Proteomic profile of tepary bean seed storage proteins in germination with low water potential

Abstract Background Tepary bean (Phaseolus acutifolius A. Gray) is one of the five species domesticated from the genus Phaseolus with genetic resistance to biotic and abiotic stress. To understand the mechanisms underlying drought responses in seed storage proteins germinated on water and polyethyle...

description Abstract Background Tepary bean (Phaseolus acutifolius A. Gray) is one of the five species domesticated from the genus Phaseolus with genetic resistance to biotic and abiotic stress. To understand the mechanisms underlying drought responses in seed storage proteins germinated on water and polyethylene glycol (PEG-6000) at -0.49 MPa, we used a proteomics approach to identify potential molecular target proteins associated with the low water potential stress response. Methods Storage proteins from cotyledons of Tepary bean seeds germinated at 24, 48 and 72 h on water and PEG-6000 at -0.49 MPa were analyzed by one-dimensional electrophoresis (DE) with 2-DE analysis and shotgun mass spectrometry. Using computational database searching and bioinformatics analyses, we performed Gene Ontology (GO) and protein interactome (functional protein association network) String analyses. Results Comparative analysis showed that the effect of PEG-6000 on root growth was parallel to that on germination. Based on the SDS‒PAGE protein banding patterns and 2-DE analysis, ten differentially abundant seed storage proteins showed changes in storage proteins, principally in the phaseolin and lectin fractions. We found many proteins that are recognized as drought stress-responsive proteins, and several of them are predicted to be intrinsically related to abiotic stress. The shotgun analysis searched against UniProt’s legume database, and Gene Ontology (GO) analysis indicated that most of the seed proteins were cytosolic, with catalytic activity and associated with carbohydrate metabolism. The protein‒protein interaction networks from functional enrichment analysis showed that phytohemagglutinin interacts with proteins associated with the degradation of storage proteins in the cotyledons of common bean during germination. Conclusion These findings suggest that Tepary bean seed proteins provide valuable information with the potential to be used in genetic improvement and are part of the drought stress response, making our approach a potentially useful strategy for discovering novel drought-responsive proteins in other plant models.
