Proteomic analysis of preharvest sprouting in rye using two-dimensional electrophoresis and mass spectrometry.

ABSTRACT: Qualitative and quantitative differences were found between two-dimensional electrophoretic spectra of 546 proteins from two bulked samples of mature rye grain representing: (1) 20 recombinant inbred lines extremely resistant to preharvest sprouting and (2) 20 recombinant inbred lines extremely susceptible to preharvest sprouting. Mass spectrometry of resolved proteins showed that four spots specific for PHS susceptibility represented high molecular weight glutenin subunit, glutathione transferase, 16.9 kDa heat-shock protein, and monomeric alpha-amylase inhibitor. Two spots specific for PHS resistance contained cytosolic malate dehydrogenase and functionally unrecognized protein with sequence homology to rubber elongation factor protein. Majority of 14 proteins with at least two-fold high
