Abstract

:
The relationship between chromosome deletion in wheat and protein expression were investigated using Chinese Spring and fine deletion line 3BS-8. Through 2-DE (2-D electrophoresis) analysis, no differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were found in leaf samples; however, 47 DEPs showed at least two-fold abundance variation (p < 0.05) in matured wheat grains and 21 spots were identified by tandem MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS. Among the identified spots, four were cultivar-specific, including three (spots B15, B16, and B21) in Chinese Spring and one in 3BS-8 (spot B10). Among variety-different DEPs between Chinese Spring and 3BS-8, most spots showed a higher express profile in CS; only four spots showed up-regulated expression tendency in 3BS-8. An interesting observation was that more than half of the identified protein spots were involved in storage proteins, of which 11 spots were identified as globulins. According to these results, we can presume that the encoded genes of protein spots B15, B16, and B21 were located on the chromosome segment deleted in 3BS-8.

Graphical Abstract

1. Introduction

As a worldwide food crop, bread wheat is a hexaploid species with three related diploid genomes denoted as A, B and D, and is composed of seven pairs of chromosomes in each genome. In the last few decades, extensive research has been conducted for the improvement of wheat yield and grain quality, mainly at the gene level [1]. However, wheat genomics and its application to crop improvement are lagging behind those of most other important crops. For example, map based cloning in wheat is still difficult due to its large genome size, high repetitive sequence content, polyploidy nature, genome complexity and lack of the reference sequence [2].
The polyploidy nature of the wheat genome provides considerable genetic buffering that allows aneuploids and deletions to remain viable and fertile, and the chromosome deletions are stable and transmitted to the offspring without further structural changes [3]. Sears [4] developed a series of ditelocentric lines in which each line has a chromosome arm deletion for a particular chromosome. He also developed a series of nullisomic-tetrasomic lines in which each line is missing one entire chromosome for a particular genome and has two extra chromosomes of one of its homologous chromosomes. Hundreds of disomic deletion lines have been used to localize genes and molecular markers to specific regions of the chromosome [58]. For example, β-amylase (β-Amy-A2) in common wheat was mapped cytologically on the long arm of chromosome 5A by using four 5Aq deletion lines [9]. In proteomics researches, the deletion lines are also widely used. Francs and Thiellement [10] found 185 protein spots variable between the euploid and 26 ditelosomic lines of Chinese Spring and located 35 structural genes on 17 chromosome arms. Payne et al. [11] studied the wheat endosperm proteins and determined the chromosome and chromosome-arm location of most components using several ditelosomic lines of Chinese Spring. Islam et al. [12] reported the changes in protein composition of wheat endosperm proteome between the euploid and the 39 ditelocentric lines. They identified some proteins and located the structural genes controlling these spots in the chromosome arms. In 2003, Islam et al. [13] investigated the changes in protein composition of wheat seed proteome to explore the relationship between fine chromosome deletion within 1B and protein expression in common wheat.
Chromosome (3B) of common wheat is also known to be the largest wheat chromosome with a size of 995 megabases [2]. In 2008, the bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC)–based integrated physical map of chromosome 3B had been published [2]. Although there has been a lot of research on gene locations for different chromosomes fragments [1014], the information does not necessarily match quantitatively or qualitatively at the protein level. Therefore, proteomic information of chromosome 3B is still lacking. In the present work, we performed for the first time a proteomic analysis using 3BS-8, one of the fine deletion lines of wheat chromosome 3B, to identify the specific location of genes controlling grain albumins and globulins. Our results provide valuable information for further studies on wheat genomics and proteomics as well as genetics and breeding.

2. Results and Discussion

2.1. Molecular Identification of 3B Fine Deletion Lines by PCR

By C-banding, Endo and Gill [6] detected 23 deletion lines on chromosome 3B with different breakage points from telomere to centromere. Among these, 3BS-8 is a fine deletion line derived from Chinese Spring (CS), which is characterized by a terminal deletion on the short arm of chromosome 3B. The locations of deleted chromosome segments in two 3B fine deletion lines were shown in Figure 1. A shorter and longer segment in the short arm of 3B chromosome was lost in 3BS-8 and 3BS-9, respectively. Microsatellite markers Xgwm493 and Xgwm566 are located distal to the breakpoint 3BS-8 and between 3BS-8 and 3BS-9, respectively [15].
In order to confirm the authenticity of the fine deletion line 3BS-8, microsatellite markers Xgwm493 and Xgwm566 were tested by using 3BS-9 as control (Figure 2). The results showed that Xgwm493 had a clear amplification of 200 bp in CS, but no amplified products in either 3BS-8 or 3BS-9. When primer gwm566 was used, a product of about 180 bp was amplified in both CS and 3BS-8, but no products in BS-9. These PCR results confirmed that the purity and authenticity of 3BS-8 as shown in Figure 1.

2.2. Morphological Characters of CS and Fine Deletion Line 3BS-8

Morphological observation during plant growth and development showed that there were no significant differences in CS and 3BS-8 except for an awn phonotype. The fine deletion line of 3BS-8 had a few awns at whereas the euploid CS had awnless spikes (Figure 3). Since both varieties were grown under the same environment, the deletion fragment in chromosome 3B in 3BS-8 could be responsive for the morphological differences.
Awns may play roles in the yield in wheat, especially under drought conditions and only a few genes were involved in the genetic control of this trait [16]. Previous research showed that five major genes (B1, B2, B3, A and Hd), alone or in combination, lead to the production of awn phenotype [17]. Three dominant awn-inhibitors B1, B2 and Hd were located on the long arm of chromosome 5A, 6B and the short arm of chromosome 4A, respectively [4,15,18]. Wheat genotypes containing one of these inhibitors (such as in Chinese Spring) are awnless [16]. In addition, some of the awn controlling genes are located on these corresponding chromosomes of common wheat. To date, no direct relations have been established between chromosome 3B and awn development. We speculate that the deletion fragment of chromosome 3B in 3BS-8 may contain regulatory factors that can activate the CS B2 gene expression.

2.3. Leaf Proteome Analysis of Chinese Spring and 3BS-8

A comparative proteomic analysis of leaf albumins and globulins from CS and 3BS-8 was carried out by quantitative 2-DE (Figure 4). In total, more than 200 protein spots were reproducibly detected on CBB stained gels, but no significant differences were found. This indicated that the lost segment of chromosome 3B in 3BS-8 has no or little effect on the expression of leaf proteins. In general, leaf proteins play important roles in the growth and development of wheat plants, and most of them belong to metabolic proteins controlled by housekeeping genes. Because the hexaploid wheat genome is highly buffered due to its polyploidy [3], and also because the loss of chromosome in 3BS-8 is a very small terminal fragments, the roles played by gene products on the deleted chromosome segment are likely to be compensated by those from other homeologous chromosomes, and consequently the growth and development of wheat plants can be maintained.

2.4. Proteome Analysis of Albumins and Globulins from Mature Seeds of CS and 3BS-8

Albumins and globulins from mature seeds of CS and 3BS-8 were extracted and isolated by 2-DE (Figure 5). Among more than 400 spots detected in the gels, 47 showed at least two-fold abundance variation (p < 0.05), and 21 were identified by MALDI-TOF-MS/MS as shown in Figure 5 and Table 1. Detailed information of matched peptides was listed in Table 2. Although a similarity of protein expression profiles were observed in both lines, significant differences were also present between them. Comparative proteomic analysis demonstrated that four protein spots showed to be genotype-specific among the 21 identified differentially expressed proteins (DEPs), including triticin (spot B15), one predicted protein with unknown function (spot B16), and 0.19 dimeric alpha-amylase inhibitor (spot B21) that only appeared in Chinese Spring and one (spot B10—glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase) in 3BS-8 only. According to these results, the coding genes of protein spots B15, B16 and B21 were located on the deleted chromosome segment of 3BS-8. For the other 17 DEPs between Chinese Spring and 3BS-8, 13 showed a higher express in CS, only four protein spots (spot 25-HMW glutenin subunit Dty10, 280-Avenin-like b1, 302-globulin 1 and 394-globulin 3) showed up-regulated expression in 3BS-8. Considering the relatively higher expression of most DEPs in CS and wheat being an allopolyploidy species, the expression of metabolic DEPs might be controlled by multiple genes that are located across the homeologous chromosomal regions. This indicates that a small chromosome fragment deletion will most likely only lead to expression decreasing of most DEPs. This explains why only a few DEPs can be located on the deleted segment in 3BS-8.
As shown in Figure 6, the identified proteins were classified into four groups according to their functions, viz. storage proteins (62.9%), carbon metabolism (14.29%), detoxification, defense (14.29%) and unknown proteins including hypothetical or putative proteins with unknown functions (9.52%). An interesting observation was that 11 protein spots were identified as globulins, including three isoforms of one globulin which had seven spots (36, 38, 43, 46, 48, 394 and 396) located at different positions on the same gel. These isoforms might represent post-translationally modified forms of the same protein, such as phosphorylated and glycosylated forms [19,20]. Wheat seed proteins can induce a number of immune-mediated diseases such as Baker’s asthma in predisposed individuals [21]. Globulin-3, the Triticum aestivum (wheat) storage protein WP5212, was identified as the first candidate wheat protein associated with the development of type 1 diabetes (T1D) [22]. Gomez et al. [23] isolated and partially characterized a group of endosperm globulins in the short arms of chromosomes 1A, 1B and 1 D. Three unique wheat globulin genes, Glo-3A, Glo3-B and Glo-3C, were identified by screening a Triticum aestivum BAC genomic library [24]. Because the deletion chromosomes are stable and transmitted to the offspring [3], the specific chromosomal locations of genes identified in our study can be used as protein markers in genetics and breeding studies. The deletion line 3BS-8 may also be used as useful genetic stock for study wheat related diabetes-resistant mechanisms since the fine part deletion of chromosome 3B significantly affects the expressions of globulins related to diabetes.

3. Experimental Section

3.1. Plant Materials

Common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cv. Chinese Spring (CS) and two deletion lines (3BS-8 and 3BS-9), were used in this study. Both lines were grown in a climate controlled glasshouse with the maximum daytime temperature of 24 °C and minimum night time temperature of 15 °C during growth until maturity. Samples used for 2-DE analysis were collected from three replicates and stored at −70 °C prior to analysis. Half leaves from the first to the tenth leaf of the plant were combined and frozen at liquid nitrogen immediately after collecting for extraction of proteins. Mature grain samples were collected from each middle spike of two lines.

3.2. DNA Extraction and PCR Amplification

DNA sample was extracted from the wheat leaves as the following procedures: Fresh leaves of one to two centimeters in length were vortexed for 20 min with 300 μL DNA extration buffer I, then centrifuged at 13,000 rpm for 10 min at 4 °C. After adding 10 μL DNA extraction buffer II into 90 μL supernatant, the mixture was water bathed at 65 °C for 1 h, then centrifuged at 13,000 rpm for 2 min. Gently mixing 50 μL supernatant and 100 μL ethanal, then centrifuge the mixture at 13,000 rpm for 5 min. The pellet was dried at room temperature over night, then resolved in 100 μL 0.1 × TE buffer for another 12 h.
According chromosome locations (Figure 1), specific primers were selected and their sequences are listed in Table 3.
PCR amplification was performed in a total volume of 10 μL containing gDNA 50 ng, 3.0 μL Cresol Red, 0.25 μL MgCl2, 1 μL 10 × GC buffer I, 0.5 μM of each primer, 0.4 μL dNTP, 0.08 μL Taq polymerase (TaKaRa) and 2.52 μL ddH2O. The reaction was carried out according to the following procedure: For gwm493: pre-denaturation at 94 °C for 3 min, 35 cycles of 94 °C for 30 s, 60 °C for 30 s, and 72 °C for 1 min, then followed by a final cycle of extension at 72 °C for 5 min; For gwm566: pre-denaturation at 94 °C for 3 min, 8 cycles of 94 °C for 30 s, 55 °C for 30 s, 72 °C for 1 min, the annealing temperature was dropped by 1 °C every cycle; then another 25 cycles of 94 °C for 30 s, 47 °C for 30 s, and 72 °C for 1 min, then followed by a final cycle of extension at 72 °C for 5 min.

3.3. Protein Preparation, 2-DE and Image Analysis

Albumins and globins were extracted from 500 mg mature grain sample according to Gao et al. [25]. As for the extraction of leaf proteins, 400 mg sample was ground to a fine powder in liquid nitrogen using a mortar and pestle. After extracting with 3 mL extraction buffer (5 M urea, 2 M thiourea, 2% SDS, 2% Triton-114, 2 gμ/μL DTT), the suspension was incubated at 4 °C for 2 h with intermittent mixing and then centrifuged at 13, 000 rpm for 15 min at 4 °C. Three fold volumes of chilled (−20 °C) acetone were added to the supernatant and stored at −20°C overnight to precipitate the proteins, followed by centrifuging for 15 min at 13,000 rpm at 4 °C. The resultant precipitate was resuspended by 90% ethanol, kept for 5 min at room temperature, then centrifuged at 8000 rpm at 4 °C for 10 min. The resultant precipitate was washed with 1 mL ethanol for two times and with chilled (−20 °C) acetone containing 0.07% β-mercaptoethanol (ME) for three times, and was centrifuged at 8000 rpm at 4 °C for 5 min between rinses. The fluid was removed and the pellet was completely dried in a SpeedVac, then lysised with 300 μL buffer (7M urea, 2M thiourea, 4% CHAPS (3-[(3-Cholanidopropyl) dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate) for 4 h. The protein samples were then centrifuged at 13,000 rpm for 10 min and the protein concentrations were determined using the Bio-Rad protein assay kit (Bio-Rad, Piscataway, NJ, USA) with bovine serum albumin as a calibration standard. Two-DE was performed according to Ge et al. [26]: 600 μg of protein was loaded onto analytical and preparative gels. All samples were run in triplicate to obtain statistically reliable results.
After electrophoresis, proteins were visualized by colloidal Coomassie Brilliant Blue (CBB) staining according to [26]. The 2-DE images were scanned by GS-800™ Calibrated Densitometer (BIO-RAD) and statistical analysis was performed by the ImageMaster 2D Platinum software (GE Healthcare) [27]. Determined by Student’s t test (abundance variation at least twofold, p < 0.05), protein spots of interest on the gels were selected for further analysis from those that showed statistically significant changes between samples.

3.4. Protein Identification through Mass Spectrometry

According to [26], protein spots with differential expression patterns were manually excised from gels, and then analyzed with a MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer (SM, Shimadzu Biotech, Kyoto, Japan). Unidentified spots were further analyzed using a 4800 Plus MALDI TOF/TOF™ Analyzer (Applied Biosystems, USA). All MS and MS/MS spectra were searched in the NCBI database Viridiplantae (900091) and Triticum (16682) MASCOT program (using GPS Explorer™ software version 2.0) (Applied Biosystems). The peptide tolerance was 100 ppm and fragment mass tolerance was 0.4 Da. One missed cleavage was allowed, and carbamidomethyl (Cys) and oxidation (Met) were specified as variable modifications. MASCOT scores more than 65 (p < 0. 05) were accepted.

4. Conclusions

Morphology observation demonstrated that the loss of very small terminal fragments on chromosome 3B of Chinese Spring affects the awn phenotype. Using Chinese Spring and fine deletion line 3BS-8, the relationship between chromosome deletion and protein expression was investigated in the present work. Two-DE analysis discovered 21 DEPs between the two genotypes, but only three proteins (triticin, one predicted protein with unknown function and 0.19 dimeric alpha-amylase inhibitor) can be assigned to the short arm of chromosome 3B. The deletion fragment of chromosome 3B can significantly affect the expression of seed globulins. The functional proteins on the deleted chromosome segment could be compensated by those from other chromosomes due to highly buffered wheat genome and polyploidy.
