The analysis of proteomes from aerobic and photosynthetic Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 cell cultures by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry yielded approximately 6,500 high confidence peptides representing 1,675 gene products (39% of the predicted proteins). The identified proteins corresponded primarily to open reading frames (ORFs) contained within the two chromosomal elements of this bacterium, but a significant number were also observed from ORFs associated with 5 naturally occurring plasmids. Using the accurate mass and time (AMT) tag approach, comparative studies showed that a number of proteins were uniquely detected within the photosynthetic cell culture. The estimated abundances of proteins observed in both aerobic respiratory and photosynthetic grown cultures were compared to provide insights into bioenergetic models for both modes of growth. Additional emphasis was placed on gene products annotated as hypothetical to gain information as to their potential roles within these two growth conditions. Where possible, transcriptome and proteome data for R. sphaeroides obtained under the same culture conditions were also compared.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D010788	Photosynthesis	The synthesis by organisms of organic chemical compounds, especially carbohydrates, from carbon dioxide using energy obtained from light rather than from the oxidation of chemical compounds. Photosynthesis comprises two separate processes: the light reactions and the dark reactions. In higher plants; GREEN ALGAE; and CYANOBACTERIA; NADPH and ATP formed by the light reactions drive the dark reactions which result in the fixation of carbon dioxide.
