The role of protein phosphorylation during progamic phase of tobacco male gametophyte development
Fíla, Jan ; Honys, David (advisor) ; Paleček, Jan (referee) ; Smýkal, Petr (referee)
v angličtině (English abstract) Tobacco male gametophyte has a strongly dehydrated cytoplasm and represents a metabolically inactive stage. Upon cytoplasm rehydration, pollen grain becomes metabolically active and after the activation is finished, the pollen tube growth through a selected pollen aperture starts. The rehydration together with metabolic activation are accompanied by the regulation of translation and post-translational modifications (mainly phosphorylation) of the existing proteins. In this Ph.D. thesis, there were identified phosphopeptides from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) mature pollen, pollen activated in vitro 5 min and pollen activated in vitro 30 min. The total proteins from the above male gametophyte stages were extracted. The protein extract was trypsinized and the acquired peptide mixture was enriched by MOAC (metal oxide/hydroxide affinity chromatography) with titanium dioxide matrix. The enriched fraction was subjected to liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC- MS/MS). Totally, there were identified 471 phosphopeptides, carrying 432 exactly localized phosphorylation sites. The acquired peptide identifications were mapped to 301 phosphoproteins that were placed into 13 functional categories, dominant of which were transcription, protein synthesis,...

Enrichment techniques employed in phosphoproteomics
Fíla, Jan ; Honys, David (advisor) ; Zdráhal, Zbyněk (referee)
Reversible protein phosphorylation represents one of the most rapid and dynamic posttranslational modifications. Phosphorylation plays a key role in many cellular processes, e.g. cell division, signal transduction, cytoskeleton dynamics, translation regulation, protein targeting and metabolism. Unfortunately, the importance of phosphoproteins is often not mirrored in their abundance so enriching strategies are mostly inevitable. The enrichment can be performed either at the stage of phosphoproteins or at the stage of phosphopeptides. Alternatively, a combination of both strategies can be used. Most enriching strategies are based on chemical modifications, affinity of phosphates to positively-charged chromatography matrix or antibodies. Every method used has its advantages as well as disadvantages. Moreover, satisfactory coverage of phosphoproteome is very often reached by combination of several methods. In the past five years many protocols have been improved or alternatively new approaches have appeared. So in this bachelor thesis, the available enrichment strategies are reviewed. Key words: phosphoproteomics, phosphoprotein enrichment, phosphopeptide enrichment, IMAC, MOAC, titanium dioxide TiO2, aluminium hydroxide Al(OH)3, antibodies

Iron oxide nanoparticle modified monolithic pipette tips for selective enrichment of phosphopeptides
Křenková, Jana ; Foret, František
We have developed iron oxide nanoparticle modified monolithic pipette tips for selective and efficient enrichment of phosphopeptides. Iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized using a co-precipitation method and stabilized by citrate ions. A stable coating of nanoparticles was obtained via multivalent interactions of citrate ions on the nanoparticle surface with a quaternary amine functionalized surface of the methacrylate based monolithic tips. The performance of the developed and commercially available tips was demonstrated with the enrichment of phosphorylated peptides from tryptic digests of caseins followed by MALDI/MS detection.
