Chrysanthemum is one of the most important ornamental flowers in the world, and temperature has a significant influence on its field production. In the present study, differentially expressed proteins were investigated in the leaves of Dendranthema grandiflorum ‘Jinba’ under high temperature stress using label-free quantitative proteomics techniques. The expressed proteins were comparatively identified and analyzed. A total of 1,463 heat-related, differentially expressed proteins were successfully identified by Liquid Chromatography-tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and 1,463 heat-related, differentially expressed proteins were successfully identified by mass spectrometry after a high temperature treatment. Among these, 701 proteins were upregulated and 762 proteins were downregulated. The in-depth bioinformatics analysis of these differentially expressed proteins revealed that these were involved in energy metabolism pathways, protein metabolism, and heat shock. In the present study, the investigators determined the changes in the levels of some proteins, and their expression at the protein and molecular levels in chrysanthemum to help reveal the mechanism of heat resistance in chrysanthemum. Furthermore, the present study elucidated some of the proteins correlated to heat resistance in chrysanthemum, and their expression changes at the protein and molecular levels to help reveal the mechanism of heat resistance in this flower species. These results provide a theoretical basis for the selection of new heat resistant varieties of chrysanthemum in the field. 相似文献

In recent years, the application of proteomic approaches as a tool for global expression analysis and protein identification
has been highly efficient in the field of plant research. A solution culture experiment involving two nitrogen treatments,
0.14 mM NH4NO3 (low nitrogen (N)) and 1.07 mM NH4NO3 (control), was conducted to investigate the response of rice root to low N stress. Root system architecture changed markedly
under low N stress, with more lateral roots occurring on the lower part of adventitious roots and longer lateral roots on
the upper part, compared to the control. A proteomic approach was employed to further study the rice responses to low N stress.
Proteins extracted from roots were profiled by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and differentially expressed proteins
were analyzed by mass spectrometry. Twelve protein spots were successfully identified by mass spectrometry, 11 of which had
known functions. Of these, four were involved with the tricarboxylic acid cycle, two with adenylate metabolism, two with phenylpropanoid
metabolism, and two with protein degradation. These differentially expressed proteins play an important role in the responsive
mechanisms of rice root to low N stress, and uncovering how the rice proteins respond to low N stress could contribute to
improving the nitrogen use efficiency. 相似文献

Soybean rust caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi is a destructive foliar disease in nearly all soybean‐producing countries. Understanding the host responses at the molecular level is certainly essential for effective control of the disease. To identify proteins involved in the resistance to soybean rust, differential proteomic analysis was conducted in soybean leaves of a resistant genotype after P. pachyrhizi infection. A total of 41 protein spots exhibiting a fold change >1.5 between the non‐inoculated and P. pachyrhizi‐inoculated soybean leaves at 12 and 24 h postinoculation (hpi) were unambiguously identified and functionally grouped into seven categories. Twenty proteins were up‐regulated and four proteins were down‐regulated at 12 hpi, whereas 18 proteins were up‐regulated and eight proteins were down‐regulated at 24 hpi. Generally, proteins involved in photosynthesis were down‐regulated, whereas proteins associated with disease and defense response, protein folding and assembly, carbohydrate metabolism and energy production were up‐regulated. Results are discussed in terms of the functional implications of the proteins identified, with special emphasis on their putative roles in defense. Abundance changes of these proteins, together with their putative functions reveal a comprehensive picture of the host response in rust‐resistant soybean leaves and provide a useful platform for better understanding of the molecular basis of soybean rust resistance. 相似文献

Salt stress is a major abiotic stress that limits crop productivity in many regions of the world. A comparative proteomic approach to identify salt stress-responsive proteins and to understand the molecular mechanisms was carried out in the woody halophyte Kandelia candel. Four-leaf-old K. candel seedlings were exposed to 150 (control), 300, 450, and 600 mM NaCl for 3 days. Proteins extracted from the leaves of K. candel seedlings were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE). More than 900 protein spots were detected on each gel, and 53 differentially expressed protein spots were located with at least two-fold differences in abundance on 2-DE maps, of which 48 were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-TOF/MS). The results showed that K. candel could withstand up to 450 mM NaCl stress by up-regulating proteins that are mainly involved in photosynthesis, respiration and energy metabolism, Na+ compartmentalization, protein folding and assembly, and signal transduction. Physiological data, including superoxide dismutase (SOD) and dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR) activities, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and superoxide anion radicals (O2
−) contents, as well as Na+ content and K+/Na+ ratios all correlated well with our proteomic results. This study provides new global insights into woody halophyte salt stress responses. Identification of differentially expressed proteins promotes better understanding of the molecular basis for salt stress reduction in K. candel. 相似文献

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), as a potential gaseous messenger molecule, has been suggested to play important roles in a wide range of physiological processes in plants. The aim of present study was to investigate which set of proteins is involved in H2S-regulated metabolism or signaling pathways. Spinacia oleracea seedlings were treated with 100 µM NaHS, a donor of H2S. Changes in protein expression profiles were analyzed by 2-D gel electrophoresis coupled with MALDI-TOF MS. Over 1000 protein spots were reproducibly resolved, of which the abundance of 92 spots was changed by at least 2-fold (sixty-five were up-regulated, whereas 27 were down-regulated). These proteins were functionally divided into 9 groups, including energy production and photosynthesis, cell rescue, development and cell defense, substance metabolism, protein synthesis and folding, cellular signal transduction. Further, we found that these proteins were mainly localized in cell wall, plasma membrane, chloroplast, mitochondria, nucleus, peroxisome and cytosol. Our results demonstrate that H2S is involved in various cellular and physiological activities and has a distinct influence on photosynthesis, cell defense and cellular signal transduction in S. oleracea leaves. These findings provide new insights into proteomic responses in plants under physiological levels of H2S. 相似文献

Proteomic changes induced by Cd have been described in plants in different scenarios. However, there has been no proteomic study on Cd toxicity, including any low Cd-accumulating species. Here, we investigate the response of a low Cd-accumulating species, Solanum torvum, to Cd toxicity at the root proteomic level using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DGE). The root 2-DGE map consisted of at least 927 reproducible protein spots, of which 45 were classified as differentially expressed proteins based on three replicated separations. MALDI-TOF MS analysis identified 19 of these spots, and MALDI-TOF/TOF MS analysis identified 8 of the spots. The eight proteins identified were two S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) synthetases, actin, an ATP synthase subunit, two tubulin proteins, alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), and 14-3-3 protein 4. These proteins are involved in phytohormone synthesis, defense responses, energy metabolism, and cytoskeleton construction. Thus, our proteomic analysis revealed that Cd stress promotes an increase in the abundance of proteins involved in antioxidant defenses and anti-stress protection. 相似文献

Classical activation of macrophages induces a wide range of signaling and vesicle trafficking events to produce a more aggressive cellular phenotype. The microtubule (MT) cytoskeleton is crucial for the regulation of immune responses. In the current study, we used a large scale proteomics approach to analyze the change in protein composition of the MT-associated protein (MAP) network by macrophage stimulation with the inflammatory cytokine interferon-γ and the endotoxin lipopolysaccharide. Overall the analysis identified 409 proteins that bound directly or indirectly to MTs. Of these, 52 were up-regulated 2-fold or greater and 42 were down-regulated 2-fold or greater after interferon-γ/lipopolysaccharide stimulation. Bioinformatics analysis based on publicly available binary protein interaction data produced a putative interaction network of MAPs in activated macrophages. We confirmed the up-regulation of several MAPs by immunoblotting and immunofluorescence analysis. More detailed analysis of one up-regulated protein revealed a role for HSP90β in stabilization of the MT cytoskeleton during macrophage activation.Microtubules (MTs)1 are major structural components of the cytoskeleton that are intricately involved in cell morphology, motility, division, and intracellular organization and transport. The diverse roles of MTs are dependent on the polymer having the capacity to be both dynamic and static in nature. Individual MTs alternate between growing and shrinking by the rapid attachment and detachment of tubulin subunits at their ends (1, 2). Thus, MTs can continually reorganize and undergo cycles of growing, pausing, and shortening. A number of mechanisms exist to regulate this dynamic equilibrium and involve association of proteins with the MT lattice. MT-associated proteins (MAPs), such as MAP4 and tau, stabilize MTs by binding to the wall thus inhibiting MT disassembly (3, 4). Recently MT plus (+) end-binding proteins have been implicated in stabilizing MTs by associating with cortical proteins to tether the MT end to peripheral target sites (5–7). Stabilized MT subsets are biochemically distinct and acquire posttranslational modifications that can be used to differentiate them from dynamic subsets. For example, posttranslational modifications such as glutamylation (8), detyrosination (8, 9), and acetylation (10) occur on MTs that exhibit increased stability. Stabilized MTs have been implicated in MT transport by allowing increased binding of MT motors (11, 12). Numerous other MAPs have been shown to regulate MT form and function including control of MT nucleation and elongation, MT linkage to and movement of organelles, and modulation of MT growth to allow scaffolding of signal transduction events (13).The extensive MT network provides a large surface area to serve as a platform for the binding of a large number of proteins that is likely heavily influenced by local cellular events and cell type. Traditionally the term MAP referred to proteins that bind directly to tubulin within the MT polymer, and a lot of recent debate and controversy have surrounded the definition of a MAP (14, 15). In this and other reports the definition of MAPs is considered to also include proteins that indirectly or transiently interact with MTs, co-localize with MTs, or influence MT growth dynamics in some way (16). The advent of proteomics has allowed cytoskeleton researchers to resolve the spectrum of MAPs. To date, the MT proteome has been resolved by MS analysis in developmentally important animal and plant models including Xenopus laevis egg extracts (17), Drosophila melanogaster embryos (18), Artemia franciscana embryos (19), Arabidopsis suspension cells (20), and complex mammalian tissues such as rat brain (21). The MT proteome has also been described for specialized MT structures including mitotic spindles (22–24), centrosomes (25, 26), and cilia (27, 28).Macrophages are key regulators of the immune system connecting innate and specific immune responses. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), an outer membrane component of Gram-negative bacteria, is a potent activator of monocytes and macrophages. LPS triggers the abundant secretion of many cytokines from macrophages including IL-1 (29), IL-6, (30), and tumor necrosis factor-α (31), which together contributes to the pathophysiology of septic shock. IFN-γ is a proinflammatory cytokine produced by the host in response to intracellular pathogens. IFN-γ binds to IFN-γ receptors on macrophages, and IFN-γ signaling induces the production and/or release of cytokines, like IL-1 or tumor necrosis factor-α, which enhance LPS-mediated effects (32). Thus, the synergy between LPS and inflammatory cytokines such as IFN-γ represents an important regulatory mechanism by which the host tackles a significant, ongoing infection before it activates potent effector responses (33). It has been demonstrated that LPS may cause changes in monocyte cytoskeleton and directly influence assembly of isolated MTs (34). Recently we observed that classical activation of murine resident peritoneal or RAW264.7 macrophages with a combination of IFN-γ and LPS induces an increase in stabilized cytoplasmic MTs (5). A significant effort has been made to unravel the importance of stable MTs in cellular processes over the past few years. With respect to macrophage function, stable MTs could potentially function as tracks for vesicle secretion of cytokines and matrix metalloproteinases necessary to effect the enhanced inflammatory response observed in classically activated macrophages. We recently demonstrated that stable MTs are important for cell spreading as well as the binding of large particles in activated macrophages (5). The stabilization of macrophage interphase MTs is uniquely rapid, thus serving as an ideal model for studying MAPs involved in MT modulation in mammalian cells.The focus of the present study was to identify the MT-associated proteins involved in altering and stabilizing MT structures and also to resolve the spectrum of proteins within the MT proteome of a mammalian cell. To achieve this goal, we used a proteomics approach involving a MAP purification technique based on MT co-sedimentation (35) followed by off-line fractionation and identification of MAPs using LC-MS/MS. Information provided by mass spectrometry analysis allowed us to analyze the changes in MAP abundance during activation of macrophages by IFN-γ/LPS. These studies also provided candidate proteins for selective molecular intervention for chronic inflammatory disorders. 相似文献

Proteins associated with membranes from purified rat liver autophagosomes were separated by two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis (zoom gels, pI 4-7 and 6-9), silver-stained and identified by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Among >1,500 detectable protein spots, 58 (derived from 39 different known proteins) were at least twofold (and significantly) enriched in autophagosomal membranes relative to cytoplasmic membranes. All of these membrane-associated proteins were also present in the cytosol, many of them being truncated enzyme variants that would be expected to serve a binding rather than an enzymatic function. 相似文献

Comparative two-dimensional electrophoresis showed six proteins, which were significantly produced in the root of salt-tolerant barley. These proteins were identified as stress/defense-related proteins that do not scavenge reactive oxygen species directly, suggesting that salt-tolerant barley develops not only an antioxidative system, but also physical and biochemical changes to cope with salt stress. 相似文献

Glycation induced protein aggregation has been implicated in the development of diabetic complications and neurodegenerative diseases. These aggregates are known to be resistant to proteolytic digestion. Here we report the identification of protease resistant proteins from the streptozotocin induced diabetic rat kidney, which included enzymes in glucose metabolism and stress response proteins. These protease resistant proteins were characterized to be advanced glycation end products modified and ubiquitinated by immunological and mass spectrometry analysis. Further, diabetic rat kidney exhibited significantly impaired proteasomal activity. The functional analysis of identified physiologically important enzymes showed that their activity was reduced in diabetic condition. Loss of functional activity of these proteins was compensated by enhanced gene expression. Aggregation prone regions were predicted by in silico analysis and compared with advanced glycation end products modification sites. These findings suggested that the accumulation of protein aggregates is an inevitable consequence of impaired proteasomal activity and protease resistance due to advanced glycation end products modification.One of the foremost causes of diabetic complications is formation of sugar-derived substances called advanced glycation end products (AGEs),1 which affect target cell through altered protein structure- function, matrix-matrix/matrix-cell interaction, and by activation of receptor for AGE (RAGE) signaling pathway (1). Although the accumulation of AGEs is a slow process in healthy individuals, their formation is markedly accelerated in diabetes because of hyperglycemia (2). AGE-modified proteins are thermostable and resistant to denaturation. The stability of proteins is believed to be because of additional negative charge (highly oxidized state) brought by AGE modification of proteins, which may contribute to protease resistance (3). Glycation induced protease resistance has been studied in collagen (4–6) and amyloid (7). In addition to glycation, impairment in the proteasomal function may facilitate accumulation of protease resistant protein aggregates in diabetes. Proteasome mediated protein degradation is a central quality control mechanism in the cell. Activity of proteasome is affected during aging (8) and physiological disorders like diabetes (9) resulting in accumulation of ubiquitinated protein aggregates. In muscle extract of diabetic rats, accumulation of toxic glycated proteins was observed because of decreased proteasomal activity (6–9). This proteolytic system is of particular importance in protecting cells against adverse conditions, such as heat shock, glycation, or oxidative stress. However, when the generation of damaged proteins exceeds the capacity of the cell to degrade them, they are progressively accumulated leading to cytotoxicity (10). Severely aggregated, cross-linked, and oxidized proteins are poor substrates for degradation and inhibit the proteasomal activity (11).The kidney is one of the main organs affected in diabetes caused by accumulation of AGEs. Proteins of extracellular matrix, kidney, as well as proteins from circulation, get AGE modified and trapped in the kidney (12). Both intracellular and extracellular AGEs have been observed in the diabetic kidney. Extracellular AGEs interact with the RAGE leading to apoptosis and inflammation (13), whereas intracellular AGEs are formed because of various dicarbonyls. Eventually, both types of the AGEs contribute to kidney damage (14). Furthermore, methyl glyoxal, a highly reactive dicarbonyl covalently modifies the 20S proteasome, decreasing its activity in the diabetic kidney (15). Together AGE modification and decreased proteasomal function may be responsible for the accumulation of protease resistant proteins (PRPs) in the diabetic kidney. In our previous study, we have reported the presence of AGE modified proteins in the kidney of the streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rat (12). The current work is inspired by a DARTS (drug affinity responsive target stability) approach, wherein the drug targets are relatively less susceptible to protease action on drug binding (16). A similar approach was adopted here to identify protease resistant proteins from the diabetic kidney. These proteins were characterized to be AGE modified and ubiquitinated by Western blot analysis and mass spectrometry. Functional characterization and expression analysis of some of the identified proteins was performed to gain insight into the consequences of these modifications in diabetes. Further, aggregation prone regions in these proteins were predicted by the in silico approach. These findings shed light on the role of identified PRPs in diabetic complications. 相似文献

Glycation of proteins leading to formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) has been considered as one of the important
causes of diabetic nephropathy. Therefore, in this study, glycated proteins were detected by anti-AGE antibodies from kidney
of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat showing nephropathic symptoms, by using two dimensional electrophoresis and western
blot analysis. These glycated proteins were identified and characterized by using combination of peptide mass finger printing
and tandem mass spectrometric approaches. Glycated proteins identified included proteins from metabolic pathways, oxidative
stress, cell signaling, and transport. Several of the proteins modified by glycation were involved in glucose metabolism.
The extent of glycation was higher in diabetes compared to control, in the glycated proteins that were common to both control
and diabetic kidney. Two dimensional electrophoresis proteins profiling of glycated proteins suggest that four of the glycated
proteins were significantly up regulated in diabetes. 相似文献

Rapid Osmotic Adjustment in Detached Wheat Leaves 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Osmotic adjustment is induced in detached wheat leaves by rapiddrying to a relative water content below 0·65, followedby re-saturation. Quantitatively, the response to this treatmentis comparable to the maximum of adjustment obtained with pottedplants at the same developmental stage. Low temperatures duringdrying and re-saturation of the leaves reduce the adjustmentresponse. We conclude that drought stress serves as a triggeronly, while the metabolic events lowering the osmotic potentialare favoured by high or intermediate water contents.

Despite extensive study, progress in elucidation of biological functions of amyloids and their role in pathology is largely restrained due to the lack of universal and reliable biochemical methods for their discovery. All biochemical methods developed so far allowed only identification of glutamine/asparagine-rich amyloid-forming proteins or proteins comprising amyloids that form large deposits. In this article we present a proteomic approach which may enable identification of a broad range of amyloid-forming proteins independently of specific features of their sequences or levels of expression. This approach is based on the isolation of protein fractions enriched with amyloid aggregates via sedimentation by ultracentrifugation in the presence of strong ionic detergents, such as sarkosyl or SDS. Sedimented proteins are then separated either by 2D difference gel electrophoresis or by SDS-PAGE, if they are insoluble in the buffer used for 2D difference gel electrophoresis, after which they are identified by mass-spectrometry. We validated this approach by detection of known yeast prions and mammalian proteins with established capacity for amyloid formation and also revealed yeast proteins forming detergent-insoluble aggregates in the presence of human huntingtin with expanded polyglutamine domain. Notably, with one exception, all these proteins contained glutamine/asparagine-rich stretches suggesting that their aggregates arose due to polymerization cross-seeding by human huntingtin. Importantly, though the approach was developed in a yeast model, it can easily be applied to any organism thus representing an efficient and universal tool for screening for amyloid proteins. 相似文献
