Project description:This study examines how histone modification confers salt stress in Arabidopsis. The floral initiator SKB1 is found to mediate the plant’s response to salt stress by altering the methylation status of histone H4R3 and of the small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) LSM4, and thereby affecting the expression of stress-responsive genes. Total RNA was isolated with Trizol reagent (Invitrogen) from eleven11-day-old seedlings of the wild type and skb1-1 mutant without or with 200 mM NaCl for 6 hrs. 29k Arabidopsis Genome Array hybridization was carried out by CapitalBio Corporation (Beijing, China).
Project description:Proteins and peptides are minor components of vegetal oils. The presence of these compounds in virgin olive oil was first reported in 2001, but the nature of the olive oil proteome is still a puzzling question for food science researchers. In this project, we have compiled for a first time a comprehensive proteomic dataset of olive fruit and fungal proteins that are present at low but measurable concentrations in a vegetable oil from a crop of great agronomical relevance as olive (Olea europaea L.). Accurate mass nLC-MS data were collected in high definition direct data analysis (HD-DDA) mode using the ion mobility separation step. Protein identification was performed using the Mascot Server v2.2.07 software (Matrix Science) against an ad hoc database made of olive protein entries. Starting from this proteomic record, the impact of these proteins on olive oil stability and quality could be tested. Moreover, the effect of olive oil proteins on human health and their potential use as functional food components could be also evaluated. In addition, this dataset provides a resource for use in further functional comparisons across other vegetable oils, and also expands the proteomic resources to non-model species, thus also allowing further comparative inter-species studies.
