Depletion of RuBisCO Protein Using the Protamine Sulfate Precipitation Method
Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (RuBisCO) is a major high-abundant protein (HAP) in the plant leaves which hinders analysis of low-abundant proteins (LAP). In this chapter, we describe a highly...

Differential Proteome and Secretome Analysis During Rice–Pathogen Interaction
Substantial evidences implicate that sample preparation and protein extraction in proteomic studies of plant–pathogen interactions are critical to understand cross talk between host and pathogen. Therefore, in...

S5a/Rpn10, a UIM-Protein, as a Universal Substrate for Ubiquitination
The assay of the activity of ubiquitin (Ub) ligases (E3s) and screens for pharmacological agents that alter their function are a continual challenge for basic investigators as well as in drug development. The ...

Formation of Nondegradable Forked Ubiquitin Conjugates by Ring-Finger Ligases and Its Prevention by S5a
The biological role and fates of ubiquitin (Ub) conjugates are determined by the nature of the ubiquitin chain formed on the protein. Recently, we reported that Ring-finger and U-box ubiquitin ligases (E3s), w...
