Abstract
Abundant proteins often cause problems in proteome study. Glutelin family proteins (hereafter referred to glutelin) are present in rice proteome sample as over-whelming constituents with very high abundance. In order to increase the number of identified proteins in rice proteome study, we developed a newly improved method for sample preparation through the removal of glutelin. When the protein samples from rice seed were extracted by the conventional trichloroacetic acid (TCA) extraction method, glutelin accounts for about 60% of total rice seed proteins in SDS gels. Using our new water extraction method, glutelin consists of only about 10% of total proteins. After analyzing on a two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE), 937 protein spots were detected using the conventional TCA extraction method. On the other hand, 1240 proteins could be seen using the new water extraction method. The selectivity for non-glutelin and less abundant protein by the water extraction method was also confirmed by ESI-Q/TOF mass spectrometry analysis. Thus, the new water extraction method developed here can be efficiently used to study the proteome analysis of rice storage seed.
