Proteome comparative analysis of gynogenetic haploid and diploid embryos of goldfish (Carassius auratus).
Recently, it was found that in the gynogenetic haploid and diploid embryos of goldfish, which have exactly the same genome, the haploid condition results in obstruction of gene expression and abnormal development while the diploid embryos have normal gene expression and development. A diploid-dependent regulatory apparatus was proposed to regulate gene expression. To study the difference at the protein expression level of the embryos of haploid and diploid in development, we extracted the total proteins of both the gynogenetic haploid and diploid embryos of goldfish in the same eye formation stage. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to separate proteins. The stained gel images were analyzed with the PDQUEST software. A part of protein spots that were differentially expressed in haploid and diploid embryos were identified by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionisation-time of flight-mass spectrometry and database analysis. Sixteen protein spots that were absolutely different (only expressed in diploid embryos but not in haploid embryos or vice versa) and 16 protein spots that were up- and downregulated were identified unambiguously, which include some proteins that are correlative with eyes development, nerve development, developing regulation, cell differentiation, and signal transduction. The different significantly gene expression during embryos developing between diploid and haploid is demonstrated.
