  • Title: Plasma membrane proteome in Arabidopsis and rice.
    Author: Komatsu S.
    Journal: Proteomics; 2008 Oct; 8(19):4137-45. PubMed ID: 18763705.
    Abstract:
    Plant cells contain many membrane systems that are specially adapted to perform particular functions. In plant cells, the processing of signals that are involved in responses to biotic and abiotic stressors occurs in the plasma membrane. Therefore, characterization of the plasma membrane proteome can provide new insights into the functions of various plant membrane systems. Plant plasma membrane proteomics can also provide valuable information for plant-specific biological investigations. Despite recent advances in preparative and analytical techniques for plant plasma membrane proteins, the characterization of these proteins, particularly the hydrophobic ones, remains challenging. In this review, plant plasma membrane proteomics data compiled from the literature on Arabidopsis thaliana are presented. Initial attempts to determine the physiological significance of some proteins identified from plasma membrane proteomics in rice and other plants are also described from the results of our research.
