Cold stress has adverse effects on plant growth and development. Plants respond and acclimate to cold stress through various biochemical and physiological processes, thereby acquiring stress tolerance. To better understand the basis for tolerance, we carried out a proteomic study in the model moss, Physcomitrella patens, characterizing gametophore proteins with 2‐DE and mass spectroscopy. Following exposure to 0°C for up to 3 days, out of the more than 1000 protein spots reproducibly resolved, only 45 changed in abundance by at least 1.5‐fold. Of these, 35 were identified by tryptic digestion and mass spectroscopy. Photosynthetic proteins decreased, whereas many catabolic proteins increased. In addition, cold stress up‐regulated a variety of signaling, cytoskeleton, and defense proteins and few proteins in these classes were down‐regulated. Up‐regulated proteins include the 14‐3‐3‐like protein, actin, HSP70s, lipoxygenases, and cytochrome P450 proteins. These results point to pathways that are important for the mechanism of cold stress response in P. patens and by extension to the entire plant kingdom.  相似文献

Pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a chronic disease. Currently, there are no sufficiently validated biomarkers for early diagnosis of TB infection. In this study, a panel of potential serum biomarkers was identified between patients with pulmonary TB and healthy controls by using iTRAQ‐coupled 2D LC‐MS/MS technique. Among 100 differentially expressed proteins screened, 45 proteins were upregulated (>1.25‐fold at p < 0.05) and 55 proteins were downregulated (<0.8‐fold at p < 0.05) in the TB serum. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that the differentially expressed proteins were related to the response to stimulus, the metabolic and immune system processes. The significantly differential expression of apolipoprotein CII (APOCII), CD5 antigen‐like (CD5L), hyaluronan‐binding protein 2 (HABP2), and retinol‐binding protein 4 (RBP4) was further confirmed using immunoblotting and ELISA analysis. By forward stepwise multivariate regression analysis, a panel of serum biomarkers including APOCII, CD5L, and RBP4 was obtained to form the disease diagnostic model. The receiver operation characteristic curve of the diagnostic model was 0.98 (sensitivity = 93.42%, specificity = 92.86%). In conclusion, APOCII, CD5L, HABP2, and RBP4 may be potential protein biomarkers of pulmonary TB. Our research provides useful data for early diagnosis of TB.  相似文献

The essential trace element selenium (Se) is controversially discussed concerning its role in health and disease. Its various physiological functions are largely mediated by Se incorporation in the catalytic center of selenoproteins. In order to gain insights into the impact of Se deficiency and of supplementation with different Se compounds (selenite, selenate, selenomethionine) at defined concentrations (recommended, 150 μg/kg diet; excessive, 750 μg/kg diet) in murine colon tissues, a 20‐week feeding experiment was performed followed by analysis of the protein expression pattern of colon tissue specimens by 2D‐DIGE and MALDI‐TOF MS. Using this approach, 24 protein spots were identified to be significantly regulated by the different Se compounds. These included the antioxidant enzyme peroxiredoxin‐5 (PRDX5), proteins with binding capabilities, such as cofilin‐1 (COF1), calmodulin, and annexin A2 (ANXA2), and proteins involved in catalytic processes, such as 6‐phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGD). Furthermore, the Se compounds demonstrated a differential impact on the expression of the identified proteins. Selected target structures were validated by qPCR and Western blot which mainly confirmed the proteomic profiling data. Thus, novel Se‐regulated proteins in colon tissues have been identified, which expand our understanding of the physiologic role of Se in colon tissue.  相似文献

To study the soybean plasma membrane proteome under osmotic stress, two methods were used: a gel‐based and a LC MS/MS‐based proteomics method. Two‐day‐old seedlings were subjected to 10% PEG for 2 days. Plasma membranes were purified from seedlings using a two‐phase partitioning method and their purity was verified by measuring ATPase activity. Using the gel‐based proteomics, four and eight protein spots were identified as up‐ and downregulated, respectively, whereas in the nanoLC MS/MS approach, 11 and 75 proteins were identified as up‐ and downregulated, respectively, under PEG treatment. Out of osmotic stress responsive proteins, most of the transporter proteins and all proteins with high number of transmembrane helices as well as low‐abundance proteins could be identified by the LC MS/MS‐based method. Three homologues of plasma membrane H+‐ATPase, which are transporter proteins involved in ion efflux, were upregulated under osmotic stress. Gene expression of this protein was increased after 12 h of stress exposure. Among the identified proteins, seven proteins were mutual in two proteomics techniques, in which calnexin was the highly upregulated protein. Accumulation of calnexin in plasma membrane was confirmed by immunoblot analysis. These results suggest that under hyperosmotic conditions, calnexin accumulates in the plasma membrane and ion efflux accelerates by upregulation of plasma membrane H+‐ATPase protein.  相似文献

Changes in leaf soluble proteome were explored in 3‐month‐old plants of metallicolous (M) and nonmetallicolous (NM) Agrostis capillaris L. populations exposed to increasing Cu concentrations (1–50 μM) to investigate molecular mechanisms underlying plant responses to Cu excess and tolerance of M plants. Plants were cultivated on perlite (CuSO4 spiked‐nutrient solution). Soluble proteins, extracted by the trichloroacetic acid/acetone procedure, were separated with 2‐DE (linear 4–7 pH gradient). Analysis of CCB‐stained gels (PDQuest) reproducibly detected 214 spots, and 64 proteins differentially expressed were identified using LC‐MS/MS. In both populations, Cu excess impacted both light‐dependent (OEE, cytochrome b6‐f complex, and chlorophyll a‐b binding protein), and ‐independent (RuBisCO) photosynthesis reactions, more intensively in NM leaves (ferredoxin‐NADP reductase and metalloprotease FTSH2). In both populations, upregulation of isocitrate dehydrogenase and cysteine/methionine synthases respectively suggested increased isocitrate oxidation and enhanced need for S‐containing amino‐acids, likely for chelation and detoxification. In NM leaves, an increasing need for energetic compounds was indicated by the stimulation of ATPases, glycolysis, pentose phosphate pathway, and Calvin cycle enzymes; impacts on protein metabolism and oxidative stress increase were respectively suggested by the rise of chaperones and redox enzymes. Overexpression of a HSP70 may be pivotal for M Cu tolerance by protecting protein metabolism.

In the past decade, encouraging results have been obtained in extraction and analysis of proteins from formalin‐fixed, paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) tissues. However, 2‐D PAGE protein maps with satisfactory proteomic information and comparability to fresh tissues have never been described to date. In the present study, we report 2‐D PAGE separation and MS identification of full‐length proteins extracted from FFPE skeletal muscle tissue. The 2‐D protein profiles obtained from FFPE tissues could be matched to those achieved from frozen tissues replicates. Up to 250 spots were clearly detected in 2‐D maps of proteins from FFPE tissue following standard mass‐compatible silver staining. Protein spots from both FFPE and frozen tissue 2‐D gels were excised, subjected to in situ hydrolysis, and identified by MS analysis. Matched spots produced matched protein identifications. Moreover, 2‐D protein maps from FFPE tissues were successfully subjected to Western immunoblotting, producing comparable results to fresh‐frozen tissues. In conclusion, this study provides evidence that, when adequately extracted, full‐length proteins from FFPE tissues might be suitable to 2‐D PAGE‐MS analysis, allowing differential proteomic studies on the vast existing archives of healthy and pathological‐fixed tissues.  相似文献

A tryptic digest generated from Xenopus laevis fertilized embryos was fractionated by RPLC. One set of 30 fractions was analyzed by 100‐min CZE‐ESI‐MS/MS separations (50 h total instrument time), and a second set of 15 fractions was analyzed by 3‐h UPLC‐ESI‐MS/MS separations (45 h total instrument time). CZE‐MS/MS produced 70% as many protein IDs (4134 versus 5787) and 60% as many peptide IDs (22 535 versus 36 848) as UPLC‐MS/MS with similar instrument time (50 h versus 45 h) but with 50 times smaller total consumed sample amount (1.5 μg versus 75 μg). Surprisingly, CZE generated peaks that were 25% more intense than UPLC for peptides that were identified by both techniques, despite the 50‐fold lower loading amount; this high sensitivity reflects the efficient ionization produced by the electrokinetically pumped nanospray interface used in CZE. This report is the first comparison of CZE‐MS/MS and UPLC‐MS/MS for large‐scale eukaryotic proteomic analysis. The numbers of protein and peptide identifications produced by CZE‐ESI‐MS/MS approach those produced by UPLC‐MS/MS, but with nearly two orders of magnitude lower sample amounts.  相似文献

The effects of di(2‐ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) on proteins secreted by HepG2 cells were studied using a proteomic approach. HepG2 cells were exposed to various concentrations of DEHP (0, 2.5, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, and 250 μM) for 24 or 48 h. 3‐(4,5‐dimethylthiazol‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and comet assays were then conducted to determine the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of DEHP, respectively. The MTT assay showed that 10 μM DEHP was the maximum concentration that did not cause cell death. In addition, the DNA damage in HepG2 cells exposed to DEHP was found to increase in a dose‐ and time‐dependent fashion. Proteomic analysis using two different pI ranges (4–7 and 6–9) and large size 2‐DE revealed the presence of 2776 protein spots. A total of 35 (19 up‐ and 16 down‐regulated) proteins were identified as biomarkers of DEHP by ESI‐MS/MS. Several differentiated protein groups were also found. Proteins involved in apoptosis, transportation, signaling, energy metabolism, and cell structure and motility were found to be up‐ or down‐regulated. Among these, the identities of cystatin C, Rho GDP inhibitor, retinol binding protein 4, gelsolin, DEK protein, Raf kinase inhibitory protein, triose phosphate isomerase, cofilin‐1, and haptoglobin‐related protein were confirmed by Western blot assay. Therefore, these proteins could be used as potential biomarkers of DEHP and human disease associated with DEHP.  相似文献

Yellow lupin (Lupinus luteus L.) is a legume crop containing a large amount of protein in its seeds. In this study, we constructed a seed‐protein catalog to provide a foundation for further study of the seeds. A total of 736 proteins were identified in 341 2DE spots by nano‐LC‐MS/MS. Eight storage proteins were found as multiple spots in the 2DE gels. The 736 proteins correspond to 152 unique proteins as shown by UniRef50 clustering. Sixty‐seven of the 152 proteins were associated with KEGG‐defined pathways. Of the remaining proteins, 57 were classified according to a GO term. The functions of the remaining 28 proteins have yet to be determined. This is the first yellow lupin seed–protein catalog, and it contains considerably more data than previously reported for white lupin (L. albus L.).  相似文献

A number of reports have recently emerged with focus on extraction of proteins from formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded (FFPE) tissues for MS analysis; however, reproducibility and robustness as compared to flash frozen controls is generally overlooked. The goal of this study was to identify and validate a practical and highly robust approach for the proteomics analysis of FFPE tissues. FFPE and matched frozen pancreatic tissues obtained from mice (n = 8) were analyzed using 1D‐nanoLC‐MS(MS)2 following work up with commercially available kits. The chosen approach for FFPE tissues was found to be highly comparable to that of frozen. In addition, the total number of unique peptides identified between the two groups was highly similar, with 958 identified for FFPE and 1070 identified for frozen, with protein identifications that corresponded by approximately 80%. This approach was then applied to archived human FFPE pancreatic cancer specimens (n = 11) as compared to uninvolved tissues (n = 8), where 47 potential pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma markers were identified as significantly increased, of which 28 were previously reported. Further, these proteins share strongly overlapping pathway associations to pancreatic cancer that include estrogen receptor α. Together, these data support the validation of an approach for the proteomic analysis of FFPE tissues that is straightforward and highly robust, which can also be effectively applied toward translational studies of disease.  相似文献

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is one of the most common functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract. It is characterized by abdominal pain and changes in bowel habits. Various studies have investigated the pathophysiologic processes underlying IBS, but the mechanism remains poorly understood. In the present study, we established an IBS model and identified differentially expressed proteins in colon tissue of IBS rats compared with healthy controls by 2‐D gel electrophoresis, MALDI‐TOF‐MS, and Western blot analysis. Our results showed that 13 of the 1396 protein spots on 2‐D gel were differently expressed between the IBS and control groups. Ontological analysis of these proteins revealed primary roles in catalytic activity (protein disulfide‐isomerase A3, glyoxalase I, cathepsin S, α‐enolase), structural support (cytokeratin 8), antioxidant activity (peroxiredoxin‐6), protein binding (transgelin, serpin peptidase inhibitor B5), and signal transduction (40S ribosomal protein SA). Protein disulfide‐isomerase A3 and cytokeratin 8 overexpression in IBS were confirmed by Western blot. The findings indicate that multiple proteins are involved in IBS processes that influence intestinal tract immunity, inflammation, and nerve regulation. Our study provides useful candidate genes and proteins for further investigation.  相似文献

Warfarin is a commonly prescribed oral anti‐coagulant with narrow therapeutic index. It interferes with vitamin K cycle to achieve anti‐coagulating effects. Warfarin has two enantiomers, S(?) and R(+) and undergoes stereoselective metabolism, with the S(?) enantiomer being more effective. We reported that the intracellular protein profile in HepG2 cells incubated with S(?) and R(+) warfarin, using iTRAQ‐coupled 2‐D LC‐MS/MS. In samples incubated with S(?) and R(+) warfarin alone, the multi‐task protein Protein SET showed significant elevation in cells incubated with S(?) warfarin but not in those incubated with R(+) warfarin. In cells incubated with individual enantiomers of warfarin in the presence of vitamin K, protein disulfide isomerase A3 which is known as a glucose‐regulated protein, in cells incubated with S(?) warfarin was found to be down‐regulated compared to those incubated with R(+) warfarin. In addition, Protein DJ‐1 and 14‐3‐3 Proteinσ were down‐regulated in cells incubated with either S(?) or R(+) warfarin regardless of the presence of vitamin K. Our results indicated that Protein DJ‐1 may act as an enzyme for expression of essential enzymes in vitamin K cycle. Taken together, our findings provided molecular evidence on a comprehensive protein profile on warfarin–cell interaction, which may shed new lights on future improvement of warfarin therapy.  相似文献

Male accessory gland (MAG) secretory proteins affect female reproductive physiology and behaviour when they are delivered to the female at the time of mating along with sperm. In our study, proteomic approaches were used to identify MAG proteins of Leucinodes orbonalis, a monophagous and destructive pest of brinjal. A set of 117 and 186 MAG spots were observed in virgin and mated males, respectively, using two‐dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D‐GE). Among the identified spots, 49 are unique to the virgin, whereas 118 are unique to mated MAGs, with 68 spots found to be common. The differentially expressed MAG proteins, 14 are up‐regulated, and 16 are down‐regulated in virgin after mating. We used matrix‐assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI)–mass spectrometry (MS) to identify the 13 unique proteins in the MAG of virgin L. orbonalis and analysed the data of the Swiss‐Prot database using the Mascot search engine. The proteins were identified as proteolysis regulators, lipid transporters, olfactory proteins, metabolism‐related proteins, DNA‐binding proteins, and hexamerins. This is the first report on the gel‐based protein analysis of L. orbonalis MAGs.  相似文献

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) affects an estimated 20% of adults worldwide and has been associated with electrical and structural abnormalities of the atria, although the molecular mechanisms are not well understood. Here, we used two‐dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D PAGE) coupled with nanoliquid chromatography‐tandem mass spectrometry (nanoLC‐MS/MS) to investigate the proteins that are dysregulated in the atria from severe and moderate apnea when compared to control. We found enzymes involved in the glycolysis, beta‐oxidation, electron transport chain and Krebs cycle to be down‐regulated. The data suggested that the dysregulated proteins may play a role in atrial pathology developing via chronic obstructive apnea and hypoxia. Our results are consistent with our previous 1D‐PAGE and nanoLC‐MS/MS study (Channaveerappa et al, J Cell Mol Med. 2017), where we found that some aerobic and anaerobic glycolytic and Krebs cycle enzymes were down‐regulated, suggesting that apnea may be a result of paucity of oxygen and production of ATP and reducing equivalents (NADH). The 2D‐PAGE study not only complements our current study, but also advances our understanding of the OSA. The complete mass spectrometry data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD011181.  相似文献

Herbivorous insects can cause severe cellular changes to plant foliage following infestations, depending on feeding behaviour. Here, a proteomic study was conducted to investigate the influence of green peach aphid (Myzus persicae Sulzer) as a polyphagous pest on the defence response of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh after aphid colony establishment on the host plant (3 days). Analysis of about 574 protein spots on 2‐DE gels revealed 31 differentially expressed protein spots. Twenty out of these 31 differential proteins were selected for analysis by mass spectrometry. In 12 of the 20 analysed spots, we identified seven and nine proteins using MALDI‐TOF‐MS and LC‐ESI‐MS/MS, respectively. Of the analysed spots, 25% contain two proteins. Different metabolic pathways were modulated in Arabidopsis leaves according to aphid feeding: most corresponded to carbohydrate, amino acid and energy metabolism, photosynthesis, defence response and translation. This paper has established a survey of early alterations induced in the proteome of Arabidopsis by M. persicae aphids. It provides valuable insights into the complex responses of plants to biological stress, particularly for herbivorous insects with sucking feeding behaviour.  相似文献

The marine mollusk Aplysia californica (Aplysia) is a powerful model for learning and memory due to its minimalistic nervous system. Key proteins, identified to be regulated by the neurotransmitter serotonin in Aplysia, have been successfully translated to mammalian models of learning and memory. Based upon a recently published large‐scale analysis of Aplysia proteomic data, the current study investigated the regulation of protein levels 24 and 48 h after treatment with serotonin in Aplysia ganglia using a 2‐D gel electrophoresis approach. Protein spots were quantified and protein‐level changes of selected proteins were verified by Western blotting. Among those were Rab GDP dissociation inhibitor alpha (RabGDIα), synaptotagmin‐1 and deleted in azoospermia‐associated protein (DAZAP‐1) in cerebral ganglia, calreticulin, RabGDIα, DAZAP‐1, heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein F (hnRNPF), RACK‐1 and actin‐depolymerizing factor (ADF) in pleural ganglia and DAZAP‐1, hnRNPF and ADF in pedal ganglia. Protein identity of the majority of spots was confirmed by a gel‐based mass spectrometrical method (FT‐MS). Taken together, protein‐level changes induced by the learning‐related neurotransmitter serotonin in Aplysia ganglia are described and a role for the abovementioned proteins in synaptic plasticity is proposed.  相似文献

Biological membranes define cells and cellular compartments and are essential in regulating bidirectional flow of chemicals and signals. Characterizing their protein content therefore is required to determine their function, nevertheless, the comprehensive determination of membrane‐embedded sub‐proteomes remains challenging. Here, we experimentally characterized the inner membrane proteome (IMP) of the model organism E. coli BL21(DE3). We took advantage of the recent extensive re‐annotation of the theoretical E. coli IMP regarding the sub‐cellular localization of all its proteins. Using surface proteolysis of IMVs with variable chemical treatments followed by nanoLC‐MS/MS analysis, we experimentally identified ~45% of the expressed IMP in wild type E. coli BL21(DE3) with 242 proteins reported here for the first time. Using modified label‐free approaches we quantified 220 IM proteins. Finally, we compared protein levels between wild type cells and those over‐synthesizing the membrane‐embedded translocation channel SecYEG proteins. We propose that this proteomics pipeline will be generally applicable to the determination of IMP from other bacteria.  相似文献

7,8‐Dihydroxy‐9,10‐epoxy‐7,8,9,10‐tetrahydrobenzo[a]pyrene (BPDE) exposure induces adduct formation and oxidative damage on DNA, and consequently triggers complicated stress responses, including such responses as signaling pathway activation, cell cycle arrest, DNA repair, translesion DNA synthesis and mutagenesis. In the present study, 2‐DE and MALDI‐TOF MS were employed to analyze the differential extracellular protein patterns of human amniotic epithelial cells (FL cells) after exposure to 5 nM BPDE and control. As a result, one protein spot that appeared in the culture medium of BPDE treatment group was successfully identified as 14‐3‐3ζ, and three up‐regulated protein spots were identified as annexin A3, annexin V and hydroxypyruvate isomerase homolog. Among them, 14‐3‐3ζ was further detected in some pleural fluid specimens also. These results demonstrate that BPDE exposure can induce alterations of extracellular protein profiles of exposed cells, which may be served as a starting point for searching candidate biomarkers for benzo[a]pyrene exposure.  相似文献
