Comparative proteomics analysis of Brassica napus in response to drought stress

ABSTRACT: Drought is one of the most severe stresses leading to retardation of plant growth and development and loss of crop yield. Here we examined the proteome changes of an important oil seed crop canola Brassica napus under drought stress over a 14 day period. Using iTRAQ LC-MS/MS, we identified 2,244 proteins expressed during drought stress. Among them, 412 proteins showed significant changes in abundance under stress, and 67, 243, 287, and 79 proteins were differentially expressed in 3rd, 7th, 10th, and 14th day of drought stress, respectively. Functional analysis of the 412 proteins indicated that the number of proteins associated with “Metabolism”, “Protein synthesis”, and “Signaling” decreased, while those related to “Photosynthesis” and “Stress and defense” increased in response to drought stress. In particular, the proteome profiles at the 7th and 10th day were similar to each other, although there were much more post-translational modifications (PTM) at the 10th day of drought. Interestingly, 286 of 2,244 proteins exhibited PTMs in response to drought stress, 82 of which were differentially changed in drought-stressed plants, and 60 were observed at the 10th day. Furthermore, comparison of protein expression changes with those of gene transcription showed that there was positive correlation in B. napus, although there were different patterns between transcripts and proteins at each time point. As drought stress prolongs, most of the protein abundance changes may be attributed to gene transcription, and PTMs clearly contribute to the protein diversity and functions.

Drought is one of the most widespread stresses leading to retardation of plant growth and development. We examined proteome changes of an important oil seed crop, canola (Brassica napus L.), under drought stress over a 14-day period. Using iTRAQ LC-MS/MS, we identified 1976 proteins expressed during drought stress. Among them, 417 proteins showed significant changes in abundance, and 136, 244, 286, and 213 proteins were differentially expressed in the third, seventh, 10th, and 14th day of stress ...[more]

Project description:Drought stress is a major problem around the world and although progress in understanding how vegetable crops and model plants adapt to drought have been made, there is still little information about how fruit crops deal with moderate drought stress. In this study, we investigated the response of two apple genotypes: a drought-sensitive genotype (M26) and a drought-tolerant genotype (MBB). Our results of the morphology, physiology and biochemistry under moderate drought stress, indicated that relative water content (RWC) and leaf area (LA) were not significant changes in two genotypes. However, it had larger leaf mass per area (LMA), and accumulated higher free proline (CFP), soluble sugars (CSS) and malonaldehyde (MDA) in the leaves. Thus, it appears that the MBB genotype could produce more osmosis-regulating substances. Phosphoproteomic was analyzed from leaves of both genotypes under moderate drought stress using the isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) technology. A total of 595 unique phosphopeptides, 682 phosphorylated sites and 446 phosphoproteins were quantitatively analyzed in the two genotypes. Motif analyses of the phosphorylation sites showed that six motifs including [PxsP], [sP], [sD], [Rxxs], [sxP] and [sxs] were enriched. We identified 12 and 48 PLSC phosphoproteins in M26 and MBB, respectively. Among these, 9 PLSC phosphoproteins were common to both genotypes, perhaps indicating a partial overlaps of the mechanisms to moderate drought stress. Gene ontology analyses revealed that the PLSC phosphoproteins present a unique combination of metabolism, transcription, translation and protein processing, suggesting that the response in apple to moderate drought stress encompasses a new homeostasis of major cellular processes. The basic trend was an increase in protein abundance related to drought and organic substance upon moderate drought stress between two genotypes. These increases were higher in the drought-tolerant genotype (MBB) than in the drought-sensitive genotype (M26). The 23 differentially expressed mRNA encoding phosphoproteins were analysis by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Our study is the first to address the phosphoproteome of a major fruit crop, apple rootstocks, in response to moderate drought stress, and provide insights into the molecular regulation mechanisms of apple rootstock under moderate drought stress.

Project description:Switchgrass plants were grown in a Sandwich tube system to induce gradual drought stress by withholding watering. After 29 days, leaf photosynthetic rate decreased significantly, compared to the control plants which were watered regularly. The drought-treated plants recovered to the same leaf water content after three days of re-watering. Root tip (1cm basal fragment, designated as RT1 hereafter) and the elongation/maturation zone (the next upper 1 cm tissue, designated as RT2 hereafter) tissues were collected at the 29th day of drought stress treatment, (named SDT for severe drought treated), one (D1W) and three days (D3W) of re-watering. The tandem mass tags mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomics analysis was performed to identify the proteomes, and drought-induced differentially expressed proteins (DEPs). From RT1 tissues, 6,156, 7,687 and 7,699 proteins were quantified, and 296, 535 and 384 DEPs were identified in the SDT, D1W and D3W samples, respectively. From RT2 tissues, 7,382, 7,255 and 6,883 proteins were quantified, and 393, 587 and 321 proteins DEPs were identified in the SDT, D1W and D3W samples. Between RT1 and RT2 tissues, very few DEPs overlapped at SDT, but the number of such proteins increased during the recovery phase. A large number of hydrophilic proteins and stress-responsive proteins were induced during SDT and remained at a higher level during the recovery stages. A large number of DEPs in RT1 tissues maintained the same expression pattern throughout drought treatment and the recovery phases. The DEPs in RT1 tissues were classified in cell proliferation, mitotic cell division, and chromatin modification, and those in RT2 were placed in cell wall remodeling and cell expansion processes. This study provided information pertaining to root zone-specific proteome changes during drought and recover phases, which will allow us to choose the proteins (genes) as better defined targets for developing drought tolerant plants.
