1 (PRMT1) were subsequently found to be highly conserved in vertebrate, and the gene expression pattern of CIRBP, PARP1, PRMT1 and a part of TLR/NF-κB pathway-related genes indicated that these proteins might have similar biological functions in regulation of inflammatory response in teleost fish. The results of this study provided the first systematical full-length transcriptome profile of fat greenling and characterized its immune responses in early infection of V. harvey, which will serve as the foundation for further exploring the molecular mechanism of immune defense against bacterial infection in fat greenling.
