Review: This book provides the up-to-date methods and protocols used by research scientists in plant proteomics worldwide. The book begins by looking at standard protocols and goes on to describe optimized protocols for protein extraction of peculiar tissues, such as cereal seeds, xylem, phloem sap, of woody plants, and of cellular compartments, such as chloroplasts and mitochondria. These methods rely on improvements to solubilization of proteins, which are discussed here. There are also chapters on methods for protein identification and on the rapidly-expanding areas of post-translation modifications and protein–protein relationships.
