探究秦川牛宰后成熟过程中线粒体Tu翻译延长因子(mitochondrial Tu translation elongation factor,TUFM)表达对肉的持水性影响。以秦川牛背最长肌为研究对象,测定4℃不同成熟时间下的pH值、贮藏损失、离心损失、蒸煮损失、水分分布、...探究秦川牛宰后成熟过程中线粒体Tu翻译延长因子(mitochondrial Tu translation elongation factor,TUFM)表达对肉的持水性影响。以秦川牛背最长肌为研究对象,测定4℃不同成熟时间下的pH值、贮藏损失、离心损失、蒸煮损失、水分分布、肌原纤维蛋白等指标变化情况,测定不同成熟时间(0、96、192 h)下TUFM表达量及其含量、Beclin1蛋白表达量。结果显示:在秦川牛宰后成熟期间,肌原纤维蛋白发生降解,TUFM的表达量与Beclin1蛋白表达量和牛肉的持水性存在密切关系,其中蛋白质组学测定的TUFM表达量变化与TUFM含量变化趋势一致,Beclin1蛋白表达量、贮藏损失、离心损失、蒸煮损失整体均呈先上升后下降趋势,pH值呈先下降后上升趋势;Pearson相关性分析表明,牛背最长肌中TUFM表达量与低场核磁共振峰面积比P_(2b)、Beclin1蛋白表达量呈极显著正相关(P<0.01),与贮藏损失、离心损失、蒸煮损失呈显著正相关(P<0.05),与P_(21)呈极显著负相关(P<0.01),与P_(22)呈显著负相关(P<0.05),与pH值无显著相关性(P>0.05)。通过蛋白质组学鉴定出23种与TUFM相关的差异蛋白,通过基因本体论、京都基因与基因组百科全书通路分析发现,差异蛋白可通过多种途径参与能量代谢,进而介导细胞自噬;对差异蛋白和持水性指标进行Pearson相关性分析发现,有5种差异蛋白(ATP5F1D、EEF1A2、GSPT1、NDUFB5、SUCLG1)与持水性指标具有显著相关性(P<0.05、P<0.01)。分析可知,包括TUFM在内,共6种蛋白主要通过能量代谢和氧转运等途径正向或负向影响细胞自噬,从而影响肉的持水性。展开更多
