Proteomic analysis reveals key proteins and phosphoproteins upon seed germination of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the oldest cultivated crops and the second most important food crop in the world. Seed germination is the key developmental process in plant growth and development, and poor germination directly affects plant growth

Seed Storage Proteins: Structures and Biosynthesis [PDF]
The Plant Cell, 1995 in them. The presence of these groups may allow the plant to maintain high levels of storage protein synthesis despite variations in sulfur availability. The strict tissue specificity of seed storage protein synthesis contrasts with that of tuber storage proteins, which may be synthesized in vegetative tissues under unusual conditions (for example, in ...

A role for seed storage proteins in Arabidopsis seed longevity. [PDF]
J Exp Bot, 2015 Proteomics approaches have been a useful tool for determining the biological roles and functions of individual proteins and identifying the molecular mechanisms that govern seed germination, vigour and viability in response to ageing. In this work the dry seed proteome of four Arabidopsis thaliana genotypes, that carry introgression fragments at the ...

A Single Seed Protein Extraction Protocol for Characterizing Brassica Seed Storage Proteins [PDF]
Agronomy, 2021 Rapeseed oil-extracted expeller cake mostly contains protein. Various approaches have been used to isolate, detect and measure proteins in rapeseeds, with a particular focus on seed storage proteins (SSPs).

Characterization of Seed Storage Proteins from Chickpea Using 2D Electrophoresis Coupled with Mass Spectrometry [PDF]
Biochemistry Research International, 2016 Proteomic analysis was employed to map the seed storage protein network in landrace and cultivated chickpea accessions. Protein extracts were separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D-GE) across a broad range 3.0–10.0 immobilized pH gradient ...

The dead seed coat functions as a long-term storage for active hydrolytic enzymes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 Seed development culminates in programmed cell death (PCD) and hardening of organs enclosing the embryo (e.g., pericarp, seed coat) providing essentially a physical shield for protection during storage in the soil.
