A Survey of the Impact of Deyolking on Biological Processes Covered by Shotgun Proteomic Analyses of Zebrafish Embryos.

ABSTRACT: Deyolking, the removal of the most abundant protein from the zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryo, is a common technique for in-depth exploration of proteome-level changes in vivo due to various environmental stressors or pharmacological impacts during embryonic stage of development. However, the effect of this procedure on the remaining proteome has not been fully studied. Here, we report a label-free shotgun proteomics survey on proteome coverage and biological processes that are enriched and depleted as a result of deyolking. Enriched proteins are involved in cellular energetics and development pathways, specifically implicating enrichment related to mitochondrial function. Although few proteins were removed completely by deyolking, depleted molecular pathways were associated with calcium signaling and signaling events implicating immune system response.

Project description:The identification of circulating proteins associated with relapse in pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) may help develop predictive biomarkers. We previously identified a set of predictive biomarkers by difference gel electrophoresis. Here we used label-free quantitative liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) on plasma collected at diagnosis from 12 children (age 12-16 years) with nodular sclerosis HL, including six in whom the disease relapsed within 5 years of treatment in the LH2004 trial. Plasma proteins were pooled in groups of three, separately for non-relapsing and relapsing HL, and differentially abundant proteins between the two disease states were identified by LC-MS/MS in an explorative and validation design. Proteins with a fold change in abundance >1.2 or ?0.8 were considered "differentially abundant". LC-MS/MS identified 60 and 32 proteins that were more abundant in non-relapsing and relapsing HL plasma, respectively, in the explorative phase; these numbers were 39 and 34 in the validation phase. In both analyses, 11 proteins were more abundant in non-relapsing HL (e.g., angiotensinogen, serum paraoxonase/arylesterase 1, transthyretin), including two previously identified by difference gel electrophoresis (antithrombin III and ?-1-antitrypsin); seven proteins were more abundant in relapsing HL (e.g., fibronectin and thrombospondin-1), including two previously identified proteins (fibrinogen ? and ? chains). The differentially abundant proteins participated in numerous biological processes, which were manually grouped into 10 biological classes and 11 biological regulatory subclasses. The biological class Lipid metabolism, and its regulatory subclass, included angiotensinogen and serum paraoxonase/arylesterase 1 (more abundant in non-relapsing HL). The biological classes Immune system and Cell and extracellular matrix architecture included fibronectin and thrombospondin-1 (more abundant in relapsing HL). These findings deepen our understanding of the molecular scenario underlying responses to therapy and provide new evidence about these proteins as possible biomarkers of relapse in pediatric HL.

Project description:Somatic embryogenesis is an important and wonderful biotechnological tool used to develop whole plant from a single or a group of somatic cells. The differentiated somatic cells become totipotent stem cells by drastic reprogramming of a wide range of cellular activities, leading to the acquisition of embryogenic competence. After acquiring competence, the cells pass through globular, heart, torpedo and cotyledonary stages of embryo; however, all advanced embryos do not convert into full plant, produce adventive embryos or callus instead, thus reverses the programming. This is a big limitation in propagation of many plants. Understanding and unraveling the proteins at this 'embryo to plantlet' transition stage will help to get more numbers of plants. Thus, our study was aimed at an identification of differentially abundant proteins between two important advanced stages, i.e. cotyledonary-(T1) and maturation stage (T2) of somatic embryos in Catharanthus roseus. A total of 2949 and 3030 proteins were identified in cotyledonary and maturation stage, respectively. Of these, 1129 proteins were common to both. Several proteins were found to be differentially accumulated in two different embryo stages in which over 60 proteins were most accumulated during somatic embryo maturation time. More chlorophyll accumulation was noted at this time under the influence of gibberellic acid (GA3). Proteins like Mg-protoporphyrin IX chelatase, chlorophyll a-b-binding protein, photosystem I iron-sulfur center, photosystem II Psb, photosystem II subunit P-1, P-II domain-containing protein, RuBisCO large chain, RuBisCO small chain, RuBisCO activase, RuBisCO large subunit-binding proteins were synthesized. Some of the identified proteins are linked to chlorophyll synthesis, carbohydrate metabolism and stress. The identified proteins are categorized into different groups on the basis of their cellular location, role and other metabolic processes. Biochemical attributes like protein, sugar, proline, antioxidant enzyme (APX, SOD and CAT) activities were high in T2 as compared to T1. The proteins like peroxidases, pathogenesis-related proteins, the late-embryogenesis abundant proteins, argonaute, germin and others have been discussed in C. roseus somatic embryo maturation process.
