title: Comparative proteome analysis of changes in the 26S proteasome during oocyte maturation in goldfish.
abstract: Proteasomes are large, multi-subunit particles that act as the proteolytic machinery for most of the regulated intracellular protein degradation in eukaryotic cells. An alteration of proteasome function may be important for the regulation of the meiotic cell cycle. To study the change at the subunit level of the 26S proteasome during meiotic maturation, we purified 26S proteasomes from immature and mature oocytes of goldfish. Two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to separate proteins. For differential analysis, whole spots of the 26S proteasome from goldfish oocytes were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry and database analysis. Four spots that were different (only detected in mature oocyte 265 proteasomes and not in immature ones) and four protein spots that were up- or down-regulated were identified unambiguously. The mature-specific spots were not 26S proteasome components but rather their interacting proteins, and were identified as chaperonin-containing TCP-1 subunits and myosin light chain. Minor spots of three subunits of the 20S core particle and one of the 19S regulatory particle showed meiotic cell cycle-dependent changes. These results demonstrate that modifications of proteasomal subunits and cell cycle phase-dependent interactions of proteins with proteasomes occur during oocyte maturation in goldfish.
