Proteomic dissection of rice cytoskeleton reveals the dominance of microtubule and microfilament proteins, and novel components in the cytoskeleton-bound polysome
The plant cytoskeleton persistently undergoes remodeling to achieve its roles in supporting cell division, differentiation, cell expansion and organelle transport. However, the links between cell metabolism and cytoskeletal networks, particularly how the proteinaceous components execute such processes remain poorly understood. We investigated the cytoskeletal proteome landscape of rice to gain better understanding of such events. Proteins were extracted from highly enriched cytoskeletal fraction of four-week-old rice seedlings, and the purity of the fraction was stringently monitored. A total of 2577 non-redundant proteins were identified using both gel-based and gel-free approaches, which constitutes the most comprehensive dataset, thus far, for plant cytoskeleton. The data set includes both microtubule and microfilament-associated proteins and their binding proteins comprising hypothetical as well as novel cytoskeletal proteins. Further, various in-silico analyses were performed, and the proteins were functionally classified on the basis of their gene ontology. The catalogued proteins were validated through their sequence analysis. Extensive comparative analysis of our dataset with the non-redundant set of cytoskeletal proteins across plant species affirms unique as well as overlapping candidates. Together, these findings unveil new insights of how cytoskeletons undergo dynamic remodeling in rice to drive seedling development processes in rapidly changing in planta environment.
