Abstract
Appropriate chelator may increase plant tolerance and accumulation for Cd in soil, but its molecular mechanism is unclear. In this experiment, the technology of isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) was used to compare the differential expression proteins (DEPs) and differential expression genes (DEGs) characteristics of poplar accumulating Cd combined with EDTA and/or EGTA. The results showed that the Cd concentrations, biomasses and activities of antioxidant enzymes of poplar were significantly increased in the treatments of chelator addition compared to the TCd. The number of co-intersecting specific proteins of TCd/CK, TCd+EDTA/TCd, TCd+EGTA/TCd and TCd+EDTA+EGTA/TCd was 49. Using the GO function and KEGG analysis, it was found that EDTA and EGTA might improve some main metabolic pathways of poplar leaves, which were involved in the enhancement of the expression of carbohydrate and energy metabolism-related proteins, regulation of cell energy metabolism, complementing and cooperating with each other in various ways, and dynamic regulation of energy metabolism. Particularly, chelator might induce the regulation of protein synthesis, folding and transport, and degradation of abnormal proteins in response to Cd toxicity. These results provided a theoretical basis for further elucidation of molecular mechanisms of poplar response to Cd stress.
