Protein Metabolism Underlying Heat Tolerance in Contrasting Creeping Bentgrass Lines: Insights From Gel-Free Proteomics and Polyubiquitin-Omics.

ABSTRACT: One of the major disfunctions in heat-stressed plants is enhanced protein damage. Creeping bentgrass (Agrositis stolonifera L.) is an economically important perennial grass species but it is sensitive to high temperatures. Several experimental lines of creeping bentgrass varied in response for physiological traits, total protein content, and protein degradation rates in response to heat stress. The ubiquitin-proteasome system plays a crucial role in the removal of damaged proteins, and there is a critical need to better understand the changes in proteins that occur during heat stress. Hence, we aimed to estimate change in global protein accumulations by performing gel-free proteomics, and polyubiquitin-omics to identify proteins that have been polyubiquitinated and targeted to the ubiquiti
