Comparative analyses of the proteomes of leaves and flowers at various stages of development reveal organ‐specific functional differentiation of proteins in soybean

The functional differentiation of protein networks in individual organs and tissues of soybean at various developmental stages was investigated by proteomic approach. Protein extraction by Mg/NP‐40 buffer followed by alkaline phenol‐based method was optimized for proteomic analysis. Proteome analyses of leaves at various developmental stages showed 26 differentially expressed proteins, wherein proteins in translocon at the outer/inner envelope membrane of chloroplast protein‐transport machineries increased significantly at the first trifoliate. Immunoblot analysis showed chaperonin‐60 expressed abundantly in young leaves, whereas HSP 70 and ATP‐synthase β were constitutively expressed in all tissues. The net photosynthesis rate and chlorophyll content showed an age‐dependent correlation in leaves. These results suggest that proteins involved in carbon assimilation, folding and assembly, and energy may work synchronously and show a linear correlation to photosynthesis at developmental stages of leaves. Comparison of flower bud and flower proteome reveals 29 differentially expressed proteins, wherein proteins involved in mitochondrial protein transport and assembly, secondary metabolism, and pollen‐tube growth were up‐regulated during flower development. Together, these results suggest that during developmental stages, each type of tissue is associated with a specific group of proteins; wherein proteins involved in energy, sugar metabolism, and folding, assembly, and destination may play pivotal roles in the maturation process of each organ or tissue.
