Testis-specific serine/threonine kinase 1-like (TSSK1-like), which plays important roles in late-phase spermatogenesis and male fertility, was characterized in Pacific abalone Haliotis discus hannai, an important commercial marine gastropod. Further, its expression patterns were assessed in diploid and induced triploid males showing differential degrees of testis maturation. Abalone TSSK1-like shared conserved structural features with mammalian TSSK1s and other potential metazoan orthologs, especially regarding the catalytic STKc domain. Phylogenetically, abalone TSSK1-like displayed a genetic affiliation with its molluscan TSSK1-like orthologs and human TSSK1. Additionally, abalone TSSK1-like gene showed a tetrapartite exon-intron organization, unlike the intronless structure of most amniotic tetrapodian TSSK1s. Molecular phylogenetic analysis in the metazoan lineage suggested a possible revision in the origin of the earliest ancestral TSSK1. Further, abalone TSSK1-like showed testis-predominant expression, which was significantly influenced by both age and seasonal reproductive cycles. Comparative expression analyses between diploid and triploid abalone males suggested that robust TSSK1-like expression occurred primarily at the post-meiotic stage. Additionally, RT-PCR assay indicates that mature abalone sperms retain TSSK1-like transcripts after release. Taken together, this study provides useful insights for further studies to assess male reproduction and sterility and/or partial fertility of induced male triploidy in abalone species.
