Abstract
The symbiosis of probiotic bacteria with humans has rendered various health benefits while providing nutrition and a suitable environment for their survival. However, the probiotics must survive unfavorable gut conditions to exert beneficial effects. The intrinsic resistance of probiotics to survive harsh conditions results from a myriad of proteins. Interaction of microbial proteins with the host is indispensable for modulating the gut microbiome, such as interaction with cell receptors and protective action against pathogens. The complex interplay of proteins should be unraveled by utilizing metaproteomic strategies. The contribution of probiotics to health is now widely accepted. However, due to the inconsistency of generalized probiotics, contemporary research toward precision probiotics has gained momentum for customized treatment. This review explores the application of metaproteomics and AI/ML algorithms in resolving multiomics data analysis and in silico prediction of microbial features for screening specific beneficial probiotic organisms. Implementing these integrative strategies could augment the potential of precision probiotics for personalized healthcare.

Abstract
Breast cancer, a multi-networking heterogeneous disease, has emerged as a serious impediment to progress in clinical oncology. Although technological advancements and emerging cancer research studies have mitigated breast cancer lethality, a precision cancer-oriented solution has not been achieved. Thus, this review will persuade the acquiescence of proteomics-based diagnostic and therapeutic options in breast cancer management. Recently, the evidence of breast cancer health surveillance through imaging proteomics, single-cell proteomics, interactomics, and post-translational modification (PTM) tracking, to construct proteome maps and proteotyping for stage-specific and sample-specific cancer subtyping have outperformed conventional ways of dealing with breast cancer by increasing diagnostic efficiency, prognostic value, and predictive response. Additionally, the paradigm shift in applied proteomics for designing a chemotherapy regimen to identify novel drug targets with minor adverse effects has been elaborated. Finally, the potential of proteomics in alleviating the occurrence of chemoresistance and enhancing reprofiled drugs' effectiveness to combat therapeutic obstacles has been discussed. Owing to the enormous potential of proteomics techniques, the clinical recognition of proteomics in breast cancer management can be achievable and therapeutic intricacies can be surmountable.

Abstract
Milk is a biofluid with various functions, containing carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, vitamins, and minerals. Owing to its importance and availability of vast proteomics information, our research group designed a database for bovine milk proteins (N = 3159) containing the primary and secondary information called BoMiProt. Due to the gaining interest and intensively published literature in the last three years, BoMiProt has been upgraded with newer identified proteins (N = 7459) from peer-reviewed journals, significantly expanding the database from different milk fractions (e.g., whey, fat globule membranes, and exosomes). Additionally, class, architecture, topology, and homology, structural classification of proteins, known and predicted disorder, predicted transmembrane helices, and structures have been included. Each protein entry in the database is thoroughly cross-referenced, including 1392 BoMiProt defined proteins provided with secondary information, such as protein function, biochemical properties, post-translational modifications, significance in milk, domains, fold, AlphaFold predicted models and crystal structures. The proteome data in the database can be retrieved using several search parameters using protein name, accession IDs, and FASTA sequence. Overall, BoMiProt represents an extensive compilation of newer proteins, including structural, functional, and hierarchical information, to help researchers better understand mammary gland pathophysiology, including their potential application in improving the nutritional quality of dairy products.

Abstract
Human milk, the gold standard for optimal nourishment, controls the microbial composition of infants by either enhancing or limiting bacterial growth. The milk fat globule membrane has gained interest in gut-related functions and cognitive development. The membrane proteins can directly interact with probiotic bacteria, influencing their survival and adhesion through gastrointestinal transit, whereas membrane phospholipids increase the residence time of probiotic bacteria in the gut. The commensal bacteria in milk act as the initial inoculum in building up the gut colonization of an infant, whereas oligosaccharides promote proliferation of beneficial microorganisms. Interestingly, milk extracellular vesicles are also involved in influencing the microbiota composition but are not well-explored. This review highlights the contribution of different milk components in modulating the infant gut microbiota, particularly the fat globule membrane, and the complex interplay between host- and brain-gut microbiota signaling affecting infant and adult health positively.

Abstract
Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) targets include the oral mucosa and salivary glands after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Without incisional biopsy, no diagnostic test exists to confirm oral cGVHD. Consequently, therapy is often withheld until severe manifestations develop. This proteomic study examined saliva and human salivary gland for a biomarker profile at first onset of oral cGVHD prior to initiation of topical steroid therapy. Whole saliva collected at onset of biopsy-proven oral GVHD was assessed using liquid chromatography–coupled tandem mass spectrometry with identification of 569 proteins, of which 77 significantly changed in abundance. ZG16B, a secretory lectin protein, was reduced 2-fold in oral cGVHD saliva (p <0.05), and significantly decreased in salivary gland secretory cells affected by cGVHD. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis of healthy MSG localized ZG16B expression to two discrete acinar cell populations. Reduced ZG16B expression may indicate specific cGVHD activity and possibly general salivary gland dysfunction. Salivary glands are targets of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) Saliva and salivary glands at onset of oral cGVHD have reduced ZG16B protein ZG16b gene expression localizes to two types of salivary gland excretory cells ZG16B expression loss may indicate cGVHD activity or general salivary gland damage

Abstract
Salinity stress poses a significant risk to plant development and agricultural yield. Therefore, elucidation of stress-response mechanisms has become essential to identify salt-tolerance genes in plants. In the present study, two genotypes of pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) with contrasting tolerance for salinity exhibited differential morpho-physiological and proteomic responses under 150 mM NaCl. The genotype IC 325825 was shown to withstand the stress better than IP 17224. The salt-tolerance potential of IC 325825 was associated with its ability to maintain intracellular osmotic, ionic, and redox homeostasis and membrane integrity under stress. The IC 325825 genotype exhibited a higher abundance of C4 photosynthesis enzymes, efficient enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant system, and lower Na+ /K+ ratio compared with IP 17224. Comparative proteomics analysis revealed greater metabolic perturbation in IP 17224 under salinity, in contrast to IC 325825 that harbored pro-active stress-responsive machinery, allowing its survival and better adaptability under salt stress. The differentially abundant proteins were in silico characterized for their functions, subcellular-localization, associated pathways, and protein-protein interaction. These proteins were mainly involved in photosynthesis/response to light stimulus, carbohydrate and energy metabolism, and stress responses. Proteomics data were validated through expression profiling of the selected genes, revealing a poor correlation between protein abundance and their relative transcript levels. This study has provided novel insights into salt adaptive mechanisms in P. glaucum, demonstrating the power of proteomics-based approaches. The critical proteins identified in the present study could be further explored as potential objects for engineering stress tolerance in salt-sensitive major crops.

Abstract
Catabolite repressor activator (Cra) is a member of the LacI family transcriptional regulator distributed across a wide range of bacteria and regulates the carbon metabolism and virulence gene expression. In numerous studies to crystallize the apo form of the LacI family transcription factor, the N-terminal domain (NTD), which functions as a DNA-binding domain, has been enigmatically missing from the final resolved structures. It was speculated that the NTD is disordered or unstable and gets cleaved during crystallization. Here, we have determined the crystal structure of Cra from Escherichia coli (EcCra). The structure revealed a well-defined electron density for the C-terminal domain (CTD). However, electron density was missing for the first 56 amino acids (NTD). Our data reveal for the first time that EcCra undergoes a spontaneous cleavage at the conserved Asn 50 (N50) site, which separates the N-terminal DNA binding domain from the C-terminal effector molecule binding domain. With the site-directed mutagenesis, we confirm the involvement of residue N50 in the spontaneous cleavage phenomenon. Furthermore, the Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) assay of the EcCra-NTD with DNA showed EcCra-NTD is in a functional conformation state and retains its DNA binding activity.

Abstract
Tumor metastasis is the leading cause of cancer mortality, often characterized by abnormal cell growth and invasion to distant organs. The cancer invasion due to epithelial to mesenchymal transition is affected by metabolic and oxygen availability in the tumor-associated micro-environment. A precise alteration in oxygen and metabolic signaling between healthy and metastatic cells is a substantial probe for understanding tumor progression and metastasis. Molecular heterogeneity in the tumor microenvironment help to sustain the metastatic cell growth during their survival shift from low to high metabolic-oxygen-rich sites and reinforces the metastatic events. This review highlighted the crucial role of oxygen and metabolites in metastatic progression and exemplified the role of metabolic rewiring and oxygen availability in cancer cell adaptation. Furthermore, we have also addressed potential applications of altered oxygen and metabolic networking with tumor type that could be a signature pattern to assess tumor growth and chemotherapeutics efficacy in managing cancer metastasis.

Abstract
Bovine mastitis is a prototypic emerging and reemerging bacterial disease that results in cut-by-cut torture to animals, public health and the global economy. Pathogenic microbes causing mastitis have overcome a series of hierarchical barriers resulting in the zoonotic transmission from bovines to humans either by proximity or remotely through milk and meat. The disease control is challenging and has been attributed to faulty surveillance systems to monitor their emergence at the human-animal interface. The complex interaction between the pathogens, the hidden pathobionts and commensals of the bovine mammary gland that create a menace during mastitis remains unexplored. Here, we review the zoonotic potential of these pathogens with a primary focus on understanding the interplay between the host immunity, mammary ecology and the shift from symbiosis to dysbiosis. We also address the pros and cons of the current management strategies and the extent of the success in implementing the One-Health approach to keep these pathogens at bay.

Abstract
Milk lipids are known for a variety of biological functions, however; little is known about compositional variation across breeds, especially for Jaffarabadi buffalo, an indigenous Indian breed. Systematic profiling of extracted milk lipids was performed by mass spectrometry across summer and winter in Holstein Friesian cow and Jaffarabadi buffalo. Extensive MS/MS spectral analysis for the identification (ID) of probable lipid species using software followed by manual verification and grading of each assigned lipid species enabled ID based on (a) parent ion, (b) head group, and (c) partial/full acyl characteristic ions for comparative profiling of triacylglycerols between the breeds. Additionally, new triacylglycerol species with short-chain fatty acids were reported by manual interpretation of MS/MS spectra and comparison with curated repositories. Collectively, 1093 triacylglycerol species belonging to 141 unique sum compositions between the replicates of both the animal groups were identified. Relative quantitation at sum composition level followed by statistical analyses revealed changes in relative abundances of triacylglycerol species due to breed, season, and interaction effect of the two. Significant changes in triacylglycerols were observed between breeds (81%) and seasons (59%). When the interaction effect is statistically significant, a higher number of triacylglycerols species in Jaffarabadi has lesser seasonal variation than Holstein Friesian.

Abstract
Bovine mastitis, caused by Staphylococcus aureus, is a major impediment to milk production and lacks markers to indicate disease progression in cows and buffaloes. Thus, the focus of this study was to identify proteins marking the transition from subclinical to clinical mastitis. Whey proteins were isolated from 6 group's i.e. healthy, subclinical and clinical mastitis of Holstein Friesian cow and Murrah buffalo. Mass spectrometry and statistical analysis (ANOVA and t-tests) were performed on 12 biological samples each from cow and buffalo (4 per healthy, subclinical and clinical mastitis) resulting in a total of 24 proteome datasets. Collectively, 1479 proteins were identified of which significant proteins were shortlisted by a combination of fold change (≤ 0.5 or ≥ 2) and q < 0.05. Of these proteins, 128 and 163 indicated disease progression in cow and buffalo, respectively. Change in expression of haptoglobin and fibronectin from Holstein Friesian while spermadhesin and osteopontin from Murrah correlated with disease progression. Similarly, angiogenin and cofilin-1 were upregulated while ubiquitin family members were downregulated during disease transition. Subsequently, selected proteins (e.g. osteopontin and fibrinogen-α) were validated by Western blots. The results of this study provide deeper insights into whey proteome dynamics and signature patterns indicative of disease progression. BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Bovine mastitis is the most lethal infectious disease causing a huge economic loss in the dairy industry. In an attempt, to understand the dynamics of whey proteome in response to S. aureus infection, whey protein collected from healthy, subclinical and clinical mastitic HF and Mu were investigated. A total of 1479 proteins were identified, of which 128 and 163 had signature pattern in each stage indicative of the progression of the disease. The results of the present study provide a foundation to better understand the complexity of mastitis that will ultimately help facilitate early therapeutic and husbandry-based intervention to improve animal health and milk quality.

Abstract
Bovine milk has become an important biological fluid for proteomic research due to its nutritional and immunological benefits. To date, over 300 publications have reported changes in bovine milk protein composition based on seasons, lactation stages, breeds, health status and milk fractions while there are no reports on consolidation or overlap of data between studies. Thus, we have developed a literature-based, manually curated open online database of bovine milk proteome, BoMiProt (http://bomiprot.org), with over 3100 proteins from whey, fat globule membranes and exosomes. Each entry in the database is thoroughly cross-referenced including 397 proteins with well-defined information on protein function, biochemical properties, post-translational modifications and significance in milk from different publications. Of 397 proteins, over 199 have been reported with a structural gallery of homology models and crystal structures in the database. The proteome data can be retrieved using several search parameters such as protein name, accession IDs, FASTA sequence. Furthermore, the proteome data can be filtered based on milk fractions, post-translational modifications and/or structures. Taken together, BoMiProt represents an extensive compilation of bovine milk proteins from literature, providing a foundation for future studies to identify specific milk proteins which may be linked to mammary gland pathophysiology. BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Protein data identified from different previously published proteomic studies on bovine milk samples (21 publications) were gathered in the BoMiProt database. Unification of the identified proteins will give researchers an initial reference database on bovine milk proteome to understand the complexities of milk as a biological fluid. BoMiProt has a user-friendly interface with several useful features, including different search criteria for primary and secondary information of proteins along with cross-references to external databases. The database will provide insights into the existing literature and possible future directions to investigate further and improve the beneficial effects of bovine milk components and dairy products on human health.

Abstract
Apple (Malus sp.) and other genera belonging to the sub-tribe Malinae of the Rosaceae family produce unique benzoic acid-derived biphenyl phytoalexins. Cell cultures of Malus domestica cv. 'Golden Delicious' accumulate two biphenyl phytoalexins, aucuparin and noraucuparin, in response to the addition of a Venturia inaequalis elicitor (VIE). In this study, we isolated and expressed a cinnamate-CoA ligase (CNL)-encoding sequence from VIE-treated cell cultures of cv. 'Golden Delicious' (M. domestica CNL; MdCNL). MdCNL catalyses the conversion of cinnamic acid into cinnamoyl-CoA, which is subsequently converted to biphenyls. MdCNL failed to accept benzoic acid as a substrate. When scab-resistant (cv. 'Shireen') and moderately scab-susceptible (cv. 'Golden Delicious') apple cultivars were challenged with the V. inaequalis scab fungus, an increase in MdCNL transcript levels was observed in internodal regions. The increase in MdCNL transcript levels could conceivably correlate with the pattern of accumulation of biphenyls. The C-terminal signal in the MdCNL protein directed its N-terminal reporter fusion to peroxisomes in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves. Thus, this report records the cloning and characterisation of a cinnamoyl-CoA-forming enzyme from apple via a series of in vivo and in vitro studies. Defining the key step of phytoalexin formation in apple provides a biotechnological tool for engineering elite cultivars with improved resistance.

Abstract
Characterization of milk fat globule (MFG) was performed to investigate the difference in MFG membrane (MFGM) between fresh and mastitis Holstein Friesian cow milk. Lipid distribution investigated by exogenous phospholipids using microscopy showed higher phospholipid content in fresh compared to mastitic MFGM. Xanthine oxidase assay indicative of membrane impairment revealed lower activity in mastitic samples compared to fresh globules. Of note, significantly higher roughness of globule surface and zeta potential was observed in mastitis compared to fresh globules. Influence of globule membrane on the interaction with L. fermentum demonstrated preferential adhesion of bacteria to fresh compared to mastitic globules including enhanced extent of binding. Results of the present study provides an insight of the interfacial changes occurring at the globule surface as well as highlighting the importance of selective bacterial interaction with milk components for the potential development of functional food with relevance to human health.

Abstract
Breast and ovarian cancers, the most common cancers in women in India, are expected to rise in the next decade. Metastatic organotropism is a nonrandom, predetermined process which represents a more lethal and advanced form of cancer with increased mortality rate. In an attempt to study organotropism, salivary proteins were analyzed by mass spectrometry indicative of pathophysiology of breast and ovarian cancers and were compared to healthy and ovarian chemotherapy subjects. Collectively, 646 proteins were identified, of which 409 proteins were confidently identified across all four groups. Network analysis of upregulated proteins such as coronin-1A, hepatoma-derived growth factor, vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP), and cofilin in breast cancer and proteins like coronin-1A, destrin, and HSP90α in ovarian cancer were functionally linked and were known to regulate cell proliferation and migration. Additionally, proteins namely VASP, coronin-1A, stathmin, and suprabasin were confidently identified in ovarian chemotherapy subjects, possibly in response to combined paclitaxel and carboplatin drug therapy to ovarian cancer. Selected representative differentially expressed proteins (eg, gelsolin, VASP) were validated by western blot analysis. Results of this study provide a foundation for future research to better understand the organotropic behavior of breast and ovarian cancers, as well as neoadjuvant drug response in ovarian cancer.

Abstract
Protein glycosylation systems in many bacteria are often associated with crucial biological processes like pathogenicity, immune evasion and host-pathogen interactions, implying the significance of protein-glycan linkage. Similarly, host protein glycosylation has been implicated in antimicrobial activity as well as in promoting growth of beneficial strains. In fact, few pathogens notably modulate host glycosylation machineries to facilitate their survival. To date, diverse chemical and biological strategies have been developed for conjugate vaccine production for disease control. Bioconjugate vaccines, largely being produced by glycoengineering using PglB (the N-oligosaccharyltransferase from Campylobacter jejuni) in suitable bacterial hosts, have been highly promising with respect to their effectiveness in providing protective immunity and ease of production. Recently, a novel method of glycoconjugate vaccine production involving an O-oligosaccharyltransferase, PglL from Neisseria meningitidis, has been optimized. Nevertheless, many questions on defining antigenic determinants, glycosylation markers, species-specific differences in glycosylation machineries, etc. still remain unanswered, necessitating further exploration of the glycosylation systems of important pathogens. Hence, in this review, we will discuss the impact of bacterial protein glycosylation on its pathogenesis and the interaction of pathogens with host protein glycosylation, followed by a discussion on strategies used for bioconjugate vaccine development.

Abstract
Acinetobacter baumannii is a Gram-negative nosocomial pathogen that causes soft tissue infections in patients who spend a long time in intensive care units. This recalcitrant bacterium is very well known for developing rapid drug resistance, which is a combined outcome of its natural competence and mobile genetic elements. Successful efforts to treat these infections would be aided by additional information on the physiology of A. baumannii Toward that end, we recently reported on a small RNA (sRNA), AbsR25, in this bacterium that regulates the genes of several efflux pumps. Because sRNAs often require the RNA chaperone Hfq for assistance in binding to their cognate mRNA targets, we identified and characterized this protein in A. baumannii The homolog in A. baumannii is a large protein with an extended C terminus unlike Hfqs in other Gram-negative pathogens. The extension has a compositional bias toward glycine and, to a lower extent, phenylalanine and glutamine, suggestive of an intrinsically disordered region. We studied the importance of this glycine-rich tail using truncated versions of Hfq in biophysical assays and complementation of an hfq deletion mutant, finding that the tail was necessary for high-affinity RNA binding. Further tests implicate Hfq in important cellular processes of A. baumannii like metabolism, drug resistance, stress tolerance, and virulence. Our findings underline the importance of the glycine-rich C terminus in RNA binding, ribo-regulation, and auto-regulation of Hfq, demonstrating this hitherto overlooked protein motif to be an indispensable part of the A. baumannii Hfq.

Abstract
Fibulin-7 (Fbln7) has been identified as the latest member of the fibulin family of secreted glycoproteins in developing teeth, functioning as a cell adhesion molecule and interacting with other matrix proteins, receptors, and growth factors. More recently, we have shown that the C-terminal Fbln7 fragment (Fbln7-C) has antiangiogenic activity in vitro. Fbln7 is also expressed in immune-privileged tissues, such as eye and placenta, but its functional significance is unknown. In the current study, we show that human monocytes adhere to both full-length Fbln7 (Fbln7-FL) and Fbln7-C, in part, via integrins α5β1 and α2β1. Morphologic studies and surface expression analyses of CD14, mannose receptor (CD206), major histocompatibility complex II, and CD11b receptors revealed that both Fbln7-FL and Fbln7-C inhibit M-CSF-induced monocyte differentiation. Fbln7-C had significantly greater negative effects on cell spreading and stress fiber formation, including the production of IL-6 and metalloproteinase-1/-9 compared with Fbln7-FL. Furthermore, in an LPS-induced systemic inflammation model, Fbln7-C and Fbln7-FL reduced the infiltration of immune cells, such as neutrophils and macrophages, to the inflamed peritoneum. Thus, these results suggest that Fbln7 and Fbln7-C could modulate the activity of immune cells and have therapeutic potential for inflammatory diseases.-Sarangi, P. P., Chakraborty, P., Dash, S.

Abstract
Auxin levels are tightly regulated within the plant cell, and its storage in the isolated cavity of proteins is a measure adopted by cells to maintain the availability of auxin. We report the first crystal structure of Wrightia tinctoria 11S globulin (WTG) in complex with Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), an auxin, at 1.7 Å resolution. WTG hexamers assemble as a result of the stacking interaction between the hydrophobic surfaces of two trimers, leaving space for the binding of charged ligands. The bound auxin is stabilized by non-covalent interactions, contributed by four chains in each cavity. The presence of bound ligand was confirmed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) and high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS). Here, we hypothesize that the cleavage of globulins by endopeptidases leads to the movement of the hydrophilic loop region from the surface to the periphery, leaving space for the binding of auxin, and promotes hexamer formation. As the process of germination proceeds, there is a change in the pH, which induces the dissociation of the hexamer and the release of auxin. The compact hexameric assembly ensures the long-term, stable storage of the hormone. This suggests a role for globulin as a novel player in auxin homeostasis.

Abstract
Bovine milk and its products (e.g. cheese, yoghurt) are an important part of human diet with beneficial effects for all ages. Although analyses of different milk components (e.g. proteins, lipids) pose huge challenges, the use of mass spectrometric (MS)-based techniques is steadily improving our understanding of the complexity of the biological traits that effect milk yield and its components to meet the global demand arising from population growth. In addition, different milk constituents have various applications in veterinary research and medicine, including early disease diagnosis. The aim of the review is to present an overview of the progress made in MS-based analysis of milk, and suggest a multi-pronged MS strategy to better explore different milk components for translational and clinical utilities.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of Sjögren's syndrome (SS) likely involves complex interactions between genes and the environment. While the candidate gene approach has been previously used to identify several genes associated with SS, two recent large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have implicated many more loci as genetic risk factors. Of particular relevance, was the significant association of SS with additional immune-related genes including IL12A, BLK, and CXCR5. GWAS has also uncovered other loci and suggestive gene associations in SS, but none are related to genes encoding salivary or lacrimal components, secretion machinery and neuronal proteins involved in innervations of the glands, respectively. In this review, we discuss these genetic findings with particular attention paid to the genes identified, the strength of associations, and how the SS-associated genes compare to what has been discovered previously in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). We also summarize the potential impact of these associated gene products on NFκB and immune pathways and describe how this new information might be integrated further for identifying clinical subsets and understanding the pathogenesis of SS.

Abstract
We have documented the antimicrobial activity of pouch secretions of the tammar wallaby, Macropus eugenii, over the period leading up to birth and after birth of the young animal. This activity was greatest against the Gram-negative Escherichia coli and highest at the time of birth. Fractionation of the pouch secretions showed that activity at different times over the reproductive periods was associated with different molecular-weight (MW) components, with compounds in the range up to 50 kDa active immediately prior to and at the time of birth. Proteomic analysis using 1 and 2DE PAGE and LC-MS/MS identified the major components of the pouch secretions at these times, at a range of pI's and MWs. The majority of high-confidence identifications, at a wide range of pI's and MW, were beta-lactoglobulin, a known component of marsupial milk. We subsequently conducted a proteomic analysis of mammary gland secretions and digest products from the gut of the young animal, using 2DE PAGE and MALDI MS/MS, to confirm its source and compare it with the observed MW and pI's of beta-lactoglobulin. Although we did not directly identify an effector molecule responsible for antimicrobial activity, these results lead us to propose that beta-lactoglobulin plays a role in the protection of the young marsupial, a role previously thought to be primarily due to specific secretions from the epithelial surface of the pouch.

Abstract
Two approaches have been used to isolate and identify proteins of the granules of neutrophils of the tammar wallaby, Macropus eugenii. Stimulation with PMA, Ionomycin and calcium resulted in exocytosis of neutrophil granules as demonstrated with electron microscopy. However proteomic analysis using two dimensional gel electrophoresis, in-gel trypsin digestion followed by nano liquid chromatography coupled tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) failed to identify any anticipated granule proteins in the reaction supernatants. Subsequent use of differential centrifugation and lysis followed by the application of the same proteomic analysis approach resulted in the isolation and confident identification of 39 proteins, many of which are known to be present in the granules of neutrophils of eutherian mammals or play a role in degranulation. These proteins notably consisted of the known antimicrobials, myeloperoxidase (MPO), serine proteinase, dermcidin, lysozyme and alkaline phosphatase. A number of important known antimicrobials, however, were not detected and these include defensins and cathelicidins. This is the first report of the neutrophil granule proteins of any marsupial and complements previous reports on the cytosolic proteins.
