At the mRNA level, the expression of some genes changes during the 24 h period. To determine which proteins exhibited a rhythmic pattern of expression, proteomic profiles in maize seedling leaves were analyzed by high-throughput two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, combined with MALDI-TOF MS technology. Of the 464 proteins that were detected with silver staining in a pH range of 4-7, 17 (3.66%) showed clock rhythmicity in their abundance. These proteins belonged to diverse functional groups and proteins involved in photosynthesis and carbon metabolism were over-represented. These findings provide a new perspective on the relationship between the physiological functions of leaves and the clock rhythmic system.展开更多

The proteomes of the human hepatoma cell line BEL-7404 and the normal human liver cell line L-02 have been separated by high resolution two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) with immobilized pH gradient isoelectric focusing (IPG-IEF) in the first dimension and sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) in the second dimension (IPG-DALT). The resulting images have been analyzed using 2-D analysis software. Quantitative analysis reveals that 7 protein spots are detected only in hepatoma BEL-7404 cells, 14 only in L-02 cells, and 78 protein spots show significant fluctuation in quantity in both cell lines (P【0.01). These protein spots have been displayed on a proteome differential expression map. Analysis for the reproducibility of 2-DE indicates that the positional variability in the IEF dimension展开更多

In order to investigate specific proteins related to the pathogenic difference of this bacterium, comparative proteome analyses of Helicobacter pylori C1 (isolated from patients with gastric cancer) and G1 (isolated from patients with gastritis) were performed using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Four proteins (inorganic pyrophosphatase, 3-oxoadipate CoA-transferase subunit B, translation elongation factor, and aldo-keto reductase) were found only in Helicobacter pylori C1, and one protein (alkyl hydroperoxide reductase) was found in G1. Additionally, different isoelectric points (pI) of Hsp60 were observed from the two strains. Then we cloned and sequenced Hsp60 genes from forty-nine Helicobacter pylori isolated from gastric cancer and gastritis. Gene sequencing showed that one C→G single nucleotide polymorphism occurred in the 1399th nucleotide of Hsp60. These results indicate that pathogenic differences exist in various Helicobacter pylori isolated from Chinese patients.展开更多
