Quantitative iTRAQ-based proteomic analysis of rice grains to assess high night temperature stress.

ABSTRACT: Rice yield and quality are adversely affected by increasing global surface temperature, and are strongly attributed to high night temperature (HNT) than high daytime temperature. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the heat-tolerant characteristics of rice remains unclear. In the present study, we compared the proteomes of heat-tolerant and -sensitive lines of rice at early milky stage using an iTRAQ method. We have identified 38 differentially expressed proteins between the two lines, of which 32 proteins have been functionally annotated in NCBI and/or the UniProt database. These proteins were then classified into seven functional subgroups, which include signal transduction, transcript regulation, oxidation, defense response, transport, energy metabolism, and biosynthesis. Further analysis indicated that HNT stress could disrupt the redox equilibrium of plant cells, which in turn triggers the calcium-dependent protein kinase and COP9 signalosome, thereby regulating downstream genes/proteins that are involved in the HNT response. The candidate proteins may provide genetic resources for the improvement of heat-tolerant characteristics in rice, and the proposed model for signal transduction and transcriptional regulation may facilitate in the elucidation of the molecular mechanism underlying the response to HNT stress in rice.

Project description:BackgroundGlobal climate models predict an increase in global mean temperature and a higher frequency of intense heat spikes during this century. Cereals such as rice (Oryza sativa L.) are more susceptible to heat stress, mainly during the gametogenesis and flowering stages. During periods of high temperatures, grain filling often causes serious damage to the grain quality of rice and, therefore, yield losses. While the genes encoding enzymes involved in carbohydrate metabolism of chalky grains have been established, a significant knowledge gap exists in the proteomic and glycomic responses to warm temperatures in situ. Here, we studied the translucent and opaque characters of high temperature stressed chalky grains of 2009 and 2010 (ripening temperatures: 24.4 and 28.0 °C, respectively).ResultsAppearance of chalky grains of both years showed some resemblance, and the high-temperature stress of 2010 remarkably extended the chalking of grain. Scanning electron microscopic observation showed that round-shaped starch granules with numerous small pits were loosely packed in the opaque part of the chalky grains. Proteomic analyzes of rice chalky grains revealed deregulations in the expression of multiple proteins implicated in diverse metabolic and physiological functions, such as protein synthesis, redox homeostasis, lipid metabolism, and starch biosynthesis and degradation. The glycomic profiling has shown slight differences in chain-length distributions of starches in the grains of 2009-to-2010. However, no significant changes were observed in the chain-length distributions between the translucent and opaque parts of perfect and chalky grains in both years. The glucose and soluble starch contents in opaque parts were increased by the high-temperature stress of 2010, though those in perfect grains were not different regardless of the environmental changes of 2009-to-2010.ConclusionTogether with previous findings on the increased expression of α-amylases in the endosperm, these results suggested that unusual starch degradation rather than starch synthesis is involved in occurring of chalky grains of rice under the high-temperature stress during grain filling period.
