Updated project metadata. A shotgun proteomic approach was used to obtain comprehensive dataset of cumin proteins. For this purpose we applied a one dimensional electrophoresis coupled with high resolution mass spectrometry. The first step in our proteome analysis strategy, we evaluate different extraction methods, based on differential solubility of protein. Among those methods, Readyprep protein extraction kit provide high purity of protein extract, gave higher protein yield and typically good resolution of protein bands on one dimensional gel electrophoresis. Further nanoLC-MS/MS analysis by state-of-the-art linear ion trap (LTQ)-Orbitrap Velose mass spectrometer resulted in identification of very high number proteins. Bioinformatics analysis provide functional distribution of identified protein. To our knowledge, this is the first study aimed for in depth study of cumin proteome.
