Mapping proteome of seminal plasma and spermatozoa of Indian Indigenous Malnad Gidda (Bos indicus) cattle

ABSTRACT: Malnad Gidda is one among the 43 registered cattle breeds of India with unique traits and spread over Western Ghats and coastal regions of Karnataka state in India. Selection of highly elite fertile bulls for the breeding purpose is a critical control point in animal breeding programmes. Therefore, to characterize the semen proteome and to understand the semen biology of this breed, a comprehensive proteomic analysis of spermatozoa and seminal plasma has been carried out by employing SCX and bRPLC fractionation strategies in a mass-spectrometry platform. The semen samples from three Malnad Gidda bulls maintained at Southern Regional Station of ICAR-NDRI under standard managemental conditions were used in the study. The proteomic characterisation of semen from Malnad Gidda breed resulted in the identification of 5, 84,520 PSMs, from 24,467 peptides from 2,815 proteins in spermatozoa and identification of 2, 77,583 PSMs from 12,047 peptides, which resulted in 1,974 proteins from seminal plasma. Out of 2,815 proteins in spermatozoa and 1,974 proteins from seminal plasma, 969 proteins were common to both seminal plasma and spermatozoa. The biological processes and cellular localization of spermatozoa proteins were studied using DAVID tool and were further enriched the identical GO terms using REVIGO online tool. The functional enrichment analysis of identified proteins indicated their roles in the biological processes like sperm motility, spermatid development, spermatogenesis, and so on. GO studies showed the commonalities and differences in the molecular functions of the proteins exclusively identified in spermatozoa, seminal plasma and common proteins. This is the first proteomic investigation conducted on the semen samples of an Indian indigenous breed; therefore, we believe that our preliminary data should significantly advance our understanding of semen proteome of Indian cattle.

Malnad Gidda is a dwarf indigenous cattle breed of India, which is known for its uniqueness of calving every year under a low input grazing system of rearing. Bulls of Malnad Gidda are known to be highly fertile even in stress conditions. However, the proteomic profiling of semen of this breed has not been investigated so far, which might provide a platform for a better understanding of its semen quality and male fertility. Therefore, we made an effort to characterize and quantify the proteome o ...[more]

Project description:Male factors account for approximately 40% of all infertility. Conventional semen analysis focus on seminal physicochemical property and spermatozoa morphology. They yield no information concerning the functional competence of the spermatozoa(Petrunkina et al., 2007). Owning to the essential role of proteins in the reproductive process, comprehensive and systematic identification of proteome is critical to gain new insights into spermatogenesis and infertility. Recent advances in mass spectrometry have allowed the identification of hundreds to thousands of protein in spermatozoa(Oliva et al., 2008; Amaral et al., 2014; Codina et al., 2015). In major domestic mammalian species, global spermatozoa proteomic profiles have been described in rodents(Baker et al., 2008a; Baker et al., 2008b) and bovine(Peddinti et al., 2008). Meanwhile, lacking of new protein synthesis in spermatozoa supports the current view that the regulation of sperm maturation is controlled by exogenous proteins(O'Rand et al., 2011) (e.g., during epididymal transit). Among the seminal plasma proteins, The human seminal plasma has been comprehensively described (Pilch and Mann, 2006; Batruch et al., 2011; Milardi et al., 2012; Milardi et al., 2013; Sharma et al., 2013). In domestic animal species, some studies performing a systematic analysis on using high throughput proteomics have been performed(Kelly et al., 2006; Moura et al., 2007; Souza et al., 2012; Druart et al., 2013; Soleilhavoup et al., 2014). Buffalos (Bubalus bubalis) are adapted to hot–humid tropical climatic conditions, but have low reproductive efficiency. The low sperm motility maybe contributed to protein components variation of spermatozoa and seminal plasma. The composition of buffalo spermatozoa and buffalo seminal plasma (BSP) remains unknown. Proteomic study would be beneficial to the elucidation of the roles of sperm and BSP proteins in regulation of maturation, motility and fertilization. As such, the aim of the current study was to extensively characterize the differentially expressed protein of buffalo spermatozoa and seminal plasma using a comparative proteomics.

Project description:Abstract Buffalo bulls are the backbone of Indian dairy industry, and the quality of semen donating bulls determine the overall production efficiency of buffalo dairy farms. Seminal plasma (SP) of bulls harbor millions of lipid bilayer nanovesicles known as extracellular vesicles (EVs). These EVs carry a heterogenous cargo of essential biomolecules including fertility associated proteins which contribute to the fertilizing potential of spermatozoa. In this study, we explored various parameters of EVs such as size, concentration and the complete proteome profiles of SP EVs from two distinct fertility groups in order to unravel the differentially abundant proteins that potentially affect the overall fertility of bulls. Through Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) it was found that the purified EVs were present in 7 to 14 size exclusion chromatographic (SEC) fractions with sizes ranging from 145 to 256 nm in the high fertile (HF) and low fertile (LF) bulls. Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) confirmed the size of seminal EVs up to 200 nm, and concentrations varying from 2.84 to 6.82 × 1011 and 3.57 to 7.74 × 1011 particles per ml in HF and LF bulls, respectively across all the fractions. No significant difference was observed in the size and concentration of seminal EVs between the HF and LF groups. We identified a total of 1862 and 1807 proteins in seminal EVs of HF and LF bulls, respectively using high throughput LC-MS/MS approach. Out of these total proteins, 1754 proteins were common in both the groups and about 87 proteins were highly abundant in HF group while 1292 were less abundant as compared to LF bulls. Gene ontology (GO) analysis, revealed that the highly abundant proteins in HF group were mainly part of the nucleus and involved in nucleosome assembly along with DNA binding. In addition, highly abundant proteins in EVs of HF group were found to be involved in spermatogenesis, motility, acrosome reaction, capacitation, gamete fusion, and cryotolerance. Two highly abundant proteins of HF EVs, namely protein disulfide-isomerase A4 (PDIA4) and gelsolin (GSN), were successfully immunolocalized on spermatozoa, indicating that these proteins might be transferred to spermatozoa through EVs. The proteins; PDIA4 and GSN are intricately associated with sperm-oocyte fusion and acrosome reaction, respectively, thus they are vital for regulating the fertilizing capacity of sperm. Our evidences clearly support that the protein repertoires in EVs and subsequently their presence on sperm, are strongly associated with sperm functions. Altogether, the current investigation clearly indicates that SPEVs possess crucial protein repertoires which are essential for enhancing the sperm fertilizing capacity.
