Evaluation of Six Protocols for Protein Extraction from Rice Young Panicles by
Two-Dimensional Electrophoresis
Author(s): Xiaoping Huang* and Zhou H
ABSTRACT
For most reported proteomics approaches, protein extraction and sample preparation are of crucial importance for optimal results. However, extraction of protein from crop plant tissues remains a great challenge due to low protein content and abundant secondary metabolites that prominently interfere with isoelectric focusing and subsequent proteomic analysis. Up until now, no attempts are focused on comparison of protein extraction procedures from rice young panicles. To establish a high-efficiency protein extraction protocol suitable for two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) in rice young panicles, six protocols for protein preparation were evaluated: (1) Phenol extraction; (2) Mg/ Nonidet P-40 (NP-40) extraction; (3) Tris-Base/acetone precipitation; (4) SDS extraction; (5) trichloroacetic acid (TCA)/acetone/phenol extraction; (6) TCA/acetone precipitation.
