Background: Skeletal muscle proteomics aims at global identification, cataloging and biochemical characterization of the entire protein complement of voluntary contractile tissues. In the lower vertebrates like fish, skeletal muscle contributes 34-48% of the total body weight and the muscle composition contributes strongly to the quality. Characterization of the muscle proteome is a key to many aspects of aquaculture, encompassing physiology, growth, food safety, seafood authentication and quality, traceability and shelf-life. Catla catla is a commercially important carp species contributing a major share to be freshwater aquaculture production in the Indian subcontinent; however, little omics information is available on this species.
Methods: In the present study, protein spots excised from 2-D gels of catla muscle proteome were identified th.. View More»
