Notes:
Two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis has been used to follow changes in cell type specific and organelle localized polypeptides upon exposure of etiolated sorghum shoots and dark-grown resting Euglena to light. Total protein extracted from isolated bundle sheath strands and mesophyll protoplasts was resolved by 2-D gel electrophoresis. The cell type specific polypeptides were localized on the whole shoot 2-D gel map in order to determine changes in the levels of these polypeptides upon light exposure. An image analyzer was used to analyze fluorographs of 2-D gels of total Euglena protein pulse-labeled with [35S]sulfate in the dark, immediately upon light exposure and 1, 4, 14, 24, 48 and 72 h after light exposure. The subset of polypeptides whose relative rats of synthesis changes more than threefold immediately upon light exposure was i dentified. The different patterns of changes in the rate of synthesis of this subset of polypeptides were followed.
