Availability of the complete genomic sequence of the major African malaria vector, Accepted: December 27, 2004 Anopheles gambiae, allows discovery of such targets through experimental as well as computa- tional methods. In the female mosquito, the salivary gland tissue plays an important role in the maturation of the infective form of the malaria parasite. Therefore, we carried out a proteomic analysis of salivary glands from female An. gambiae mosquitoes. Salivary gland extracts were digested with trypsin using two complementary approaches and analyzed by LC-MS/MS. This led to identification of 69 unique proteins, 57 of which were novel. We carried out a functional annotation of all proteins identified in this study through a detailed bioinformatics analysis. Even though a number of cDNA and Edman degradation-based approaches to catalog transcripts and proteins from salivary glands of mosquitoes have been published previously, this is the first report describing the application of MS for characterization of the salivary gland proteome.

Although these genome projects provide insight into the gene and protein complements of a species including their evolutionary relationships, it remains challenging to determine gene regulatory behavior from genome sequence alone. It has also become common to produce “expression atlas” transcriptomic data sets. These atlases employ high-throughput transcript assays to survey an assortment of tissues, developmental states, and responses to stimuli that each may individually elicit or inhibit the transcription of genes.

Spirometra erinaceieuropaei casein kinase I (SeCKI) was analyzed using bioinformatical methods to predict its structure and function based on the deduced amino acid sequence from full length cDNA sequence of SeCKI gene with online sites and software programs. The longest open reading frame contains 448 amino acids, 50 kDa and theoretical pI of 4.73, with a complete tubulin domain, a SMART tubulin_C domain and a low complexity region. SeCKI has no signal sequence and no transmembrane domain, but is predicted to be located extracellularly. The secondary structure of SeCKI contains 12 α-helixes, 11 β-strands and 22 coils. SeCKI had 19 potential antigenic epitopes and 25 HLA-I restricted epitopes. Based on phylogenetic analysis of SeCKI sequence, S. erinaceieuropaei has the closest evolutionary status with Hymenolepis microstoma. Information from this study could provide important insights into the identification of diagnostic antigens and molecular targets of anti- sparganum drugs.

The genus-specific families (PLfams) from PATRIC have been used to observe conserved proteins associated to all species. Our results showed a large number of conserved proteins that are associated with the cellular division process. Was not observe in our results other proteins like FtsA and ZapA that interact with FtsZ. Our findings point that SepF overlaps the function of this proteins explored by molecular docking, protein-protein interaction and sequence analysis.

  • Physiological and Proteomic Analysis on Long-Term Drought Resistance of Cassava (Manihot Esculenta Crantz)
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Physiological and proteomic analysis on long-term drought resistance of cassava (Manihot Received: 24 April 2018 Accepted: 9 November 2018 esculenta Crantz) Published: xx xx xxxx Zhongying Shan 1, Xinglu Luo1,2, Maogui Wei1, Tangwei Huang1, Aziz Khan1 & Yanmei Zhu1 Drought stress is one of the potent abiotic stress limiting cassava (Manihot esculenta) yield globally, but studies addressing both physiological and proteomic responses that how cassava crops can adjust their growth and metabolism under drought conditions are lacking. Combining leaf physiological and proteomic characteristics strongly allied with drought tolerance should results in enhanced drought tolerance in cassava crop. Therefore, the aims of this study were to explore the plant physiological and proteomic mechanisms involved in drought adaptation in cassava. Xinxuan 048 (XX048) was exposed to well-watered control (CK, relative soil water content (RSWC) as 80 ± 5%), mild drought stress (LD, RSWC as 65 ± 5%), moderate drought stress (MD, RSWC as 50 ± 5%) and severe drought stress (SD, RSWC as 35 ± 5%) from 30 days after planting. Under drought stress conditions, cassava plant showed a substantial decline in plant height, stem diameter, leaf number, leaf water content, the ratio of free water content to bound water content of leaf (FW/BW), net photosynthetic rate (Pn), intercellular CO2 concentration (Ci), stomatal conductance (Gs) and transpiration rate (Tr) compared with well watered plants. However, compared with control, leaf water content, SPAD value, cell membrane permeability, malondialdehyde (MDA), soluble sugar, protein proline content SOD and CAT activity were at peak under drought stress. The proteomic analysis revealed that among 3 339 identifed proteins, drought stress increased and decreased abundance of 262 and 296 proteins, respectively, compared with control condition.
