Analysis of Iron Storage Proteins in Chicken Liver Comparison with Different Fowls by Mass Spectroscopy and
SDS PAGE
Introduction:
The present experiment was undertaken to elucidate the phylogenetic
analysis and also to find out various type of proteins present in liver of four
different types of fowls like Broilers and layers. The main difference between
layers and broiler are. An egg laying poultry is called egger or layer whereas
broilers are reared for obtaining meat[1]. So a layer should be able to produce more
number of large sized eggs, without growing too much. On the other hand, a
broiler should yield more meat and hence should be able to grow well [9]. The
housing, nutritional and environmental requirements of broilers are different from
layers. Broilers are fed with vitamin-rich supplementary feed for good growth rate
and better feed efficiency. The ratio for broilers is protein rich with adequate fat.
The layers on the other hand show two distinct phases in their life i.e. the growing
period and laying period[1]. During the growing period, they need enough space.
Over-crowding tends to suppress their growth. Feed is given in a restricted and
calculated manner. During the laying period, the layers need enough space and
adequate lighting. Feed with vitamins, minerals and micronutrients influence the
hatching of eggs[4]. Layers are provided with fibrous cheaper diets using
agricultural by-products.
Poultry meat is an important source of high quality proteins, minerals and
vitamins to balance the human diet. Specially developed breeds of chicken meat
(broiler) are now available with the ability of quick growth and high feed
conversion efficiency [10]. Poultry manure has high fertilizer value and can be used
for increasing yield of all crops. Broiler farming has several advantages: firstly the
initial investment is low, and there is a faster[3] return from the investment. The
rearing period is 6 to 7 weeks only and more number of flocks can be taken in the
same shed and also the amount of protein obtained from a broiler is high when
compared to layer[8].
So, to know the amount of protein and the type of proteins present in
different varieties we prefer SDS PAGE analysis of the chicken liver sample [7]. It
is a very common method for separating proteins by electrophoresis uses a
discontinuous polyacrylamide gel as a support medium and sodium dodecyl sulfate
(SDS) to denature the proteins. The method is called sodium dodecyl sulfate
polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE). SDS (also called lauryl sulfate)
is an anionic detergent[5]. That is when dissolved its molecules have a net negative
charge within a wide pH range. The negative charges on SDS destroy most of the
complex structure of proteins, and are strongly attracted toward an anode
(positively-charged electrode) in an electric field[2]. If proteins of known mass are
run simultaneously with the unknowns, the relationship between retardation factor
(Rf) and mass can be plotted, and the masses of unknown proteins estimated.
Protein separation by SDS-PAGE can be used to estimate relative molecular
mass, to determine the relative abundance of major proteins in a sample, and to
determine the distribution of proteins among fractions[2]. The purity of protein
samples can be assessed and the progress of a fractionation or purification
procedure can be followed. Different staining methods can be used to detect rare
proteins and to learn something about their biochemical properties. Here we used
spectrophotometric analysis to know the concentration of the protein sample.
In the present study, we investigated the proteomes in chicken liver different
fowl’s viz. Natural fowl male and female, broilers and layers in order to identify
biologically important proteins.

Methodology
Tissue collection (Fig-1)
Four different types of fowl tissues were collected from Vijayawada (i.e.,
broilers, layers and natural fowl male and natural fowl female). The liver tissue
were collected and rinsed with distilled water to remove bound particles and other
impurities if any. Then the tissue is cut into small pieces which are considered as a
primary sample for the experiment.
Protein extraction:
1. About 200mg of tissue from each fowl is taken, homogenized with the help
of mortar and pestle using equal amount of 0.5M Tris-Hcl buffer (pH 7.5)
and 10% SDS buffer.
2. The resulting homogenates were centrifuged at 15000rpm for 30 minutes and
then the supernatants were collected into the fresh autoclaved vials
3. Again centrifuge the whole content by adding 0.5M Tris- Hcl at 15000rpm
for 30 minutes
4. Dissolve the obtained pellet in Tris-Hcl, wait until the pellet gets dissolved
and then process the pellet to SDS PAGE analysis to obtain the type of
protein’s present in the sample.
Lowry’s Method Procedure:
1. 0.2 ml of BSA working standard in 5 test tubes and make up to 1ml
using distilled watetr.
2. The test tube with 1 ml distilled water serve as blank.
3. Add 4.5 ml of Reagent I and incubate for 10 minutes.
4. After incubation add 0.5 ml of reagent II and incubate for 30 minutes
5. Measure the absorbance at 660 nm and plot the standard graph.
6. Estimate the amount of protein present in the given sample from the
standard graph.
Protein profiling using SDS PAGE:
Electrophoresis was carried out in a discontinuous SDS PAGE system using
10% acrylamide gel for resolving, 4% acrylamide gel for stalking. SDS PAGE was
performed at constant voltage of 50 Volts.
Staning and Destaining of SDS PAGE:
1. in the 500mL of the storage solution for at least 1 hr. The gel should return to
its original dimensions during 1. After electrophoresis, the gel is washed off
the glass plates with 500 mL of the gel-fixing solution and soaked in that
solution for 1hr. The purpose of this step is to gently remove the gel from the
plate and begin washing the SDS-containing gel buffers out of the gel.
2. 2. Cover the gel with 500mL of the gel-washing
solution(Staining/Coomassive), and continue to fix the proteins in the gel by
incubating overnight at room temperature on a rocking table with gentle
agitation. The gel should be covered during this process to avoid
contamination and to prevent the evaporation of the solution. At the end of the
time, remove the solution by aspiration.
3. 3. Cover the gel with 400mL of the Coomassie stain. Stain the gel at room
temperature for 3 to 4 hr with gentle agitation. The Coomassie stain is removed
by aspiration after staining.
4. 4. Cover the gel with 250mL of the destaning solution and allow the gel to
destain with gentle agitation. The destain solution should be changed several
times, removing it at each change by aspiration. Continue the destaining until
the protein bands are seen without background staining of the gel.
5. Equilibrate the gel this process.
6. Store the gel in the storage solution as needed.

Series1
From the above graph we can say that the concentration of Natural fowl female
was less i.e.0.346 and the protein concentration of broiler is obtained high.
In the presence of SDS PAGE banding pattern of chicken liver obtained from four
different sources of fowls. It showed a very distinct polymorphism in
electrophoretic pattern. A total of 10 polypeptide bands were observed from four
different sources. A few bands that was observed in one variety is absent in other.
Fig 1: It shows various bands obtained after SDS PAGE analysis
P1- Broilers (male) P2 Natural fowl (male) P3 layer (female)
P4-Natural fowl (female)
From the obtained results we say that the cross breeding can be
done between P1 and P4
i.e. highly evolved genotypes can be done by which we can
increase the protein content.
Conclusion:Electrophoretic examination of the different Chicken liver proteins had
revealed that there is genetic diversity among different genotypes which was
observed through image processing [6]. So, we can recommend the genetically
diversified species for further breeding programs to obtain a better Fowls with
more protein content .Which can be done with the help of crossbreeding or gene
transfer techniques.
