Abstract
Soybean (Glycine max) is an essential economic crop that provides vegetative oil and protein for humans, worldwide. Increasing soybean yield as well as improving seed quality is of great importance. Seed weight/size, oil and protein content are the three major traits determining seed quality, and seed weight also influences soybean yield. In recent years, the availability of soybean omics data and the development of related techniques have paved the way for better research on soybean functional genomics, providing a comprehensive understanding of gene functions. This review summarizes the regulatory genes that influence seed size/weight, oil content and protein content in soybean. We also provided a general overview of the pleiotropic effect for the genes in controlling seed traits and environmental stresses. Ultimately, it is expected that this review will be beneficial in breeding improved traits in soybean.

Advances in Plant Metabolomics and Its Applications in Stress and Single-Cell Biology. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23136985.

Abstract
In the past two decades, the post-genomic era envisaged high-throughput technologies, resulting in more species with available genome sequences. In-depth multi-omics approaches have evolved to integrate cellular processes at various levels into a systems biology knowledge base. Metabolomics plays a crucial role in molecular networking to bridge the gaps between genotypes and phenotypes. However, the greater complexity of metabolites with diverse chemical and physical properties has limited the advances in plant metabolomics. For several years, applications of liquid/gas chromatography (LC/GC)-mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) have been constantly developed. Recently, ion mobility spectrometry (IMS)-MS has shown utility in resolving isomeric and isobaric metabolites. Both MS and NMR combined metabolomics significantly increased the identification and quantification of metabolites in an untargeted and targeted manner. Thus, hyphenated metabolomics tools will narrow the gap between the number of metabolite features and the identified metabolites. Metabolites change in response to environmental conditions, including biotic and abiotic stress factors. The spatial distribution of metabolites across different organs, tissues, cells and cellular compartments is a trending research area in metabolomics. Herein, we review recent technological advancements in metabolomics and their applications in understanding plant stress biology and different levels of spatial organization. In addition, we discuss the opportunities and challenges in multiple stress interactions, multi-omics, and single-cell metabolomics.

Abstract
In eukaryotic organisms, subcellular protein location is critical in defining protein function and understanding sub-functionalization of gene families. Some proteins have defined locations, whereas others have low specificity targeting and complex accumulation patterns. There is no single approach that can be considered entirely adequate for defining the in vivo location of all proteins. By combining evidence from different approaches, the strengths and weaknesses of different technologies can be estimated, and a location consensus can be built. The Subcellular Location of Proteins in Arabidopsis database ( http://suba.live/ ) combines experimental data sets that have been reported in the literature and is analyzing these data to provide useful tools for biologists to interpret their own data. Foremost among these tools is a consensus classifier (SUBAcon) that computes a proposed location for all proteins based on balancing the experimental evidence and predictions. Further tools analyze sets of proteins to define the abundance of cellular structures. Extending these types of resources to plant crop species has been complex due to polyploidy, gene family expansion and contraction, and the movement of pathways and processes within cells across the plant kingdom. The Crop Proteins of Annotated Location database ( http://crop-pal.org/ ) has developed a range of subcellular location resources including a species-specific voting consensus for 12 plant crop species that offers collated evidence and filters for current crop proteomes akin to SUBA. Comprehensive cross-species comparison of these data shows that the sub-cellular proteomes (subcellulomes) depend only to some degree on phylogenetic relationship and are more conserved in major biosynthesis than in metabolic pathways. Together SUBA and cropPAL created reference subcellulomes for plants as well as species-specific subcellulomes for cross-species data mining. These data collections are increasingly used by the research community to provide a subcellular protein location layer, inform models of compartmented cell function and protein-protein interaction network, guide future molecular crop breeding strategies, or simply answer a specific question-where is my protein of interest inside the cell?

Abstract
Soybean is one of the most important oilseed and fodder crops. Benefiting from the efforts of soybean breeders and the development of breeding technology, large number of germplasm has been generated over the last 100 years. Nevertheless, soybean breeding needs to be accelerated to meet the needs of a growing world population, to promote sustainable agriculture and to address future environmental changes. The acceleration is highly reliant on the discoveries in gene functional studies. The release of the reference soybean genome in 2010 has significantly facilitated the advance in soybean functional genomics. Here, we review the research progress in soybean omics (genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics and proteomics), germplasm development (germplasm resources and databases), gene discovery (genes that are responsible for important soybean traits including yield, flowering and maturity, seed quality, stress resistance, nodulation and domestication) and transformation technology during the past decade. At the end, we also briefly discuss current challenges and future directions.

Isotopically Dimethyl Labeling-Based Quantitative Proteomic Analysis of Phosphoproteomes of Soybean Cultivars. Biomolecules 2021; 11:1218. [PMID: 34439883 PMCID: PMC8393417 DOI: 10.3390/biom11081218] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2021] [Revised: 08/05/2021] [Accepted: 08/06/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Isotopically dimethyl labeling was applied in a quantitative post-translational modification (PTM) proteomic study of phosphoproteomic changes in the drought responses of two contrasting soybean cultivars. A total of 9457 phosphopeptides were identified subsequently, corresponding to 4571 phosphoprotein groups and 3889 leading phosphoproteins, which contained nine kinase families consisting of 279 kinases. These phosphoproteins contained a total of 8087 phosphosites, 6106 of which were newly identified and constituted 54% of the current soybean phosphosite repository. These phosphosites were converted into the highly conserved kinase docking sites by bioinformatics analysis, which predicted six kinase families that matched with those newly found nine kinase families. The overly post-translationally modified proteins (OPP) occupies 2.1% of these leading phosphoproteins. Most of these OPPs are photoreceptors, mRNA-, histone-, and phospholipid-binding proteins, as well as protein kinase/phosphatases. The subgroup population distribution of phosphoproteins over the number of phosphosites of phosphoproteins follows the exponential decay law, Y = 4.13e-0.098X - 0.04. Out of 218 significantly regulated unique phosphopeptide groups, 188 phosphoproteins were regulated by the drought-tolerant cultivar under the water loss condition. These significantly regulated phosphoproteins (SRP) are mainly enriched in the biological functions of water transport and deprivation, methionine metabolic processes, photosynthesis/light reaction, and response to cadmium ion, osmotic stress, and ABA response. Seventeen and 15 SRPs are protein kinases/phosphatases and transcription factors, respectively. Bioinformatics analysis again revealed that three members of the calcium dependent protein kinase family (CAMK family), GmSRK2I, GmCIPK25, and GmAKINβ1 kinases, constitute a phosphor-relay-mediated signal transduction network, regulating ion channel activities and many nuclear events in this drought-tolerant cultivar, which presumably contributes to the development of the soybean drought tolerance under water deprivation process.

Abstract
For centuries, crop plants have represented the basis of the daily human diet. Among them, cereals and legumes, accumulating oils, proteins, and carbohydrates in their seeds, distinctly dominate modern agriculture, thus play an essential role in food industry and fuel production. Therefore, seeds of crop plants are intensively studied by food chemists, biologists, biochemists, and nutritional physiologists. Accordingly, seed development and germination as well as age- and stress-related alterations in seed vigor, longevity, nutritional value, and safety can be addressed by a broad panel of analytical, biochemical, and physiological methods. Currently, functional genomics is one of the most powerful tools, giving direct access to characteristic metabolic changes accompanying plant development, senescence, and response to biotic or abiotic stress. Among individual post-genomic methodological platforms, proteomics represents one of the most effective ones, giving access to cellular metabolism at the level of proteins. During the recent decades, multiple methodological advances were introduced in different branches of life science, although only some of them were established in seed proteomics so far. Therefore, here we discuss main methodological approaches already employed in seed proteomics, as well as those still waiting for implementation in this field of plant research, with a special emphasis on sample preparation, data acquisition, processing, and post-processing. Thereby, the overall goal of this review is to bring new methodologies emerging in different areas of proteomics research (clinical, food, ecological, microbial, and plant proteomics) to the broad society of seed biologists.

Abstract
Agriculture faces increasing demand for yield, higher plant-derived protein content and diversity while facing pressure to achieve sustainability. Although the genomes of many of the important crops have been sequenced, the subcellular locations of most of the encoded proteins remain unknown or are only predicted. Protein subcellular location is crucial in determining protein function and accumulation patterns in plants, and is critical for targeted improvements in yield and resilience. Integrating location data from over 800 studies for 12 major crop species into the cropPAL2020 data collection showed that while >80% of proteins in most species are not localised by experimental data, combining species data or integrating predictions can help bridge gaps at similar accuracy. The collation and integration of over 61 505 experimental localisations and more than 6 million predictions showed that the relative sizes of the protein catalogues located in different subcellular compartments are comparable between crops and Arabidopsis. A comprehensive cross-species comparison showed that between 50% and 80% of the subcellulomes are conserved across species and that conservation only depends to some degree on the phylogenetic relationship of the species. Protein subcellular locations in major biosynthesis pathways are more often conserved than in metabolic pathways. Underlying this conservation is a clear potential for subcellular diversity in protein location between species by means of gene duplication and alternative splicing. Our cropPAL data set and search platform (https://crop-pal.org) provide a comprehensive subcellular proteomics resource to drive compartmentation-based approaches for improving yield, protein composition and resilience in future crop varieties.

Abstract
Soybean, which is rich in protein and oil as well as phytochemicals, is cultivated in several climatic zones. However, its growth is markedly decreased by flooding stress, which is caused by climate change. Proteomic techniques were used for understanding the flood-response and -tolerant mechanisms in soybean. Subcellular proteomics has potential to elucidate localized cellular responses and investigate communications among subcellular components during plant growth and under stress stimuli. Furthermore, post-translational modifications play important roles in stress response and tolerance to flooding stress. Although many flood-response mechanisms have been reported, flood-tolerant mechanisms have not been fully clarified for soybean because of limitations in germplasm with flooding tolerance. This review provides an update on current biochemical and molecular networks involved in soybean tolerance against flooding stress, as well as recent developments in the area of functional genomics in terms of developing flood-tolerant soybeans. This work will expedite marker-assisted genetic enhancement studies in crops for developing high-yielding stress-tolerant lines or varieties under abiotic stress.

Abstract
Fish intestine is an important constituent of the mucosal immune system. The gut and gut-associated lymphoid tissue construct a local immune environment. A Shewanella algae strain was previously reported to be a pathogen causing ascitic disease accompanied with intestinal inflammation in Cynoglossus semilaevis. This study aimed to investigate the intestine immune response in C. semilaevis to S. algae infection at the protein level. Two-dimensional electrophoresis coupled with mass spectrometry proteomics was utilized to compare protein expression in the intestines from normal and S. algae-infected C. semilaevis. A total of 70 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), consisting of 16 upregulated and 54 downregulated proteins, were identified in the intestine tissue of C. Semilaevis. These protein expression changes were further validated using western blot analysis and quantitative real-time PCR. Gene ontology enrichment analysis showed that these 70 DEPs could be assigned across three categories: "cellular components", "molecular function", and "biological process". Forty-one DEPs (six up-regulated and 35 down-regulated proteins) related to metabolic processes were identified. In addition, 20 DEPs (eight up-regulated and 12 down-regulated proteins) related to stress and immune responses were identified. A protein-protein interaction network generated by the STRING (Search Tool for the Retrieval of Interacting Genes/protein) revealed that 30 DEPs interacted with one another to form an integrated network. Among them, 29 DEPs were related to stress, immune, and metabolism processes. In the network, some of the immune related proteins (C9, FGB, KNG1, apolipoprotein A-IV-like, and PDIA3) were up-regulated and most DEPs involved in metabolism processes were down-regulated. These results indicate that the immune defense response of the intestine was activated and the intestinal function associated with metabolism processes was disturbed. This study provides valuable information for further research into the functions of these DEPs in fish.

Jin X, Zhu L, Tao C, Xie Q, Xu X, Chang L, Tan Y, Ding G, Li H, Wang X. An improved protein extraction method applied to cotton leaves is compatible with 2-DE and LC-MS. BMC Genomics 2019; 20:285. [PMID: 30975097 PMCID: PMC6458646 DOI: 10.1186/s12864-019-5658-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2019] [Accepted: 03/29/2019] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) are widely used in plant proteomics research. However, these two techniques cannot be simultaneously satisfied by traditional protein extraction methods when investigate cotton leaf proteome. Results Here, we evaluated the efficiency of three different protein extraction methods for 2-DE and LC-MS/MS analyses of total proteins obtained from cotton leaves. The protein yield of the borax/PVPP/phenol (BPP) method (0.14%) was significantly lower than the yields of the trichloroacetic acid/acetone (TCA) precipitation method (1.42%) and optimized TCA combined with BPP (TCA-B) method (0.47%). The BPP method was failed to get a clear 2-DE electrophoretogram. Fifty pairs of protein spots were randomly selected from the 2-DE gels of TCA- and TCA-B-extracted proteins for identification by MALDI TOF/TOF, and the results of 42 pairs were consistent. High-throughput proteomic analysis showed that 6339, 9282 and 9697 unique proteins were identified from the total cotton leaf proteins extracted by the TCA, BPP and TCA-B methods, respectively. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis revealed that the proteins specifically identified by TCA method were primarily distributed in the plasma membrane, while BPP and TCA-B methods specific proteins distributed in the cytosol, indicating the sub-cellular preference of different protein extraction methods. Further, ATP-dependent zinc metalloprotease FTSH 8 could be observed in the 2-DE gels of TCA and TCA-B methods, and could only be detected in the LC-MS/MS results of the BPP and TCA-B methods, showing that TCA-B method might be the optimized choice for both 2-DE and LC-MS/MS. Conclusion Our data provided an improved TCA-B method for protein extraction that is compatible with 2-DE and LC-MS/MS for cotton leaves and similar plant tissues which is rich in polysaccharides and polyphenols.

Identification of transposons near predicted lncRNA and mRNA pools of Prunus mume using an integrative transposable element database constructed from Rosaceae plant genomes. Mol Genet Genomics 2018; 293:1301-1316.

Abstract
This study focused on the construction of a database of transposable elements (TEs) from Rosaceae plants, the third most economically important plant family in temperate regions, and its transcriptomics applications. The evolutionary effects of TEs on gene regulation have been explored, and TE insertions can be the molecular bases of changes in gene structure and function. However, a specific Rosaceae plant TE database (RPTEdb) is lacking. The genomes of several Rosaceae plants have been sequenced, providing the opportunity to mine TE data at a whole-genome level. Therefore, we constructed the RPTEdb, a collective and comprehensive database of 19,596 annotated TEs in the genomes of Rosaceae plants using previously described identification and annotation methods and published genome sequences. The user-friendly web-based database provides access to research tools through hyperlinks, including Browse, TE tree, tools, JBrowse, and search sections, and through the inputting of sequences on the main webpage. Next, we performed one advanced application in which TEs near predicted long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) and mRNA domains within white and red petal-tissue transcriptomes of Prunus mume 'Fuban Tiaozhi' were identified, revealing 16 TEs that overlapped or were near 16 differentially expressed lncRNA domains, and 54 TEs that overlapped or were near 54 differentially expressed mRNA domains, and the TEs' possible functions were also discussed. We believe that the RPTEdb will contribute to the understanding of TE roles in the structural, functional and evolutionary dynamics of Rosaceae plant genomes.

Abstract
Proteomics data processing, annotation, and analysis can often lead to major hurdles in large-scale high-throughput bottom-up proteomics experiments. Given the recent rise in protein-based big datasets being generated, efforts in in silico tool development occurrences have had an unprecedented increase; so much so, that it has become increasingly difficult to keep track of all the advances in a particular academic year. However, these tools benefit the plant proteomics community in circumventing critical issues in data analysis and visualization, as these continually developing open-source and community-developed tools hold potential in future research efforts. This review will aim to introduce and summarize more than 50 software tools, databases, and resources developed and published during 2016-2017 under the following categories: tools for data pre-processing and analysis, statistical analysis tools, peptide identification tools, databases and spectral libraries, and data visualization and interpretation tools. Intended for a well-informed proteomics community, finally, efforts in data archiving and validation datasets for the community will be discussed as well. Additionally, the author delineates the current and most commonly used proteomics tools in order to introduce novice readers to this -omics discovery platform.

Abstract
Soybean, which is rich in protein and oil, is cultivated in several climatic zones; however, its growth is markedly decreased by flooding. Proteomics is a useful tool for understanding the flooding-response mechanism in soybean. Subcellular proteomics has the potential to elucidate localized cellular responses and investigate communications among subcellular components during plant growth and during stress. Under flooding, proteins related to signaling, stress and the antioxidative system are increased in the plasma membrane; scavenging enzymes for reactive-oxygen species are suppressed in the cell wall; protein translation is suppressed through inhibition of proteins related to preribosome biogenesis and mRNA processing in the nucleus; levels of proteins involved in the electron transport chain are reduced in the mitochondrion; and levels of proteins related to protein folding are decreased in the endoplasmic reticulum. This review discusses the advantages of a gel-free/label-free proteomic technique and methods of plant subcellular purification. It also summarizes cellular events in soybean under flooding and discusses future prospects for generation of flooding-tolerant soybean.

Abstract
Minerals or trace elements in small amount are essential nutrients for every plant, but when the internal concentration exceeds the threshold, these essential elements do create phytotoxicity. Plant responses to elemental stresses are very common due to different anthropogenic activities; however it is a complex phenomenon with individual characteristics for various species. To cope up with the situation, a plant produces a group of strategies both in proteomic and genomic level to overcome it. Controlling the metal stress is known to activate a multigene response resulting in the changes in various proteins, which directly affects almost all biological processes in a living cell. Therefore, proteomic and genomic approaches can be useful for elucidating the molecular responses under metal stress. For this, it is tried to provide the latest knowledge and techniques used in proteomic and genomic study during nutritional stress and is represented here in review form.
