Maize MeJA-responsive proteins identified by high-resolution 2-DE PAGE.

ABSTRACT: Exogenous methyl jasmonate (MeJA) is well-known to induce plant defense mechanisms effective against a wide variety of insect and microbial pests. High-resolution 2-DE gel electrophoresis was used to discover changes in the leaf proteome of maize exposed to MeJA. We sequenced 62 MeJA-responsive proteins by tandem mass spectroscopy, and deposited the mass spectra and identities in the EMBL-EBI PRIDE repository under reference number PXD001793. An analysis and discussion of the identified proteins in relation to maize defense against Asian corn borer is published by Zhang et al. (2015) [1].

Digging for Stress-Responsive Cell Wall Proteins for Developing Stress-Resistant Maize.

Project description:As a vital component of plant cell walls, proteins play important roles in stress response by modifying the structure of cell walls and involving in the wall integrity signaling pathway. Recently, we have critically reviewed the predictors, databases, and cross-referencing of the subcellular locations of possible cell wall proteins (CWPs) in plants (Briefings in Bioinformatics 2018;19:1130-1140). Here, we briefly introduce strategies for isolating CWPs during proteomic analysis. Taking maize (Zea mays) as an example, we retrieved 1873 probable maize CWPs recorded in the UniProt KnowledgeBase (UniProtKB). After curation, 863 maize CWPs were identified and classified into 59 kinds of protein families. By referring to gene ontology (GO) annotations and gene differential expression in the Expression Atlas, we have highlighted the potential of CWPs acting in the front line of defense against biotic and abiotic stresses. Moreover, the analysis results of cis-acting elements revealed the responsiveness of the genes encoding CWPs toward phytohormones and various stresses. We suggest that the stress-responsive CWPs could be promising candidates for applications in developing varieties of stress-resistant maize.

High-resolution genetic mapping of maize pan-genome sequence anchors.

Project description:In addition to single-nucleotide polymorphisms, structural variation is abundant in many plant genomes. The structural variation across a species can be represented by a 'pan-genome', which is essential to fully understand the genetic control of phenotypes. However, the pan-genome's complexity hinders its accurate assembly via sequence alignment. Here we demonstrate an approach to facilitate pan-genome construction in maize. By performing 18 trillion association tests we map 26 million tags generated by reduced representation sequencing of 14,129 maize inbred lines. Using machine-learning models we select 4.4 million accurately mapped tags as sequence anchors, 1.1 million of which are presence/absence variations. Structural variations exhibit enriched association with phenotypic traits, indicating that it is a significant source of adaptive variation in maize. The ability to efficiently map ultrahigh-density pan-genome sequence anchors enables fine characterization of structural variation and will advance both genetic research and breeding in many crops.

Comparative transcriptome analysis of MeJA-responsive AP2/ERF transcription factors involved in notoginsenosides biosynthesis.

Project description:Differential transcriptome analysis is an effective method for gene selection of triterpene saponin biosynthetic pathways. MeJA-induced differential transcriptome of Panax notoginseng has not been analyzed yet. In this study, comparative transcriptome analysis of P. notoginseng roots and methyl jasmonate (MeJA)-induced roots revealed 83,532 assembled unigenes and 21,947 differentially expressed unigenes. Sixteen AP2/ERF transcription factors, which were significantly induced by MeJA treatment in the root of P. notoginseng, were selected for further analysis. Real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and co-expression network analysis of the 16 AP2/ERF transcription factors showed that PnERF2 and PnERF3 had significant correlation with dammarenediol II synthase gene (DS) and squalene epoxidase gene (SE), which are key genes in notoginsenoside biosynthesis, in different tissues and MeJA-induced roots. A phylogenetic tree was conducted to analyze the 16 candidate AP2/ERF transcription factors and other 38 transcription factors. The phylogenetic tree analysis showed PnERF2, AtERF3, AtERF7, TcERF12 and other seven transcriptional factors are in same branch, while PnERF3 had close evolutionary relationships with AtDREB1A, GhERF38 and TcAP2. The results of comparative transcriptomes and AP2/ERF transcriptional factors analysis laid a solid foundation for further investigations of disease resistance and notoginsenoside biosynthesis in P. notoginseng.

Comparative Transcriptome Analysis of MeJA Responsive Enzymes Involved in Phillyrin Biosynthesis of <i>Forsythia suspensa</i>.

Project description:Forsythia suspensa (Thunb.) has been widely used in traditional medicines in Asia. According to the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia, phillyrin is the main active ingredient in F. suspensa, which is effective in clearing heat, reducing swelling, and dispersing nodules. F. suspensa leaf is a non-toxic substance and it can be used to make a health tea. Here, we combine elicitors and transcriptomics to investigate the inducible biosynthesis of the phillyrin from the F. suspensa. After the fruits and leaves of F. suspensa were treated with different concentrations of methyl jasmonate (MeJA), the content of phillyrin in the fruits reached a peak at 200 µM MeJA for 12 h, but which was decreased in leaves. To analyze the differences in key enzyme genes involved in the phillyrin biosynthesis, we sequenced the transcriptome of F. suspensa leaves and fruits treated with 200 µM MeJA for 12 h. We hypothesized that nine genes related to coniferin synthesis including: F. suspensa&nbsp;UDP-glycosyltransferase (FsUGT); F. suspensa&nbsp;4-coumarate coenzyme CoA ligase (Fs4CL); and F. suspensa&nbsp;Caffeoyl-CoA O-methyltransferase (FsCCoAOMT) etc. The qRT-PCR analysis of genes related to phillyrin biosynthesis was consistent with RNA-seq analysis. We also investigated the dynamic changes of genes in F. suspensa leaves and fruits at different time points after 200 µM MeJA treatment, which laid the foundation for further study of the molecular mechanisms regulating the biosynthesis of phillyrin.

High-resolution structure prediction of ?-barrel membrane proteins.

Project description:[Formula: see text]-Barrel membrane proteins ([Formula: see text]MPs) play important roles, but knowledge of their structures is limited. We have developed a method to predict their 3D structures. We predict strand registers and construct transmembrane (TM) domains of [Formula: see text]MPs accurately, including proteins for which no prediction has been attempted before. Our method also accurately predicts structures from protein families with a limited number of sequences and proteins with novel folds. An average main-chain rmsd of 3.48 Å is achieved between predicted and experimentally resolved structures of TM domains, which is a significant improvement ([Formula: see text]3 Å) over a recent study. For [Formula: see text]MPs with NMR structures, the deviation between predictions and experimentally solved structures is similar to the difference among the NMR structures, indicating excellent prediction accuracy. Moreover, we can now accurately model the extended [Formula: see text]-barrels and loops in non-TM domains, increasing the overall coverage of structure prediction by [Formula: see text]%. Our method is general and can be applied to genome-wide structural prediction of [Formula: see text]MPs.

Identification of Salt Stress-Responsive Proteins in Maize (Zea may) Seedlings Using iTRAQ-Based Proteomic Technique.

Project description:BackgroundSoil salinity is a major abiotic stress that limits plant growth and yield worldwide.ObjectiveTo better understand the mechanism of salt stress adaptation in maize (Zea may), proteomic analysis of maize responses to salt stress were analyzed in seedling.Materials and methodsTaking maize seedlings untreated and treated with NaCl for 24 h as material, isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) were used to analyze the protein expression profile of maize seedlings after salt stress.ResultsThe result showed that 270 differentially expression proteins (DEPs) were identiﬁed in maize seedlings after salt stress. The majority proteins had functions related to translation, ribosomal structure and biogenesis (15%), posttranslational modification, protein turnover, chaperones (14%) and others metabolism. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis showed that the EF-Tu, peroxiredoxin, FoF1-type ATP synthase, glutamate dehydrogenase, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase, Acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase and nucleoside diphosphate kinase genes were up-regulated in the adaptation of maize to salt stress.ConclusionsThe coped with salt stress of maize seedlings might be included nitrogen and glutamate (Glu) metabolism and energy homeostasis, nucleotide transport and metabolism, soluble sugar, fatty acid and nucleoside triphosphates synthesis. Moreover, the enhancement of plant to scavenge ROS, such as peroxiredoxin, might play significant roles in the adaptation of maize to salt stress.Taken together, these proteins might have important roles in defense mechanisms against salt stress in maize.We hope that this study provides valuable information for the further utilization and study on the molecular mechanisms of defense mechanisms in maize.

A high-throughput de novo sequencing approach for shotgun proteomics using high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry.

Project description:BACKGROUND: High-resolution tandem mass spectra can now be readily acquired with hybrid instruments, such as LTQ-Orbitrap and LTQ-FT, in high-throughput shotgun proteomics workflows. The improved spectral quality enables more accurate de novo sequencing for identification of post-translational modifications and amino acid polymorphisms. RESULTS: In this study, a new de novo sequencing algorithm, called Vonode, has been developed specifically for analysis of such high-resolution tandem mass spectra. To fully exploit the high mass accuracy of these spectra, a unique scoring system is proposed to evaluate sequence tags based primarily on mass accuracy information of fragment ions. Consensus sequence tags were inferred for 11,422 spectra with an average peptide length of 5.5 residues from a total of 40,297 input spectra acquired in a 24-hour proteomics measurement of Rhodopseudomonas palustris. The accuracy of inferred consensus sequence tags was 84%. According to our comparison, the performance of Vonode was shown to be superior to the PepNovo v2.0 algorithm, in terms of the number of de novo sequenced spectra and the sequencing accuracy. CONCLUSIONS: Here, we improved de novo sequencing performance by developing a new algorithm specifically for high-resolution tandem mass spectral data. The Vonode algorithm is freely available for download at http://compbio.ornl.gov/Vonode.

High resolution map of Caenorhabditis elegans gap junction proteins.

Project description:The innexin family of gap junction proteins has 25 members in Caenorhabditis elegans. Here, we describe the first high-resolution expression map of all members through analysis of live worms transformed with green fluorescent protein under the control of entire promoter regions. Our analyses show that innexins have dynamic expression patterns throughout development and are found in virtually all cell types and tissues. Complex tissues, such as the pharynx, intestine, gonad, as well as scaffolding tissues and guidepost cells express a variety of innexins in overlapping or complementary patterns, suggesting they may form heteromeric and heterotypic channels. Innexin expression occurs in several types of cells that are not known to form gap junctions as well as in a pair of migrating cells, suggesting they may have hemichannel function. Therefore, innexins likely play roles in almost all body functions, including embryonic development, cell fate determination, oogenesis, egg laying, pharyngeal pumping, excretion, and locomotion.

High-resolution sequence-function mapping of full-length proteins.

Project description:Comprehensive sequence-function mapping involves detailing the fitness contribution of every possible single mutation to a gene by comparing the abundance of each library variant before and after selection for the phenotype of interest. Deep sequencing of library DNA allows frequency reconstruction for tens of thousands of variants in a single experiment, yet short read lengths of current sequencers makes it challenging to probe genes encoding full-length proteins. Here we extend the scope of sequence-function maps to entire protein sequences with a modular, universal sequence tiling method. We demonstrate the approach with both growth-based selections and FACS screening, offer parameters and best practices that simplify design of experiments, and present analytical solutions to normalize data across independent selections. Using this protocol, sequence-function maps covering full sequences can be obtained in four to six weeks. Best practices introduced in this manuscript are fully compatible with, and complementary to, other recently published sequence-function mapping protocols.
