Progress in proteomics technology and its application on fruit tree

Study on proteome is an emerging field in current life science research. The ultimate aim of new era is to illustrate expression patterns and biological function of all proteins. The concept, research method and application of proteomics in plant science are briefly introduced in this paper. It is generally acknowledged that the field of proteomics is based on the development and improvement of technology and method of two-dimensional electrophoresis(2D-E), mass spectrome-try(MS), protein chips, yeast two-hybrid system, two-dimensional chromatography and bioinformatics. In population genetics , proteomic techniques are helpful for studing genetic diversity and mutation. In individual plant, proteomic study is helpful for understanding the response of plant to biotic and abiotic environmental factors. Proteomic differences among different plant tissues or organs could be used to better understand tissue differentiation and development of embryo. Proteomic difference also exists among organelles in plant cells. Plant proteomic study could be used for understanding the mechanism that controls many physiological processes. The prospect of proteomics and its application on fruit tree is discussed.
