Abstract
Responses of plants to salinity stress and the development of salt tolerance are extremely complex. Proteomics is a powerful technique to identify proteins associated with a particular environmental or developmental signal. We employed a proteomic approach to further understand the mechanism of plant responses to salinity in a salt-tolerant (Afzal) and a salt-sensitive (Line 527) genotype of barley. At the 4-leaf stage, plants were exposed to 0 (control) or 300 mM NaCl. Salt treatment was maintained for 3 weeks. Total proteins of leaf 4 were extracted and separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. More than 500 protein spots were reproducibly detected. Of these, 44 spots showed significant changes to salt treatment compared to the control: 43 spots were upregulated and 1 spot was downregulated. Using MALDI-TOF-TOF MS, we identified 44 cellular proteins have been identified, which represented 18 different proteins and were classified into seven categories and a group with unknown biological function. These proteins were involved in various many cellular functions. Up regulation of proteins which involved in reactive oxygen species scavenging, signal transduction, protein processing and cell wall may increase plant adaptation to salt stress. The upregulation of the three of four antioxidant proteins (thioredoxin, methionine sulfoxide reductase and dehydroascorbate reductase) in susceptible genotype Line 527 suggesting a different tolerance mechanism (such as tissue tolerance) to tolerate a salinity condition in comparison with the salt sensitive genotype.
