The study utilized SWATH-MS technology to analyze the proteome changes in poplar seedling roots following Pb treatment. Results showed that the lignin and flavonoid biosynthesis pathways were activated upon Pb exposure, while cell wall-related proteins exhibited increased abundances. Glutathione metabolism pathway may play a protective role in mitigating Pb-induced oxidative damages.
Lead (Pb) toxicity is a growing serious environmental pollution that threatens human health and crop productivity. Poplar, as an important economic and ecological forest species, has the characteristics of fasting growth and accumulating heavy metals, which is a powerful model plant for phytoremediation. Here, a novel label-free quantitative proteomic platform of SWATH-MS was applied to detect proteome changes in poplar seedling roots following Pb treatment. In total 4388 unique proteins were identified and quantified, among which 542 proteins showed significant abundance changes upon Pb(II) exposure. Functional categorizations revealed that differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) primarily distributed in specialized biological processes. Particularly, lignin and flavonoid biosynthesis pathway were strongly activated upon Pb exposure, implicating their potential roles for Pb detoxification in poplar. Furthermore, hemicellulose and pectin related cell wall proteins exhibited increased abundances, where may function as a sequestration reservoir to reduce Pb toxicity in cytoplasm. Simultaneously, up-regulation of glutathione metabolism may serve as a protective role for Pb-induced oxidative damages in poplar. Further correlation investigation revealed an extra layer of post-transcriptional regulation during Pb response in poplar. Overall, our work represents multiply potential regulators in mediating Pb tolerance in poplar, providing molecular targets and strategies for phytoremediation.
