Characterization and Physiological Function of Class I Low-Molecular-Mass, Heat-Shock Protein Complex in Soybean

Examination of an ammonium sulfate-enriched fraction (70-100% saturation) of heat-shock proteins (HSPs) by nondenaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed the presence of a high molecular mass complex (280 kD) in soybean (Glycine max) seedlings. This complex cross-reacted with antibodies raised against soybean class I low-molecular-mass (LMW) HSPs. Dissociation of the complex by denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed the complex to contain at least 15 polypeptides of the 15-to 18-kD class I LMW HSPs that could be detected by staining, radiolabeling, and western blotting. A similar LMW-HSP complex was observed in mung bean (Vigna radiata L.; 295 kD), in pea (Pisum sativum L.; 270 kD), and in rice (Oryza sativa L.; 310 kD). The complex was stable under high salt conditions (250 mM KCI), and the integrity was not affected by 1% Nonidet P-40 and 3 [mu]g/ML RNase treatment. The size of the isolated HSP complex in vitro was conserved to 55[deg]C; however, starting at 37.5[deg]C, it changed to higher molecular forms in the presence of soluble proteins. The isolated HSP complex was able to protect up to 75% of the soluble proteins from heat denaturation in vitro.
