Abstract
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis has been instrumental in the birth and developments of proteomics, although it is no longer the exclusive separation tool used in the field of proteomics. In this review, a historical perspective is made, starting from the days where two-dimensional gels were used and the word proteomics did not even exist. The events that have led to the birth of proteomics are also recalled, ending with a description of the now well-known limitations of two-dimensional gels in proteomics. However, the often-underestimated advantages of two-dimensional gels are also underlined, leading to a description of how and when to use two-dimensional gels for the best in a proteomics approach. Taking support of these advantages (robustness, resolution, and ability to separate entire, intact proteins), possible future applications of this technique in proteomics are also mentioned.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide and has poor prognosis. To identify the proteins involved in colorectal carcinogenesis, we employed 2-DE and MALDI-TOF/TOF-based proteomics approach to study the differentially expressed proteins in tumor and adjacent nontumor tissue samples. Samples from 10 colorectal patients were analyzed. Of the 7 significantly and consistently altered proteins identified, hnRNP A1 was one of the most significantly altered proteins and its overexpression was confirmed using RT-PCR and Western blot analyses. Immunohistochemical examination showed that the enhanced expression of hnRNP A1 was correlated with the increasing severity of colorectal tissue and the progression of the colorectal cancer, as well as UICC (International Union against Cancer) staging, histo-differentiation, recurrence and decreased survival. By developing a highly sensitive immunoassay, hnRNP A1 could be detected in human serum and was significantly elevated in CRC patients compared with healthy volunteers. We proposed that hnRNP A1 could be considered as a novel serum tumor marker for CRC that may have significance in the detection and in the management of patients with this disease. Knockdown of hnRNP A1 expression by RNA interference led to the significant suppression of the cell growth in colorectal cancer SW480 cells in vitro. These data suggested that hnRNP A1 may be a potential biomarker for early diagnosis, prognosis, and monitoring in the therapy of colorectal cancer. Further studies are needed to fully assess the potential clinical value of this biomarker candidate.

Abstract
We describe the characterization of polyclonal antibodies directed against the whole mitochondrial subproteome, as obtained by hyperimmunization of rabbits with an organelle fraction purified from human skeletal muscle and lysed by sonication. After 2-DE separations with either blue native electrophoresis or IPG as first dimension and blotting, the polyspecific antibodies detect 113 proteins in human muscle mitochondria, representative of all major biochemical pathways and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complexes, and cross-react with 28 proteins in rat heart mitochondria. Using as sample cryosections of human muscle biopsies lysed in urea/thiourea/CHAPS, the mitochondrial subproteome can be detected against the background of contractile proteins. When comparing with controls samples from mitochondrial encephalomyopathy with lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes patients, immunoblotting shows in the latter a drastic reduction for the subunits of OXPHOS complex I as well as an increase of several enzymes, including ATP synthase. This finding is the first evidence at the proteomic level of massive up-regulation in a number of metabolic pathways by which the affected tissues try to compensate for the deficit in the OXPHOS machinery.

Abstract
We previously reported targeted overexpression of c-myc to alveolar epithelium to cause lung cancer. We now extended our studies to the serum proteome of tumor bearing mice. Proteins were extracted with a thiourea-containing lysis buffer and separated by 2-DE at pH 4-7 and 3-10 followed by MALDI-TOF/TOF analysis. Forty-six proteins were identified in tumor bearing mice of which n = 9 were statistically significant. This included disease regulated expression of orosomucoid-8, alpha-2-macroglobulin, apolipoprotein-A1, apolipoprotein-C3, glutathione peroxidase-3, plasma retinol-binding protein, and transthyretin, while expression of apolipoprotein-E was decreased at late stages of disease. Moreover, serum amyloid P component was uniquely expressed at late stages of cancer. It is of considerable importance that most disease regulated proteins carried the E-Box sequence (CACGTG) in the promoter of the coding gene, therefore providing evidence for their regulation by c-myc. Notably, expression of alpha-2-macroglobulin, transthyretin, alpha-1-antitrypsin, and properdin was in common in different lung tumor models, but regulation of orosomucoid-8, apolipoprotein-A1, apolipoprotein-C3, apolipoprotein-E, glutathione peroxidase-3, plasma retinol-binding protein, and serum amyloid P component was unique when the serum proteomes of c-myc and c-raf tumor bearing mice were compared. Therefore, candidate biomarkers to differentiate between atypical adenomatous hyperplasias (AAH) and bronchiolo-alveolar carcinomas (BAC)/papillary adenocarcinomas (PLAC) can be proposed.

Abstract
The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis belongs to the strategies plants have developed to cope with adverse environmental conditions including contamination by heavy metals such as cadmium (Cd). In the present work, we report on the protective effect conferred by AM symbiosis to the model legume Medicago truncatula grown in presence of Cd, and on the 2-D-based proteomic approach further used to compare the proteomes of M. truncatula roots either colonised or not with the AM fungus Glomus intraradices in Cd-free and Cd-contaminated substrates. The results indicated that at the proteome level, 9 out of the 15 cadmium-induced changes in nonmycorrhizal roots were absent or inverse in those Cd-treated and colonized by G. intraradices, including the G. intraradices-dependent down-accumulation of Cd stress-responsive proteins. Out of the twenty-six mycorrhiza-related proteins that were identified, only six displayed changes in abundance upon Cd exposure, suggesting that part of the symbiotic program, which displays low sensitivity to Cd, may be recruited to counteract Cd toxicity through the mycorrhiza-dependent synthesis of proteins having functions putatively involved in alleviating oxidative damages, including a cyclophilin, a guanine nucleotide-binding protein, an ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase, a thiazole biosynthetic enzyme, an annexin, a glutathione S-transferase (GST)-like protein, and a S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) synthase.

Abstract
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) separates proteins by molecular charge and molecular size. Proteins are first solubilised in a denaturing buffer containing a neutral chaotrope, a zwitterionic or neutral detergent, and a reducing agent. First-dimension isoelectric keywords, focusing, then subjects proteins to a high voltage within a pH gradient. The amphoteric nature of proteins means each migrates to the pH where the net molecular charge is zero. After equilibration, to ensure complete protein unfolding, the second dimension separates by molecular size. Each protein is therefore resolved at a unique isoelectric point/molecular size coordinate. After visualisation by staining proteome changes are revealed by gel image analysis, and protein spots of interest excised and identified by mass spectrometry sequence analysis combined with database comparison. Variations to this procedure include staining or radio-labelling prior to electrophoresis. Although 2DE does have limitations, the most significant being the resolution of membrane and/or hydrophobic proteins, the potential solutions offered by pre-fractionation or adjustments to the electrophoresis regimen mean this technique is likely to remain central to proteomic research.

Abstract
Genotype and water deficit effects on leaf 2-DE protein profiles of two Populus deltoides x Populus nigra, cv. 'Agathe_F' and 'Cima', were analysed over a short-term period of 18 days in glasshouse using 4-month-old rooted cuttings and over a long-lasting period of 86 days in open field using 4-year-old rooted cuttings. Leaf proteomes were analyzed using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and proteins were identified after database searching from MS peptide spectra. A reliable genotype effect was observed in the leaf proteome over experiment locations, water regimes and sampling dates. Quantitative differences between genotypes were found. Most of them corresponded to proteins matching isoforms or post-translational modification variants. However, 'Cima' displayed the highest abundance of antioxidant enzymes. In response to water deficit, about 10% of the reproducible spots significantly varied regardless of the experiment location, among which about 25% also displayed genotype-dependent variations. As a whole, while 'Cima' differed from 'Agathe_F' by increased abundance of enzymes involved in photorespiration and in oxidative stress, 'Agathe_F' was mainly differentiated by increased abundance of enzymes involved in photosynthesis.

Abstract
Black spot disease in poplar is a disease of the leaf caused by fungus. The major pathogen is Marssonina brunnea f. sp. multigermtubi. To date, little is known about the molecular mechanism of poplar (M. brunnea) interaction. In order to identify the proteins related to disease resistance and understand its molecular basis, the clone "NL895" (P. euramericana CL"NL895"), which is highly resistant to M. brunnea f. sp. multigermtubi, was used in this study. We used two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and mass spectrometry (MS) to identify the proteins in poplar leaves that were differentially expressed in response to black spot disease pathogen, M. brunnea f. sp. multigermtubi. Proteins extracted from poplar leaves at 0, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h after pathogen-inoculation were separated by 2-DE. About 500 reproducible protein spots were detected, of which 40 protein spots displayed differential expression in levels and were subjected to Matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) followed by database searching. According to the function, the identified proteins were sorted into five categories, that is, protein synthesis, metabolism, defense response and unclassified proteins.

Abstract
We have produced human alpha1-antitrypsin (A1AT), a major therapeutic protein, in genetically engineered tobacco plastids. Four different expression vectors have been evaluated which encode A1AT under the control of various 5' and 3' plastid expression elements. The use of heterologous promoter and terminator sequences derived from the corn and soybean plastid genomes leads to simpler and predictable recombinant genome patterns, avoiding unwanted recombination products between introduced and resident tobacco sequences. High level expression of unglycosylated A1AT, representing up to 2% of total soluble proteins, has been measured in leaves of transgenic tobacco lines. Some heterogeneity in the recombinant A1AT is detected after 2D protein separation, but the chloroplast-made protease inhibitors are fully active and bind to porcine pancreatic elastase.

Abstract
The "seventeen kilodalton protein" (Skp) is a predominant periplasmic chaperone of Escherichia coli, which is involved in the biogenesis of abundant outer membrane proteins (OMPs) such as OmpA, PhoE, and LamB. In this study the substrate profile of Skp was investigated in a proteomics approach. Skp was overexpressed in a deficient E. coli strain as a fusion protein with the Strep-tag and captured, together with any host proteins associated with it, from the periplasmic cell extract under mild conditions via one-step Strep-Tactin affinity chromatography. Copurified substrate proteins were then identified by high resolution 2-DE with immobilized pH-gradients, followed by MALDI-TOF MS. Apart from the known Skp substrates, including OmpA and LamB, more than 30 other interacting proteins were detected, especially from the outer membrane, among these FadL and BtuB, and from the periplasm such as MalE and OppA. Thus, Skp does not only serve as a specialized chaperone for a small set of OMPs, but it seems to exhibit a broader substrate spectrum, including soluble periplasmic proteins. These findings should prompt further investigation into the physiological role of Skp and may promote its use for the bacterial production of biochemically active heterologous proteins whose folding requires secretion into the oxidizing milieu of the periplasm.

Abstract
Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) with immobilized pH gradients (IPGs) combined with protein identification by mass spectrometry is currently the workhorse for the majority of ongoing proteome projects. Although alternative/complementary technologies, such as MudPIT, ICAT, or protein arrays, have emerged recently, there is up to now no technology that matches 2-DE in its ability for routine parallel expression profiling of large sets of complex protein mixtures. 2-DE delivers a map of intact proteins, which reflects changes in protein expression level, isoforms, or post-translational modifications. High-resolution 2-DE can resolve up to 5,000 proteins simultaneously ( approximately 2,000 proteins routinely), and detect and quantify <1 ng of protein per spot. Today's 2-DE technology with IPGs has largely overcome the former limitations of carrier ampholyte-based 2-DE with respect to reproducibility, handling, resolution, and separation of very acidic or basic proteins. Current research to further advance 2-DE technology has focused on improved solubilization/separation of hydrophobic proteins, display of low abundance proteins, and reliable protein quantitation by fluorescent dye technologies. Here, we provide a comprehensive protocol of the current high-resolution 2-DE technology with IPGs for proteome analysis and describe in detail the individual steps of this technique, i.e., sample preparation and protein solubilization, isoelectric focusing in IPG strips, IPG strip equilibration, and casting and running of multiple SDS gels. Last but not the least, a section on how to circumvent the major pitfalls is included.

Abstract
A variety of mechanisms have been proposed to account for the extension of life span in seeds (seed longevity). In this work, we used Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) seeds as a model and carried out differential proteomics to investigate this trait, which is of both ecological and agricultural importance. In our system based on a controlled deterioration treatment (CDT), we compared seed samples treated for different periods of time up to 7 d. Germination tests showed a progressive decrease of germination vigor depending on the duration of CDT. Proteomic analyses revealed that this loss in seed vigor can be accounted for by protein changes in the dry seeds and by an inability of the low-vigor seeds to display a normal proteome during germination. Furthermore, CDT strongly increased the extent of protein oxidation (carbonylation), which might induce a loss of functional properties of seed proteins and enzymes and/or enhance their susceptibility toward proteolysis. These results revealed essential mechanisms for seed vigor, such as translational capacity, mobilization of seed storage reserves, and detoxification efficiency. Finally, this work shows that similar molecular events accompany artificial and natural seed aging.

Abstract
Gastric cancer is the second most common cancer worldwide and has a poor prognosis. To determine the mechanism of adaptation to metabolic stress in cancer cells, we used gastric cancer as a model system to reveal the potential signaling pathways involved. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis coupled with ESI-Q-TOF MS/MS analysis was used to identify differentially expressed proteins between gastric tumor tissues and the corresponding noncancerous tissues. In total, 107 spots with significant alteration (+/-over 2-fold, p < 0.05) were positively identified by MS/MS analysis. Altered expression of representative proteins was validated by RT-PCR and Western blotting. Cluster analysis of the changed proteins revealed an interesting group of metabolic proteins, which suggested accumulation of triiodothyronine (T(3); the major functional component of thyroid hormone) and overexpression of hypoxia-induced factor (HIF) in gastric carcinoma. These observations were further confirmed by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay and immunohistochemistry. T(3)-induced expression of HIF1-alpha and vascular endothelial growth factor was further verified using a gastric cancer cell line and in vivo mouse model. Because the early accumulation of HIF1-alpha was found to be independent of de novo transcription, we also found that the cytosolic cascade phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt pathway sensitive to T(3) stimulus was involved. Furthermore we demonstrated that T(3)-induced overexpression of HIF1-alpha was mediated by fumarate accumulation and could be enhanced by fumarate hydratase inactivation but inhibited by 2-oxoglutarate. These results provide evidence for alteration of metabolic proteins and dysfunction of thyroid hormone regulation in gastric tumors, and a novel thyroid hormone-mediated tumorigenic signaling pathway is proposed. Our findings are considered a significant step toward a better understanding of adaptations to metabolic stress in gastric carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Soil salinity is a major abiotic constraint to agricultural productivity. We successfully bred a new common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) introgression variety (Shanrong No. 3) with high salt-tolerance via asymmetric somatic hybridization between common wheat cultivar (Jinan 177) and UV-irradiated Agropyron elongatum (Thinopyrum ponticum Podp). We report here a comparative proteomic analysis to investigate variety-specific and salt-responsive proteins between seedling-roots of Shanrong No. 3 and Jinan 177. In total, 114 spots reproducibly presented differential expression patterns on 2-DE maps. Of them, 34 were variety-specific and 49 were salt-responsive. We identified 110 spots by MALDI-TOF MS and partially confirmed by MALDI-TOF-TOF MS, and functionally classified them into signal transduction, transcription and translation, transporting, chaperones, proteolysis and detoxification, etc. Meanwhile, we also found the alteration of protein expression of Shanrong No. 3 through inhibition of old proteins and production of novel ones, change in abundance and sensitivity of some nonsalt-responsive and salt-responsive proteins, as well as PTMs. Furthermore, comparison between proteome and transcripteome using cDNA microarray showed that there were only 20 proteins with abundances correlative to signal densities of corresponding EST probes. This study gives us a global insight into proteomic difference between Shanrong No. 3 and Jinan 177 in constitute and to salt-response.

Abstract
Plant chloroplasts are promising vehicles for recombinant protein production, but the process of protein folding in these organelles is not well understood in comparison with that in prokaryotic systems, such as Escherichia coli. This is particularly true for disulphide bond formation which is crucial for the biological activity of many therapeutic proteins. We have investigated the capacity of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) chloroplasts to efficiently form disulphide bonds in proteins by expressing in this plant cell organelle a well-known bacterial enzyme, alkaline phosphatase, whose activity and stability strictly depend on the correct formation of two intramolecular disulphide bonds. Plastid transformants have been generated that express either the mature enzyme, localized in the stroma, or the full-length coding region, including its signal peptide. The latter has the potential to direct the recombinant alkaline phosphatase into the lumen of thylakoids, giving access to this even less well-characterized organellar compartment. We show that the chloroplast stroma supports the formation of an active enzyme, unlike a normal bacterial cytosol. Sorting of alkaline phosphatase to the thylakoid lumen occurs in the plastid transformants translating the full-length coding region, and leads to larger amounts and more active enzyme. These results are compared with those obtained in bacteria. The implications of these findings on protein folding properties and competency of chloroplasts for disulphide bond formation are discussed.

Abstract
The effect of overexpression of the gene ADH2 on metabolic and biological activity in Saccharomyces bayanus V5 during alcoholic fermentation has been evaluated. This gene is known to encode alcohol dehydrogenase II (ADH II). During the biological aging of sherry wines, where yeasts have to grow on ethanol owing to the absence of glucose, this isoenzyme plays a prominent role by converting the ethanol into acetaldehyde and producing NADH in the process. Overexpression of the gene ADH2 during alcoholic fermentation has no effect on the proteomic profile or the net production of some metabolites associated with glycolysis and alcoholic fermentation such as ethanol, acetaldehyde, and glycerol. However, it affects indirectly glucose and ammonium uptakes, cell growth, and intracellular redox potential, which lead to an altered metabolome. The increased contents in acetoin, acetic acid, and L-proline present in the fermentation medium under these conditions can be ascribed to detoxification by removal of excess acetaldehyde and the need to restore and maintain the intracellular redox potential balance.

Abstract
The separation of integral and peripheral membrane proteins is still a challenge, although many achievements have been made in the 2-DE-based membrane proteomics. Using a human breast cancer cell line, MCF-7, we investigated the influences of Tris, reducing reagents, cup loading, and SDS on membrane protein solubilization and separation by 2-DE. The addition of Tris to the sample solution improved the solubilization of the membrane-enriched fraction, and the best-quality gel patterns were obtained at 20 mM Tris. Tributylphosphine (TBP), a reducing agent, was not optimum in the 2-DE process because it not only decreased the solubilization of hydrophobic proteins but also caused some proteins, such as hsp60, prohibitin, and actin, to be resolved to a string of spots. However, when combined with DTT, TBP could improve the resolution of 2-DE patterns. Cup loading significantly facilitated the entrance of membrane proteins into IPG strips and over 1000 protein spots with high resolution were visualized. Adopting this strategy, an ATP synthase alpha chain was resolved into two adjacent spots for the first time in 2-DE gel patterns through the adding DTT in the middle of the IEF. A high SDS concentration in the equilibration buffer enhanced the transfer and increased the staining intensity of 50% of the protein spots in the gels, but also resulted in losses of some spots.

Abstract
The synthesis of hemi-fluorinated zwitterionic surfactants was realized and assessed for 2-DE, a powerful separation method for proteomic analysis. These new fluorinated amidosulfobetaine (FASB-p,m) were compared to their hydrocarbon counterparts amidosulfobetaine (ASB-n) characterized by a hydrophilic polar head, a hydrophobic and lipophilic tail, and an amido group as connector. The tail of these FASB surfactants was in part fluorinated resulting in the modulation of its lipophilicity (or oleophobicity). Their effect on the red blood cell (RBC) membrane showed a specific solubilization depending on the length of the hydrophobic part. A large number of polypeptide spots appeared in the 2-DE patterns by using FASB-p,m. The oleophobic character of these surfactants was confirmed by the fact that Band 3, a highly hydrophobic transmembrane protein, was not solubilized by these fluorinated structures. The corresponding pellet was very rich in Band 3 and could then be solubilized by using a strong detergent such as amidosulfobetaine with an alkyl tail containing 14 carbon atoms (ASB-14). Thus, these hemi-fluorinated surfactants appeared as powerful tools when used at the first step of a two-step solubilization strategy using a hydrocarbon homologous surfactant in the second step.

Abstract
Livestock infection by the parasitic fluke Fasciola hepatica causes major economic losses worldwide. The excretory-secretory (ES) products produced by F. hepatica are key players in understanding the host-parasite interaction and offer targets for chemo- and immunotherapy. For the first time, subproteomics has been used to compare ES products produced by adult F. hepatica in vivo, within ovine host bile, with classical ex host in vitro ES methods. Only cathepsin L proteases from F. hepatica were identified in our ovine host bile preparations. Several host proteins were also identified including albumin and enolase with host trypsin inhibitor complex identified as a potential biomarker for F. hepatica infection. Time course in vitro analysis confirmed cathepsin L proteases as the major constituents of the in vitro ES proteome. In addition, detoxification proteins (glutathione transferase and fatty acid-binding protein), actin, and the glycolytic enzymes enolase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase were all identified in vitro. Western blotting of in vitro and in vivo ES proteins showed only cathepsin L proteases were recognized by serum pooled from F. hepatica-infected animals. Other liver fluke proteins released during in vitro culture may be released into the host bile environment via natural shedding of the adult fluke tegument. These proteins may not have been detected during our in vivo analysis because of an increased bile turnover rate and may not be recognized by pooled liver fluke infection sera as they are only produced in adults. This study highlights the difficulties identifying authentic ES proteins ex host, and further confirms the potential of the cathepsin L proteases as therapy candidates.

Abstract
N-glycosylated proteins were isolated from Arabidopsis thaliana mature stems using affinity chromatography on Concanavalin A Sepharose, separated by 2D-electrophoresis and identified using nanoHPLC-MS/MS and MALDI-TOF MS. 102 glycoproteins were identified. 94% of these proteins were predicted by bioinformatics to be targeted to the secretory pathway and 87% of them were predicted to be localized in the cell wall or at the plasma membrane. 30% of these proteins belong to glycoside hydrolase (GH) families with some of them possibly involved in the hydrolysis of cell wall polysaccharides. The second major class of identified proteins comprises aspartyl and serine proteases. Other proteins are predicted to be oxido-reductases, contain interacting domains, are potentially involved in signalling or have an unknown function. This is, to our knowledge, the first survey of plant cell wall N-glycosylated proteins.

Abstract
In a proteomic approach using 2-DE, the changes in protein expression patterns in wing imaginal discs induced by hormone treatment have been studied. Here we show the response of butterfly imaginal wing disc tissue taken from late fifth instar larvae of the African-Mocker swallowtail Papilio dardanus (Lepidoptera) to the insect hormones 20-hydroxyecdysone (20-HE) and juvenile hormone (JH). The tissues were cultured in the presence of one hormone or a combination of both and their protein expression was compared to the pattern obtained from untreated wing discs. All the treatments resulted in changes in the expression pattern distinct from the uninduced control, indicating a distinct protein regulation induced by the hormones. The treatment with both of the hormones, which are known to have antagonistic physiological effects, did show a unique pattern, presumably the result, in part, of synergistic effects on protein expression mediated by the combined effects of both the hormones. The extent of the interaction between JH and 20-HE indicates a complex molecular regulation, far beyond a simple antagonistic effect.

Abstract
At harvest, sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seeds are dormant and unable to germinate at temperatures below 15 degrees C. Seed storage in the dry state, known as after-ripening, is associated with an alleviation of embryonic dormancy allowing subsequent germination at suboptimal temperatures. To identify the process by which dormancy is broken during after-ripening, we focused on the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in this phenomenon. After-ripening entailed a progressive accumulation of ROS, namely superoxide anions and hydrogen peroxide, in cells of embryonic axes. This accumulation, which was investigated at the cellular level by electron microscopy, occurred concomitantly with lipid peroxidation and oxidation (carbonylation) of specific embryo proteins. Incubation of dormant seeds for 3 h in the presence of hydrogen cyanide (a compound that breaks dormancy) or methylviologen (a ROS-generating compound) also released dormancy and caused the oxidation of a specific set of embryo proteins. From these observations, we propose a novel mechanism for seed dormancy alleviation. This mechanism involves ROS production and targeted changes in protein carbonylation patterns.

Abstract
In this study, we characterized the therapeutical effects of Salviae Mitiorrhizae (Danshen) and Cortex Moutan (Danpi) extract (SDD) on Sprague-Dawley rats subjected to coronary artery ligation, and applied proteomic approach to investigate its potential mechanism of action. The chemical composition of SDD was investigated by HPLC/MS(n) analysis. Measurement for serum levels of creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), nitrite and histological study for infarct area of heart were performed. Moreover, protein abundance profiles of myocardium were compared by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and altered proteins were identified by MALDI-TOF-MS. The results showed SDD significantly decreased CK, CK-MB concentration in serum and infarct area of heart, while increased the release of nitrite in rats with coronary occlusion. Increased concentration of ATP and total adenine nucleotide indicated the energy metabolism has been improved in ischemic heart induced by SDD. Proteomic data revealed that 23 proteins associated with energy metabolism, oxidative stress and cytoskeleton were modulated in SDD treated rats.

Abstract
Different Nicotiana benthamiana lines stably transformed with Abutilon mosaic virus (AbMV) dimeric DNA B were capable of systemically spreading complete bipartite AbMV genomes, following agroinoculation of DNA A alone. Constitutively expressed viral movement protein (BC1) did not induce any persistent disease phenotype, but plants developed transient morphological abnormalities such as radially symmetric leaves after kanamycin withdrawal. Systemic AbMV infection produced symptoms and virus titers indistinguishable from those in non-transgenic plants. In systemically invaded leaves, the begomovirus remained phloem-limited, whereas the plants' susceptibility to mechanical transmission of AbMV was enhanced by a factor of three to five, as compared to non-transgenic controls. Hence, DNA B-encoded movement functions can complement local movement to the phloem after mechanical transmission, but fail to support viral invasion of non-phloem cells in systemically infected organs, indicating that the phloem restriction of AbMV does not result predominantly from a lack of transport competence in mesophyll tissues.

Abstract
Many undesired by-products have been noticed during alkylation with iodoacetamide, a widely used derivatization reaction in proteomics for the determination of sulfhydryl groups in peptides and proteins. We report here that iodoacetamide reacts with the N-terminal NH2 and the C-terminal carboxylic acid groups, in addition to the peripheral residues bearing protic functional groups. If sufficient reaction time is given, the N-terminal NH2 group is readily dialkylated by iodoacetamide. In fact, the N-terminal NH2 group reacts even faster than the reactive sites present in residues, such as tyrosine or histidine. LC/MS investigations with certain reactive peptides show that by-products are formed in a relatively short reaction time, even at room temperature. Interestingly, derivatives formed in this way are useful for sequence determination of peptides by MS since the intensities of y'' ions are highly suppressed in the spectra of N-terminus mono- and dialkylated peptides, whereas those of b-ions are significantly enhanced. For example, in the spectrum of N,N-dicarboxamidomethyl derivative of Val-Ala-Ala-Phe (VAAF), the y-series ions are virtually absent. On the other hand, when the derivatization takes place at the carboxylic group, the y-series ions are markedly observed in the spectra of these undesired O-carboxamidomethyl derivatives.

Abstract
The impact of water deficit and salt stress on two important wine grape cultivars, Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon, was investigated. Plants were exposed to increasing salinity and water deficit stress over a 16 d time period. Measurements of stem water potentials, and shoot and leaf lengths indicated that Chardonnay was more tolerant to these stresses than Cabernet Sauvignon. Shoot tips were harvested every 8 d for proteomic analysis using a trichloroacetic acid/acetone extraction protocol and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Proteins were stained with Coomassie Brilliant Blue, quantified, and then 191 unique proteins were identified using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight/time of flight mass spectrometry. Peptide sequences were matched against both the NCBI nr and TIGR Vitis expressed sequence tag (EST) databases that had been implemented with all public Vitis sequences. Approximately 44% of the protein isoforms could be identified. Analysis of variance indicated that varietal difference was the main source of protein expression variation (40%). In stressed plants, reduction of the amount of proteins involved with photosynthesis, protein synthesis, and protein destination was correlated with the inhibition of shoot elongation. Many of the proteins up-regulated in Chardonnay were of unclassified or of unknown function, whereas proteins specifically up-regulated in Cabernet Sauvignon were involved in protein metabolism.

Abstract
The mechanisms controlling seed dormancy in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) have been characterized by proteomics using the dormant (D) accession Cvi originating from the Cape Verde Islands. Comparative studies carried out with freshly harvested dormant and after-ripened non-dormant (ND) seeds revealed a specific differential accumulation of 32 proteins. The data suggested that proteins associated with metabolic functions potentially involved in germination can accumulate during after-ripening in the dry state leading to dormancy release. Exogenous application of abscisic acid (ABA) to ND seeds strongly impeded their germination, which physiologically mimicked the behavior of D imbibed seeds. This application resulted in an alteration of the accumulation pattern of 71 proteins. There was a strong down-accumulation of a major part (90%) of these proteins, which were involved mainly in energetic and protein metabolisms. This feature suggested that exogenous ABA triggers proteolytic mechanisms in imbibed seeds. An analysis of de novo protein synthesis by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis in the presence of [(35)S]-methionine disclosed that exogenous ABA does not impede protein biosynthesis during imbibition. Furthermore, imbibed D seeds proved competent for de novo protein synthesis, demonstrating that impediment of protein translation was not the cause of the observed block of seed germination. However, the two-dimensional protein profiles were markedly different from those obtained with the ND seeds imbibed in ABA. Altogether, the data showed that the mechanisms blocking germination of the ND seeds by ABA application are different from those preventing germination of the D seeds imbibed in basal medium.

Abstract
We used proteomic approach to analyze the protein profile of human follicular fluid (HFF) obtained from 25 normo-ovulatory women undergoing assisted reproduction techniques due to a male infertility factor. In all HFF samples analyzed we found 695 common spots distributed in the 3 to 10 pH range and in the 10-200 kDa range. Only 625 of these spots were also present in the plasma. We used MALDI-TOF-MS analysis to unequivocally assign 183 HFF/plasma matched spots and 27 HFF/plasma unmatched spots. A large number of acute-phase proteins, including transferrin, ceruloplasmin, afamin, hemopexin, haptoglobin and plasma amyloid protein, were identified in HFF in relatively high concentration supporting the hypothesis that mammalian ovulation can be compared to an inflammatory event. We also identified several important antioxidant enzymes; i.e., catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione transferase, paraoxonase, heat shock protein 27 and protein disulfide isomerase. This indicates that during maturation the human follicle is well protected against toxic injury due to oxidative stress.

Abstract
Photorhabdus luminescens is an insect pathogen associated with specific soil nematodes. The bacterium has a complex life cycle with a symbiotic stage in which bacteria colonize the intestinal tract of the nematodes, and a pathogenic stage against susceptible larval-stage insect. Symbiosis-"deficient" phenotypic variants (known as secondary forms) arise during prolonged incubation. Correspondence analysis of the in silico proteome translated from the genome sequence of strain TT01 identified two major biases in the amino acid composition of the proteins. We analyzed the proteome, separating three classes of extracts: cellular, extracellular, and membrane-associated proteins, resolved by 2-DE. Approximately 450 spots matching the translation products of 231 different coding DNA sequences were identified by PMF. A comparative analysis was performed to characterize the protein content of both variants. Differences were evident during stationary growth phase. Very few proteins were found in variant II supernatants, and numerous proteins were lacking in the membrane-associated fraction. Proteins up-regulated by the phenotypic variation phenomenon were involved in oxidative stress, energy metabolism, and translation. The transport and binding of iron, sugars and amino acids were also affected and molecular chaperones were strongly down-regulated. A potential role for H-NS in phenotypic variation control is discussed.

Abstract
Modification of the Medicago truncatula root proteome during the early stage of arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis was investigated by comparing, using two-dimensional electrophoresis, the protein patterns obtained from non-inoculated roots and roots synchronized for Glomus intraradices appressorium formation. This approach was conducted in wild-type (J5), mycorrhiza-defective (TRV25, dmi3), and autoregulation-defective (TR122, sunn) M. truncatula genotypes. The groups of proteins that responded to appressorium formation were further compared between wild-type and mutant genotypes; few overlaps and major differences were recorded, demonstrating that mutations in DMI3 and SUNN modified the appressorium-responsive root proteome. Except for a chalcone reductase, none of the differentially displayed proteins that could be identified using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry previously was known as appressorium responsive. A DMI3-dependent increased accumulation of signal transduction-related proteins (dehydroascorbate reductase, cyclophilin, and actin depolymerization factor) was found to precede mycorrhiza establishment. Differences in the accumulation of proteins related to plant defense reactions, cytoskeleton rearrangements, and auxin signaling upon symbiont contact were recorded between wild-type and hypermycorrhizal genotypes, pointing to some putative pathways by which SUNN may regulate very early arbuscule formation.

Abstract
The present review touches on a long-lasting debate on possible artefacts (i.e. generation of spurious spots, not belonging to the biological sample under analysis) induced by the separation technique (in this case, two-dimensional mapping) per se. It is shown here that some of the biggest offenders, always blamed in the past (at least since 1970, i.e. since the inception of gel-base isoelectric focusing protocols), namely deamidation (of Asn and Gln residues) and carbamylation (due to cyanate produced in urea solution), simply do not occur in properly handled samples and have never indeed been demonstrated in real samples, except when forced in purpose. Conversely, two unexpected major artefacts have been recently shown to plague 2D mapping. One is formation of homo- and hetero-oligomers in samples that have been reduced but not alkylated prior to entering the electric field. The phenomenon is highly aggravated in alkaline pH regions and can lead to an impressive number of spurious spots not existing in the original sample. Thus, alkylation (best if performed with acrylamide or vinylpyridines) is a must for avoiding such spurious spots, as well as sample streaking and smearing in the alkaline gel region, and for maintaining sample integrity. In fact, the other unexpected artefact is desulfuration (beta-elimination) by which, upon prolonged electrophoresis, the sample looses an -SH group fro Cys residues. This loss, in the long run, is accompanied by massive protein degradation due to lysis of a C-N bond along the polypeptide chain. Here too, alkylation of -SH groups of Cys almost completely prevents this noxious degradation phenomenon.

Abstract
Brain development and aging is a complex process involving proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. Elucidating proteome changes in these processes can help to understand the mechanisms of brain development and maintenance as well as neurodegenerative diseases. The research reported here is a contribution to the HUPO Brain Proteome Project mouse pilot study. Whole, frozen C57BL/6J mouse brain comprising three different developmental stages (embryonic day 16, postnatal day 7, and postnatal days 54-58) were processed by using 2-D DIGE. A total of 1999 spots were matched between all gels. Of these, 206 spots were differentially expressed between the different stages: 122 spots were highest in intensity in embryonic stage E16, 26 highest in the juvenile group P7 and 58 spots highest in P56, the adult stage. The results show a pattern of temporal expression. Based on the expression patterns we tentatively suggest that proteins involved in the establishment of primary structures in the brain are expressed highest in the embryonic mouse. Proteins involved in the development of the brain are expressed highest in the juvenile phase and proteins that make utilization of the brain possible by delivering energy are expressed highest in the adult mice.

Abstract
The influence of salicylic acid (SA) on elicitation of defense mechanisms in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) seeds and seedlings was assessed by physiological measurements combined with global expression profiling (proteomics). Parallel experiments were carried out using the NahG transgenic plants expressing the bacterial gene encoding SA hydroxylase, which cannot accumulate the active form of this plant defense elicitor. SA markedly improved germination under salt stress. Proteomic analyses disclosed a specific accumulation of protein spots regulated by SA as inferred by silver-nitrate staining of two-dimensional gels, detection of carbonylated (oxidized) proteins, and neosynthesized proteins with [35S]-methionine. The combined results revealed several processes potentially affected by SA. This molecule enhanced the reinduction of the late maturation program during early stages of germination, thereby allowing the germinating seeds to reinforce their capacity to mount adaptive responses in environmental water stress. Other processes affected by SA concerned the quality of protein translation, the priming of seed metabolism, the synthesis of antioxidant enzymes, and the mobilization of seed storage proteins. All the observed effects are likely to improve seed vigor. Another aspect revealed by this study concerned the oxidative stress entailed by SA in germinating seeds, as inferred from a characterization of the carbonylated (oxidized) proteome. Finally, the proteomic data revealed a close interplay between abscisic signaling and SA elicitation of seed vigor.

Abstract
Protein extraction procedure and the reducing agent content (DTT, dithioerythritol, tributyl phosphine and tris (2-carboxyethyl) phosphine (TCEP)) of the sample and rehydration buffers were optimised for European beech leaves and roots and Norway spruce needles. Optimal extraction was achieved with 100 mM DTT for leaves and needles and a mixture of 2 mM TCEP and 50 mM DTT for roots. Performing IEF in buffers containing hydroxyethyldisulphide significantly enhanced the quality of separation for all proteins except for acidic root proteins, which were optimally focused in the same buffer as extracted.

Abstract
Polyploidization is a widespread process that results in the merger of two or more genomes in a common nucleus. To investigate modifications of gene expression occurring during allopolyploid formation, the Brassica napus allotetraploid model was chosen. Large-scale analyses of the proteome were conducted on two organs, the stem and root, so that >1600 polypeptides were screened. Comparative proteomics of synthetic B. napus and its homozygous diploid progenitors B. rapa and B. oleracea showed that very few proteins disappeared or appeared in the amphiploids (<1%), but a strikingly high number (25-38%) of polypeptides displayed quantitative nonadditive pattern. Nonstochastic gene expression repatterning was found since 99% of the detected variations were reproducible in four independently created amphiploids. More than 60% of proteins displayed a nonadditive pattern closer to the paternal parent B. rapa. Interspecific hybridization triggered the majority of the deviations (89%), whereas very few variations (approximately 3%) were associated with genome doubling and more significant alterations arose from selfing (approximately 9%). Some nonadditive proteins behaved similarly in both organs, while others exhibited contrasted behavior, showing rapid organ-specific regulation. B. napus formation was therefore correlated with immediate and directed nonadditive changes in gene expression, suggesting that the early steps of allopolyploidization repatterning are controlled by nonstochastic mechanisms.

Abstract
Botrytis cinerea is a phytopathogenic fungi causing disease in a number of important crops. It is considered a very complex species in which different populations seem to be adapted to different hosts. In order to characterize fungal virulence factors, a proteomic research was started. A protocol for protein extraction from mycelium tissue, with protein separation by 2-DE and MS analysis, was optimised as a first approach to defining the B. cinerea proteome. Around 400 spots were detected in 2-DE CBB-stained gels, covering the 5.4-7.7 pH and 14-85 kDa ranges. The averages of analytical and biological coefficients of variance for 64 independent spots were 16.1% and 37.5%, respectively. Twenty-two protein spots were identified by MALDI-TOF or ESI IT MS/MS, with some of them corresponding to forms of malate dehydrogenase and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase. Two more spots matched a cyclophilin and a protein with an unknown function.

Abstract
AIMS Divergicin M35 is a new class IIa bacteriocin produced by Carnobacterium divergicin M35. The bactericidal activity of this antimicrobial peptide was tested against a set of 11 strains of Listeria monocytogenes isolated from food. METHODS AND RESULTS The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined by the microdilution method. The strains tested displayed a different level of sensitivity to divergicin M35. L. monocytogenes LSD530, referred to as DivS strain, was the most sensitive and appeared to be inhibited by concentration of divergicin M35 below 0.13 microg ml(-1). The mutant resistant to divergicin M35, called DivM, was obtained from L. monocytogenes LSD530 (DivS) by gradually increasing the amounts of divergicin M35 until 1.3 microg ml(-1). Notably, DivM was stable after 50 generations. DivS parental strain was inhibited by a concentration of 4 microg ml(-1). L. monocytogenes LSD530 was shown to be resistant to divergicin M35 at 1.3 microg ml(-1). Remarkably, in the presence of divalent cations such as Ca(2+), Mg(2+) and Mn(2+), the lethality caused by divergicin M35 was reduced by 0.48, 0.54 and 0.63 log CFU per ml (after 18 h at 30 degrees C), respectively. The total DNA profiles of DivS and DivM were similar. DivS and DivM showed variable sensitivity to antibiotics. The two-dimensional (2-D) electrophoresis of cell wall proteins did not show any significant difference between DivS and DivM strains but their fatty acid composition showed a significant difference in C(16:0) content. CONCLUSIONS Resistance to divergicin M35 is likely ascribed to modification in cell wall fatty acid composition rather than protein modification. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study provides original results contributing to understanding of the resistance of L. monocytogenes to divergicin M35, a new class IIa bacteriocin.

Abstract
A lack of competence to form adventitious roots by cuttings or explants in vitro occurs routinely and is an obstacle for the clonal propagation and rapid fixation of elite genotypes. Adventitious rooting is known to be a quantitative genetic trait. We performed a proteomic analysis of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) mutants affected in their ability to develop adventitious roots in order to identify associated molecular markers that could be used to select genotypes for their rooting ability and/or to get further insight into the molecular mechanisms controlling adventitious rooting. Comparison of two-dimensional gel electrophoresis protein profiles resulted in the identification of 11 proteins whose abundance could be either positively or negatively correlated with endogenous auxin content, the number of adventitious root primordia, and/or the number of mature adventitious roots. One protein was negatively correlated only to the number of root primordia and two were negatively correlated to the number of mature adventitious roots. Two putative chaperone proteins were positively correlated only to the number of primordia, and, interestingly, three auxin-inducible GH3-like proteins were positively correlated with the number of mature adventitious roots. The others were correlated with more than one parameter. The 11 proteins are predicted to be involved in different biological processes, including the regulation of auxin homeostasis and light-associated metabolic pathways. The results identify regulatory pathways associated with adventitious root formation and represent valuable markers that might be used for the future identification of genotypes with better rooting abilities.
