Previous study found that pedunsaponin A (PA) influenced the cytoskeleton of Pomacea canaliculata hemocytes, leading to depolarization and haemocyte destruction and eventually to snail death. In this study, we analysed the changes in protein expression by iTRAQ-mediated proteomics and identified 51 downregulated proteins. Among these, we focused on proteins related to cytoskeletal function and identified neural Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome isoform X1 (PcnWAS). The full-length PcnWAS gene contains 9791 bp and includes an open reading frame of 1401 bp that encodes 735 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 49.83 kD. PcnWAS exhibited a relatively distant genetic relationship with known species; the closest homologue is Biomphalaria glabrata (57%). RNA interference (RNAi) was adopted to verify the function of PcnWAS after screening the siRNA sequence with an efficiency of 97%. Interference with the gene expression of PcnWAS did not lead to snail death, but the depolarization level increased, which demonstrated that PcnWAS is an important depolarization-related protein. The results of PA treatment of snails subjected to RNAi proved that interfering with PcnWAS gene expression decreased the molluscicidal activity of PA toward P. canaliculata; snail mortality after RNAi was significantly lower (40%) than that in PA-treated snails without RNAi (54%), while the survival rate and depolarization level in haemocytes were not significant, indicating that PcnWAS is only one of the important target proteins of PA in P. canaliculata. This study lays the foundation for further exploration of the molecular mechanism by which PA kills this harmful snail.
