Herb Phyllanthus niruri (P. niruri) is known to have various pharmacological functions including anticancer, antibacterial, antioxidant, anti-hypertensive and also anti-diabetic properties.  In this research, the proteomic part of P. niruri was studied to determine the bioactive peptides that responsible for specific characteristics. Total soluble proteins from different plant parts of freshly collected P. niruri were extracted using TCA/acetone method and then quantified using Bradford assay. Fruits part was found to have a significantly higher amount of proteins (4.91µg/µl + 0.21) compared to leaves (4.18µg/µl + 0.15). To determine the quality of proteins in the crude extract, SDS-Page was carried out which separates proteins in the basis of molecular weight. Proteins extracted from leaves were widely distributed between the range of 3.5 kDa to 160 kDA. Meanwhile, proteins in fruits mainly distributed within the range of 15 kDa to 80 kDa. The most highly expressed protein band was found in fruit, located in between 30 to 40 kDa. The protein extracts were then further analyzed based on the molecular weight and isoelectric points using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2D-GE) approach. Based on the profile pattern obtained from 2D-GE analysis, protein extract from fruits seems to express more protein spots compared to protein extract from leaves. Protein spots from fruit are seen to be intensely resolved within pH 4 to 10 at molecular weight between 10 kDa to 80 kDa. On the other hand, protein spots from leaves were moderately resolved at pH 4 to 10 at molecular weight within 10 kDa to 50 kDa.

Introduction: Chicken meat is a source of protein in the human diet. Protein content and values define the quality of chicken meat. This research aimed to analyze variations of protein profiles in chicken breast muscles from different slaughtering houses by using proteomic strategies. Methods: Total proteins of chicken breast muscles from three different slaughtering houses (Sample A, Sample B and Sample C) were extracted and quantified by using Bradford assay. Then, the proteins were separated by SDS-PAGE to monitor the quality of extracted proteins. Protein profiles in different samples were compared by 2D-GE analysis. Results: The most highly expressed protein band was located between the molecular size of 37-50 kD in all samples and it was expected to be betaactin. While resolved in 2D-PAGE, differences in protein expression were observed between samples. There were three spots expressed with highest intensity in Sample B compared to others. The protein spot detected at pH 5.28 and the size range between 50- 75 kD was predicted to be NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR), at pH 6.45 and molecular weight between 37-50 kD was expected to be creatine kinase M-type (M-CK) while at pH 6.78 and molecular size nearly 25 kD was expected to be αB-crystallin. Conclusions: It can be mentioned that these proteins could play a vital role in mechanisms that contribute to the poor quality of chicken meat.

Abstract Methionine-rich proteins (MRP) from seeds of different species of the Genus Arachis were isolated and analyzed by gel electrophoresis to detect possible compositional differences. One-dimensional gel electrophoretic analysis showed presence of quantitative and qualitative variations among the MRP-fractions. Following two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, the MRP-fractions were found to contain three groups of polypeptides with apparent molecular weights of approximately 21,000; 19,000 and 16,000, and isoelectric points between 5.1 and 5.8. Within each molecular weight group the number of polypeptides varied between 1 and 3.

Abstract: Candidiasis or infection that is caused by Candida has become a new list of the therapeutical problems recently. The difficulties in diagnosing are the main cause of the unsatisfactory results from common therapies and diagnosis methods. This has urged researchers to find alternative ways in candidiasis diagnosis such as serology-based detection using antigen or antibody development. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of protein derived from Candida albicans biofilm as bioreceptor on candidiasis immunoassay through Dot Blot method. The research method used descriptive method with the following stages: (1) preparation of Candida albicans biofilm (2) extraction of Candida albicans protein through enzymatic and mechanical methods, (3) determination of protein molecular weight with SDS-PAGE (4) production of polyclonal anti- candida and (5) analysis of protein extract as bioreeceptor on dot blot. Profile of biofilm proteins on SDS-PAGE analysis were shown on molecular weight 27,42; 29,89; 38,10; 44,90; 48,75; 52,92; 55,14; 59,86; 70,56; 87,36; 102,54;115,05; 130,14;143,14;181,53 kD. There were differences in the intensity of dots in the control group (44070) and treatment groups (63170.5). It is noticeable that biofilm protein extract of C. albicans can be used for induction of anti-Candida polyclonal antibody production as the potential candidate of bioreceptor in candidiasis immunoassay. Keywords: SDS-PAGE, polyclonal antibody, immunoassay, dot blot, biofilm

<em>Drought is one of the most severe limitations on the productivity of soybean. There are many genes and proteins involved in drought stress tolerance.  Identification of proteins which could be used as the base for the development of molecular study is very important to understand drought tolerance thoroughly. The objective of the research was to investigate protein expression of soybean to drought stress. Changes in protein expression were analyzed using SDS PAGE and two dimensional gel electrophoresis. Image analysis of 2D protein was performed by using the PDQuest 8.0 software program (Bio-Rad). Tolerant variety, Dering-1, was subjected to drought stress using limitation of watering, while Detam-1, a sensitive variety, was used as comparator.  The result showed that protein concentration have decreased in drought condition from 3,22 mg/ml to 0,77 mg/ml. The new protein band with the 24,95 kDa have been found in drought condition. This protein is osmotin like protein with the accession number NP915414 which may play a role in the mechanism of drought resistance. The identification of the protein based on sequence amino acid literature review</em>

Analysis of human scalp epidermal prekeratin polypeptides by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed that each of the bands observed in one-dimensional electrophoresis consisted of three to five polypeptides of the same molecular weight but differing in isoelectric points. It was possible to divide the polypeptides into two families, with isoelectric points in the ranges pH 6.0-8.0 and pH 5.0-5.5 respectively. Incorporation of radiolabelled amino acids into freshly excised pieces of scalp epidermis showed that some of the polypeptides had relatively greater contents of glycine and serine than others. Radiolabelled methionine and leucine were, in contrast, incorporated more or less uniformly into all the polypeptides. After incubation with 32P-labelled orthophosphate, relatively more intense labelling by 32P was observed in the higher molecular weight bands of each family. The most basic of the isoelectric variants in each case did not take up phosphate, implying that at least some of the variation in charge was due to different degrees of phosphorylation. Polyadenylated RNA isolated from scalp epidermis was translated in an RNA-dependent reticulocyte haemolysate system followed by immunoprecipitation and electrophoresis. The polypeptides isolated by using anti-(human scalp prekeratin) immunoglobulin G had similar electrophoretic mobilities in sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide gels to authentic prekeratin polypeptides, but had different isoelectric properties. This suggested that the products of keratin gene expression undergo post-translational modification.

Abstract Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) seed proteins were resolved into arachin and non-arachin fractions, and composite two-dimensional polypeptide maps were prepared. Seed proteins were extracted with a buffer containing 2 M NaCl, 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.2), 0.2 mM phenylmethyl sulfonyl fluoride and 0.002% NaN3 and resolved into ten peaks by gel filtration on a Sephacryl S-300 column. Gel filtration of total protein extract yielded three molecular weight variants (490,000., 400,000, and 365,000) of arachin. Gel electrophoresis showed quantitative and qualitative differences in the protein and polypeptide composition of the three arachin variants. Nonarachin proteins obtained by this method were heterogeneous and distinct from the arachin. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis revealed several differences in the polypeptide composition between arachin fraction IV and fractions II and III. Composite two-dimensional polypeptide maps of arachin and non-arachin revealed the presence of several polypeptides with similar isoelectric points and molecular weights between them. Arachin contained six molecular weight (between 15,500 and 68,000) classes of polypeptides with isoelectric points between 4.7 and 8.4 while nonarachin contained nine molecular weight (between 16,000 and 170,000) classes of polypeptides having isoelectric points between 4.7 and 7.9.
