Abstract:
Understanding the basic solubilization of fish myofibrillar proteins (MPs) in common monovalent chloride solutions is crucial for muscle food processing. In this study, the differential proteomic profiles of MPs during extraction and solubilization in NaCl and KCl solutions were investigated by using advanced four-dimensional data-independent acquisition (4D DIA) quantitative proteomics for the first time. Compared to routine biochemical analysis, this could provide insights into the solubilization of muscle proteins. We ensure the consistency of the effective ionic strength of NaCl and KCl buffers by adjusting the conductivity. The results showed that NaCl extractor mainly facilitated the solubilization of cytoskeletal proteins, biochemical enzymes, and stromal proteins compared to KCl, such as tubulin, myosin-9, collagen, plectin, protein phosphatase, and cathepsin D. However, no significant difference was observed in the extraction of major sarcomeric proteins, including myosin, actin, troponin C, myosin-binding protein C, M-Protein, α-actinin-3, and tropomyosin.
