Spatio-temporal changes in germination and radical elongation of barley seeds tracked by proteome analysis of dissected embryo, aleurone layer, and endosperm tissues

Germination of barley is accompanied by changes in water-soluble seed proteins. 2-DE was used to describe spatio-temporal proteome differences in dissected seed tissues associated with germination and the subsequent radicle elongation. Protein identification by MS enabled assignment of proteins and functions to the seed embryo, aleurone, and endosperm. Abundance in 2-DE patterns was monitored for 48 different proteins appearing in 79 gel spots at 8 time-points up to 72 h post imbibition (PI). In embryo, a beta-type proteasome subunit and a heat shock protein 70 fragment were among the earliest proteins to appear (at 4 h PI). Other early changes were observed that affected spots containing desiccation stress-associated late embryogenesis abundant and abscisic acid (ABA)-induced proteins. From 12 h PI proteins characteristic for desiccation stress disappeared rapidly, as did a putative embryonic protein and an ABA-induced protein, suggesting that these proteins are also involved in desiccation stress. Several redox-related proteins differed in spatio-temporal patterns at the end of germination and onset of radicle elongation. Notably, ascorbate peroxidase that was observed only in the embryo, increased in abundance at 36 h PI. The surprisingly early changes seen in the protein profiles already 4 h after imbibition indicate that germination is programmed during seed maturation.     

A proteomic analysis of rice seed germination as affected by high temperature and ABA treatment

Seed germination is a critical phase in the plant life cycle, but the specific events associated with seed germination are still not fully understood. In this study, we used two‐dimensional gel electrophoresis followed by mass spectrometry to investigate the changes in the proteome during imbibition of Oryza sativa seeds at optimal temperature with or without abscisic acid (ABA) and high temperature (germination thermoinhibition) to further identify and quantify key proteins required for seed germination. A total of 121 protein spots showed a significant change in abundance (1.5‐fold increase/decrease) during germination under all conditions. Among these proteins, we found seven proteins specifically associated with seed germination including glycosyl hydrolases family 38 protein, granule‐bound starch synthase 1, Os03g0842900 (putative steroleosin‐B), N‐carbamoylputrescine amidase, spermidine synthase 1, tubulin α‐1 chain and glutelin type‐A; and a total of 20 imbibition response proteins involved in energy metabolism, cell growth, cell defense and storage proteins. High temperature inhibited seed germination by decreasing the abundance of proteins involved in methionine metabolism, amino acid biosynthesis, energy metabolism, reserve degradation, protein folding and stress responses. ABA treatment inhibited germination and decreased the abundance of proteins associated with methionine metabolism, energy production and cell division. Our results show that changes in many biological processes including energy metabolism, protein synthesis and cell defense and rescue occurred as a result of all treatments, while enzymes involved in methionine metabolism and weakening of cell wall specifically accumulated when the seeds germinated at the optimal temperature.     

Protein Synthesis During Rehydration, Germination and Seedling Growth of Naturally and Precociously Matured Soybean Seeds (Glycine max)

Soybean seeds [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] synthesize de novo andaccumulate several non-storage, soluble polypeptides duringnatural and precocious seed maturation. These polypeptides havepreviously been coined ‘maturation polypeptides’.The objective of this study was to determine the fate of maturationpolypeptides in naturally and precociously matured soybean seedsduring rehydration, germination, and seedling growth. Developingsoybean seeds harvested 35 d after flowering (mid-development)were precociously matured through controlled dehydration, whereasnaturally matured soybean seeds were harvested directly fromthe plant. Seeds were rehydrated with water for various timesbetween 5 and 120 h. Total soluble proteins and proteins radio-labelledin vivo were extracted from the cotyledons and embryonic axesof precociously and naturally matured and rehydrated seed tissuesand analyzed by one-dimensional PAGE and fluorography. The resultsindicated that three of the maturation polypeptides (21, 31and 128 kDa) that had accumulated in the maturing seeds (maturationpolypeptides) continued to be synthesized during early stagesof seed rehydration and germination (5–30 h after imbibition).However, the progression from seed germination into seedlinggrowth (between 30 and 72 h after imbibition) was marked bythe cessation of synthesis of the maturation polypeptides followedby the hydrolysis of storage polypeptides that had been synthesizedand accumulated during seed development. This implied a drasticredirection in seed metabolism for the precociously maturedseeds as these seeds, if not matured early, would have continuedto synthesize storage protein reserves.

Proteomic analysis of rice (Oryza sativa) seeds during germination

Although seed germination is a major subject in plant physiological research, there is still a long way to go to elucidate the mechanism of seed germination. Recently, functional genomic strategies have been applied to study the germination of plant seeds. Here, we conducted a proteomic analysis of seed germination in rice (Oryza sativa indica cv. 9311) - a model monocot. Comparison of 2-DE maps showed that there were 148 proteins displayed differently in the germination process of rice seeds. Among the changed proteins, 63 were down-regulated, 69 were up-regulated (including 20 induced proteins). The down-regulated proteins were mainly storage proteins, such as globulin and glutelin, and proteins associated with seed maturation, such as "early embryogenesis protein" and "late embryogenesis abundant protein", and proteins related to desiccation, such as "abscisic acid-induced protein" and "cold-regulated protein". The degradation of storage proteins mainly happened at the late stage of germination phase II (48 h imbibition), while that of seed maturation and desiccation associated proteins occurred at the early stage of phase II (24 h imbibition). In addition to alpha-amylase, the up-regulated proteins were mainly those involved in glycolysis such as UDP-glucose dehydrogenase, fructokinase, phosphoglucomutase, and pyruvate decarboxylase. The results reflected the possible biochemical and physiological processes of germination of rice seeds.     

Protein Patterns, Characterized by Computer Image Analysis, of Lentil Embryo Axes Germinating Under Salt Stress

Following 16, 40 and 64 h exposure to 0.33 M NaCl given after 8 h water imbibition, lentil seeds showed a gradual decrease of germination upon their transfer to water. These salt related changes were accompanied by modifications in the protein patterns of embryo axes as revealed by two-dimensional electrophoresis separation and by the computer image analysis of protein spots. In comparison with 8 h water imbibed seeds, prominent proteins comprised between the 5.1 – 7.6 pH isoelectric point in the first dimension and 75 – 50 kDa molecular mass in the second dimension showed a significant increase in their abundance as salt exposure increased. On transfer to water to complete germination, the content of many of these proteins decreased at 24h in 2 – 3 cm length embryo axes in comparison with the corresponding embryo axes of seeds continuously imbibed in water for 24 h. Some groups of proteins ranging between 15.5 – 17.3 kDa, already present after 8 h water imbibition, were not detectable after 24 h but were expressed in seeds exposed to NaCl and transferred to water for 24 h. Up- and down-regulated proteins in lentil embryo axes, imbibed under non-lethal salt stress conditions, have been tentatively identified by comparison with the protein map of germinating seeds of the model plant Arabidopsis. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Proteomic analysis of arabidopsis seed germination and priming

To better understand seed germination, a complex developmental process, we developed a proteome analysis of the model plant Arabidopsis for which complete genome sequence is now available. Among about 1,300 total seed proteins resolved in two-dimensional gels, changes in the abundance (up- and down-regulation) of 74 proteins were observed during germination sensu stricto (i.e. prior to radicle emergence) and the radicle protrusion step. This approach was also used to analyze protein changes occurring during industrial seed pretreatments such as priming that accelerate seed germination and improve seedling uniformity. Several proteins were identified by matrix-assisted laser-desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry. Some of them had previously been shown to play a role during germination and/or priming in several plant species, a finding that underlines the usefulness of using Arabidopsis as a model system for molecular analysis of seed quality. Furthermore, the present study, carried out at the protein level, validates previous results obtained at the level of gene expression (e.g. from quantitation of differentially expressed mRNAs or analyses of promoter/reporter constructs). Finally, this approach revealed new proteins associated with the different phases of seed germination and priming. Some of them are involved either in the imbibition process of the seeds (such as an actin isoform or a WD-40 repeat protein) or in the seed dehydration process (e.g. cytosolic glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase). These facts highlight the power of proteomics to unravel specific features of complex developmental processes such as germination and to detect protein markers that can be used to characterize seed vigor of commercial seed lots and to develop and monitor priming treatments.     

Synthesis and degradation of the major allergens in developing and germinating soybean seed

Gly m Bd 28K,Gly m Bd 30K and Gly m Bd 60K are the major soybean(Glycine max(L.)Merr.)allergens limiting the consumption of a good protein source for sensitive individuals.However,little is known about their temporal-spatial expression during seed development and upon germination.The present data shows that soy allergens accumulated in both the embryonic axes and cotyledon,but expression patterns differed depending on the specific allergen.Allergens accumulated sooner and to a greater level in cotyledons than in embryonic axes.Gly m Bd 28 began at 14 d after flowering,7 to 14 d earlier than Gly m Bd 30K and Gly m Bd 60K.Comparatively,their degradation was faster and more profound in embryonic axes than in cotyledons.Gly m Bd 60K began to decline at 36 h after imbibition and remained detectable up to 108 h in cotyledons.In contrast,the Glym Bd 60K protein was reduced at 24 h,and eventually disappeared at 96 h.In cotyledons Gly m Bd 28K first declined at 24 h,then increased from 36 h to 48 h,followed by its large reduction at 72 h after seed germination.These findings provide useful information on soy allergen biosynthesis and will help move forward towards developing a hypoallergenic soybean for safer food.
