Nitric oxide (NO) modulates low temperature-stress signaling via S-nitrosation, a NO PTM, inducing ethylene biosynthesis inhibition leading to enhanced post-harvest shelf-life of agricultural produce.

Unlabelled: Low temperature (cold) stress is one of the major abiotic stress conditions affecting crop productivity worldwide. Nitric oxide (NO) is a dynamic signaling molecule that interacts with various stress regulators and provides abiotic stress tolerance. Stress enhanced NO contributes to S-nitrosothiol accumulation which causes oxidation of the -SH group in proteins leading to S-nitrosation, a post-translational modification.

Identification of nitric oxide regulated low abundant myrosinases from seeds and seedlings of Brassica juncea.

Myrosinases constitute an important component of the glucosinolate-myrosinase system responsible for interaction of plants with microorganisms, insects, pest, and herbivores. It is a distinctive feature of Brassicales. Multiple isozymes of myrosinases are present in the vacuoles.

Brassica juncea leaf cuticle proteome analysis shows myrosinase protein, antifreeze activity, and post-translationally modified secretory proteins.

Plant cuticle, the site of perception of stress signals, is an extracellular hydrophobic barrier that covers the epidermis of the above-ground parts. This lipidic layer has been explored for its cutin and wax composition. However, reports on the cuticle proteins are scanty.

N-glycoproteome analysis: a small step towards sea buckthorn proteome mining.

is a hardy shrub capable of growing under extreme environmental conditions namely, high salt, drought and cold. Its ability to grow under extreme conditions and its wide application in pharmaceutical and nutraceutical industry calls for its in-depth analysis. N-glycoproteome mining by con A affinity chromatography from seedling was attempted.
