The changes in soluble proteins induced by Ce4+ were analyzed in suspension cultures of Taxus cuspidata using two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The ultrastructure of cells obviously changed at day 4 after addition of Ce4+. Large amount of nuclear DNA fragments of about 200 bp were observed. Thirteen protein spots were different between the cultures grown with and without Ce4+ at day 4 as well as at day 6 after addition of Ce4+.

Keywords: Ce4+; programmed cell death; protein; two-dimensional gel electrophoresis
Subjects: cerium, protein patterns; in vitro culture, suspension culture; programmed cell death; proteins, patterns, cerium-induced, suspension culture in vitro; Taxus cuspidata
