本研究以温光敏小麦为试材,用TCA/丙酮和酚提取法提取小麦幼穗蛋白样品,进行了双向电泳优化分析,并对双向电泳过程中出现的问题进行了讨论。结果表明,用TCA/丙酮法提取小麦幼穗蛋白质其产率(浓度)高于酚提取法。SDS-PAGE电泳显示,用TCA/丙酮提取法提取的蛋白质能获得较清晰条带,分辨率较高,而酚提取法提取的蛋白质其条带模糊,分辨率低。对蛋白质纯化除盐可以提高分辨率,减少横竖纹,获得背景清晰的圆形蛋白点。通过ImageMasterTM 2D Platinum5.0软件分析凝胶图谱,结果显示纯化后可降低噪点,纯化后蛋白点数可从未纯化蛋白点数的216增加到583。显然,采用TCA/丙酮法可获得高浓度高质量的蛋白质,而进一步纯化、除盐离子可进一步获得背景清晰可高重复性的电泳图谱。在双向电泳实验过程中,观察到一些异常缺陷胶的出现,如双向电泳图谱中蛋白点扩散,蛋白聚集形成斑点串,没有点或点很少,出现纵纹横纹及图谱扭曲等影响图谱质量的严重问题,本研究对这些问题做了分析并提出了解决方案。     

Protein databases for compacted eight-cell and blastocyst-stage mouse embryos

High-resolution two-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide (2D-SDS) gel electrophoresis combined with computerized analysis of gel images was used to construct and analyze protein databases for two stages of preimplantation mouse embryogenesis, the compacted eight-cell stage and the fully expanded blastocyst stage. These stages were chosen for their ease in identification of multiple synchronous embryos. Synchronous cohorts of 30–50 embryos were labelled with L-[³⁵S]methionine for 2 hr. The embryos were then lysed in 30 μl hot SDS sample buffer, and the lysates were stored at ?80°C until the gels were run. Five replicates were run for eight-cell embryos, and four for blastocyst-stage embryos. The samples were processed for 2D gel electrophoresis and fluorography; multiple exposures were made. Gel images were analyzed using the PDQUEST system, and databases were constructed. Analysis of the databases for both developmental stages showed high reproducibility of protein spots in multiple gel images. Of 1,674 total spots in eight-cell embryo standards, >79% of spots had a percentage error (S.E.M./average) <50%, and >45% had a percentage error <30%. Similarly, of 1,653 total spots in blastocyst-stage embryo standards, 74% of spots had a percentage error <50%, and approximately 47% of spots had a percentage error <30%. Forty-three spots (approximately 3% of the total spots) were found to be detected only in the eight-cell stage, while 75 spots were detected solely in the blastocyst stage. Sixty-nine proteins showed a greater than threefold increase in isotope incorporation from the eight-cell to the blastocyst stage, with a percentage error <50% in both the eight-cell and the blastocyst stages. In contrast, 41 of the proteins showed a decrease during this period. Analysis of the protein databases described in this study has allowed us to document the overall quantitative changes in proteins from the compacted eight-cell stage to the blastocyst stage of mouse preimplantation development. These databases provide a valuable tool for further detailed quantitative analysis of specific proteins associated with developmental events. In addition they will permit analysis of the effects of environmental factors, such as growth factors, on early embryo development. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Protein Synthesis during Neural and Epidermal Differentiation in Cynops Embryo

Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis was used to analyze protein synthesis in relation to neural and epidermal differentiation in Cynops pyrrhogaster embryo. Various regions of embryos at different developmental stages, from late morula to early neurula stages, were excised, radiolabelled with ³⁵S-methionine, and the pattern of protein synthesis were compared. The following four types of protein spots were observed: (1) six proteins synthesized characteristically in the epidermal region of the embryo after gastrulation, (2) two proteins synthesized in both epidermal and endodermal regions, but not in other regions, after gastrulation, (3) a protein first detected at early blastula stage, of which expression was nearly constant in presumptive epidermis region but declined in the other regions, (4) the candidate for neural plate specific protein synthesized at a very high level in ectoderm explants treated with concanavalin A, a substance which evokes neural induction.     

Distribution of Cytosolic mRNAs Between Polysomal and Ribonucleoprotein Complex Fractions in Alfalfa Embryos : Stage-Specific Translational Repression of Storage Protein Synthesis during Early Somatic Embryo Development

Cell-free translational and northern blot analyses were used to examine the distribution of storage protein messages in the cytoplasmic polysomal and mRNA-protein complex (mRNP) fractions during development of somatic and zygotic embryos of alfalfa (Medicago sativa cv Rangelander RL-34). No special array of messages was identified in the mRNP fraction; however, some messages were selectively enriched in either the polysome or mRNP fractions, and their distribution pattern varied quantitatively during development of the embryos. During the earliest stages of somatic embryo development, storage protein messages already were present, but there was no detectable accumulation of the proteins. Selective enrichment of messages for the 11S, 7S, and 2S storage proteins occurred in the mRNP fraction during the globular, heart, and torpedo stages of somatic embryogenesis, but the distribution pattern was shifted toward the polysomal fraction at the beginning of cotyledon development. Thus, there was translational repression of storage protein synthesis at the early stage of somatic embryo development that was relieved later. During the cotyledonary development stages in the somatic and zygotic embryos, storage protein synthesis and distribution of the messages were similar in that these specific messages were predominantly in the polysomal fraction.     

Proteomic Analysis of Somatic Embryogenesis in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Cyclamen persicum</Emphasis> Mill

Cyclamen persicum Mill. is a widely grown ornamental species that is clonally propagated by somatic embryogenesis. To better understand the biology of somatic embryo development in C. persicum, detailed proteomic (two-dimensional gel electrophoresis) and mass spectrometric analyses of somatic embryos at globular, torpedo, and germinating stages of development, along with nonembryogenic callus and zygotic embryos, were conducted. Of ~460 proteins resolved in two-dimensional gels, 35 proteins were differentially expressed and could be reproducibly displayed across an isoelectric focusing range of 5 to 8. Among those proteins, five were constitutively expressed, 13 were upregulated, nine were downregulated, and eight were deemed as novel proteins during the torpedo stage. A total of 35 protein spots were analyzed by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS), and only four proteins were identified and these were available in public protein databases. The remaining protein spots were subsequently analyzed by MALDI-TOF-TOF-MS, and six proteins were then identified. These findings suggested that specific proteins are involved in the regulation of somatic embryogenesis.     

Localized synthesis of specific proteins during oogenesis and early embryogenesis inDrosophila melanogaster

Summary Protein synthesis in egg follicles and blastoderm embryos ofDrosophila melanogaster has been studied by means of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Up to 400 polypeptide spots have been resolved on autoradiographs. Stage 10 follicles (for stages see King, 1970) were labelled in vitro for 10 to 60 min with³⁵S-methionine and cut with tungsten needles into an anterior fragment containing the nurse cells and a posterior fragment containing the oocyte and follicle cells. The nurse cells were found to synthesize a complex pattern of proteins. At least two proteins were detected only in nurse cells but not in the oocyte even after a one hour labelling period. Nurse cells isolated from stages 9, 10 and 12 follicles were shown to synthesize stage specific patterns of proteins. Several proteins are synthesized in posterior fragments of stage 10 follicles but not in anterior fragments. These proteins are only found in follicle cells. No oocyte specific proteins have been detected. Striking differences between the protein patterns of anterior and posterior fragments persist until the nurse cells degenerate. In mature stage 14 follicles, labelled in vivo, no significant differences in the protein patterns of isolated anterior and posterior fragments could be detected; this may be due to technical limitations. At the blastoderm stage localized synthesis of specific proteins becomes detectable again. When blastoderm embryos, labelled in vivo, are cut with tungsten needles and the cells are isolated from anterior and posterior halves, differences become apparent. The pole cells located at the posterior pole are highly active in protein synthesis and contribute several specific proteins which are found exclusively in the posterior region of the embryo. In this study synthesis of specific proteins could only be demonstrated at those developmental stages which are characterized by the presence of different cell types within the egg chamber, while no differences were detected when stage 14 follicles were cut and anterior and posterior fragments analyzed separately. The differences in the pattern of protein synthesis by pole cells and blastoderm cells indicate that even the earliest stages of determination are reflected by marked changes at the biochemical level.

Protein expression during the embryonic development of a gastropod

Despite the potential use of gastropod embryos in basic and applied research, little is known about their protein expression. We examined, for the first time, changes in proteomic profile during embryonic development of Pomacea canaliculata from an embryo without a shell (stage II) to an embryo with a fully formed shell (stage III) to understand the roles that proteins play in critical developmental events, such as the formation of shell, operculum and heart, and the differentiation of head and foot. To analyze protein expression during development, we used 2‐DE to detect, MS to analyze, and de novo peptide sequencing followed by MS‐BLAST to identify the proteins. The de novo cross‐species protein identification method was adopted because of a lack of genomic and proteomic data in the whole class of Gastropoda. 2‐DE detected approximately 700 protein spots. Among the 125 spots that were abundant, 52% were identified, a marked improvement over the conventional direct MS‐BLAST method. These proteins function in perivitelline fluid utilization, shell formation, protein synthesis and folding, and cell cycle and cell fate determination, providing evidence to support that this embryonic period is a period of dynamic protein synthesis and metabolism. The data shall provide a basis for further studies of how gastropod embryos respond to natural and human‐induced changes in the environment.     

Comparative proteome analysis of the embryo proper and yolk sac membrane of day 11.5 cultured rat embryos

BACKGROUND: Proteomic analysis of cultured postimplantation rat embryos is expected to be useful for investigation into embryonic development. Here we analyzed protein expression in cultured postimplantation rat embryos by two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and mass-spectrometric protein identification. METHODS: Rat embryos were cultured from day 9.5 for 48 h or from day 10.5 for 24 h. Proteins of the embryo proper and yolk sac membrane were isolated by 2-DE and differentially analyzed with a 2-D analysis software. Selected protein spots in the 2-DE gels were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight tandem mass spectrometric analysis and protein database search. RESULTS: About 800 and 1,000 protein spots were matched through the replicate 2-DE gels each from one embryo in the embryo proper and yolk sac membrane, respectively, and virtually the same protein spots were observed irrespective to the length of culture period. From protein spots specific to the embryo proper (126 spots) and yolk sac membrane (304 spots), proteins involved in tissue-characteristic functions, such as morphogenesis and nutritional transfer, were identified: calponin, cellular retinoic acid binding protein, cofilin, myosin, and stathmin in the embryo proper, and Ash-m, dimerization cofactor of hepatocyte nuclear factor, ERM-binding phosphoprotein, cathepsin, and legumain in the yolk sac membrane. CONCLUSION: Proteomic analysis of cultured postimplantation rat embryos will be a new approach in developmental biology and toxicology at the protein level.
