Abstract
The total polypetide composition of mature grape berries was analyzed by one-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and two-dimensional electrophoresis (isoelectric focusing in the first dimension followed by sodium dodecyl sulfate - polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in the second dimension), followed by Coomassie Blue and nitrate silver staining, respectively. Adapted methods for total protein preparation of grapes and for two-dimensional gel electrophoretic separation of polypeptides are presented. The grape patterns presented up to 52 fractions with Mrs ranging from 15000 to 110000. The polypeptides displayed pIs from 4.6 to 7.3. A group of spots from Mr 28000 to 83 000 and with a pI from 4.6 to 5.4 was strongly silver stained. The Mr 28 000 spot, pI 4.6, was revealed to be a complex of four fractions. Reproducible separations were obtained with the different carrier ampholyte mixtures tested.
