    Extracellular matrix proteome: Isolation of ECM proteins for proteomics studies
    (Springer Nature Publishing AG, 2020) Elagamey, Eman; Narula, Kanika; Chakraborty, Niranjan; Chakraborty, Subhra
    Understanding molecular mechanisms and cellular metabolism in varied plant processes necessitates knowledge of the expressed proteins and their subcellular distribution. Spatial partitioning of organelles generates an enclosed milieu for physiochemical reactions designed and tightly linked to a specific organelle function. Of which, extracellular matrix (ECM)/cell wall (CW) is a dynamic and chemically active compartment. The ECM proteins are organized into complex structural and functional networks involved in several metabolic processes, including carbon and nitrogen metabolism. Organellar proteomics aim for comprehensive identification of resident proteins that rely on the isolation of highly purified organelle free from contamination by other intracellular components. Extraction and isolation of plant ECM proteins features key caveats due to the lack of adjoining membrane, the presence of a polysaccharide–protein network that traps contaminants, and the existence of high phenolic content. Furthermore, due to diverse biochemical forces, including labile, weakly bound and strongly bound protein in the protein–polysaccharide matrix different elution procedures are required to enrich ECM proteins. Here, we describe a method that allows efficient fractionation of plant ECM, extraction of ECM proteins and protein profiling from variety of crop plants, including rice, chickpea and potato. This method can easily be adapted to other plant species for varied experimental conditions.

    Quantitative extracellular matrix proteomics suggests cell wall reprogramming in host-specific immunity during vascular wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum in chickpea
    (John Wiley & Sons, 2017) Elagamey, Eman; Narula, Kanika; Sinha, Arunima; Ghosh, Sudip; Abdellatef, Magdi A.E.; Chakraborty, Niranjan; Chakraborty, Subhra
    Extracellular matrix (ECM) is the unique organelle that perceives stress signals and reprograms molecular events of host cell during patho-stress. However, our understanding of how ECM dictates plant immunity is largely unknown. Vascular wilt caused by the soil borne filamentous fungus Fusarium oxysporum is a major impediment for global crop productivity. To elucidate the role of ECM proteins and molecular mechanism associated with cell wall mediated immunity, the temporal changes of ECM proteome was studied in vascular wilt resistant chickpea cultivar upon F. oxysporum infection. The 2-DE protein profiling coupled with mass spectrometric analysis identified 166 immune responsive proteins (IRPs) involved in variety of functions. Our data suggest that wall remodeling; protein translocation, stabilization and chitin triggered immunity; extracellular ATP signaling are major players in early, middle and later phases of ECM signaling during fungal attack. Furthermore, we interrogated the proteome data using network analysis that identified modules enriched in known and novel immunity-related prognostic proteins centered around nascent aminopolypeptide complex (NAC), amine oxidase, thioredoxin and chaperonin. This study for the first time provides an insight into the complex network operating in the ECM and impinges on the surveillance mechanism of innate immunity during patho-stress in crop plant.

    Molecular dissection of extracellular matrix proteome reveals discrete mechanism regulating Verticillium dahliae triggered vascular wilt disease in potato
    (John Wiley & Sons, 2017) Elagamey, Eman; Sinha, Arunima; Narula, Kanika; Abdellatef, Magdi A.E.; Chakraborty, Niranjan; Chakraborty, Subhra
    Plants exposed to patho-stress mostly succumb due to disease by disruption of cellular integrity and changes in the composition of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Vascular wilt, caused by the soil borne hemibiotrophic filamentous fungus Verticillium dahliae, is one of the most significant diseases that adversely affects plant growth and productivity. The virulence of the pathogen associated with the ECM-related susceptibility of the host plant is far from being understood. To better understand ECM-associated disease responses that allow the pathogen to supress plant immunity, a temporal analysis of ECM proteome was carried out in vascular wilt susceptible potato cultivar upon V. dahliae infection. The proteome profiling led to the identification of 75 patho-stress responsive proteins (PSRPs), predominantly involved in wall hydration, architecture, and redox homeostasis. Two novel clues regarding wilt disease of potato were gained from this study. First, wall crosslinking and salicylic acid signaling significantly altered during patho-stress. Second, generation of reactive oxygen species and scavenging proteins increased in abundance leading to cell death and necrosis of the host. We provide evidence for the first time that how fungal invasion affects the integrity of ECM components and host reprogramming for susceptibility may function at the cell surface by protein plasticity.
