| Zusammenfassung: | Copyright © 2019. Published by Elsevier GmbH. Seeds are the basis of propagation for the common beech (Fagus sylvatica L.), but the seed set of the beech is unsteady, with 5-10 years between abundant crops. Beech seeds are very difficult to store and lose their viability quickly even in optimum storage conditions. To date, it has not been possible to determine factors indicative of the aging process and the loss of viability of beech seeds during storage. To address this important economic challenge and interesting scientific problem, we analyzed the adjustment of the redox state during the development and storage of seeds. Many metabolic processes are based on reduction and oxidation reactions. Thiol proteins control and react to the redox state in the cells. The level of thiol proteins increased during seed maturation and decreased during storage. Gel-based redox proteomics identified 17 proteins in beech seeds during development. The proteins could be assigned to processes like metabolism and antioxidant functions. During storage, the number of proteins decreased to only six, i.e., oxidoreductases, peptidases, hydrolases and isomerases. The occurrence of peroxiredoxins (PRX) as thiol peroxidases and redox regulators indicates an important role of cytosolic 1CysPRX and PRXIIC, mitochondrial PRXIIF, and plastidic PRXIIE, 2CysPRX, and PRXQ in beech seeds during development and storage. Particularly, 2CysPRX was present in beech seeds during development and storage and may perform an important function in regulation of the redox state during both seed development and storage. The role of thiol proteins in the regulation of the redox state during the development and storage of beech seeds is discussed |
