Comparative proteomic analysis of Ulva prolifera response to high temperature stress.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Ulva prolifera belongs to green macroalgae and is the dominant species of green tide. It is distributed worldwide and is therefore subject to high-temperature stress during the growth process. However, the adaptation mechanisms of the response of U. prolifera to high temperatures have not been clearly investigated yet.

Methods

In this study, isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) labelling was applied in combination with the liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to conduct comparative proteomic analysis of the response of U. prolifera to high-temperature stress and to elucidate the involvement of this response in adaptation mechanisms. Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) of U. prolifera und
