Proteomics‐based milk whey proteome profiling of Indian Jersey crossbreed cows followed by chromosomal mapping

Abstract

AbstractBACKGROUNDMilk contains a massive class of minor proteins that are known for their various biological and molecular functions. Many whey proteins transfer the host defense mechanism to the human body. In this assay, electrophoresis followed by a high‐resolution mass spectrometry‐based proteomic approach has been applied to identify the whey proteome of Indian Jersey crossbreed bovines.RESULTSTwo search engines, MS Amanda and Sequest HT, have shown more than 29 minor proteins. Chromosomal mapping revealed that chromosomes 5 and 9 are expressing maximum proteins in the whey proteome. The principal component analysis, outlier plots, scree plots, score plots, and loading plots were generated to further assess the results.CONCLUSIONThe majorly expressed ones are glycosylation‐dependent cell adhesion molecule‐1, ubiquitin, desmoglein, annexin, glycoprotein, arginase, histones, peroxiredoxin, vimentin, desmin, catenin, peripherin, and 70 kDa heat shock protein. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.
