Abstract: Induced by harmless inducer, the EGCG content of tea shoots improved 20.15%~25.00%. To probe into the molecular mechanism, the immobilized pH gradient two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to separate the total proteins of induced tea shoots and normal tea shoots. The two- dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis map with high resolution and repeatability was produced. Differential expression analysis indicated that 14 specific proteins were emerged in induced shoot and 8 disappeared, 11 expressed above ten-fold, and 6 below one-tenth. Two differential protein spots were selected for MALDI-TOF-MS to determine the post-enzymolysis peptide mass fingerprinting. Using Mascot to search NCBInr database on website at http://www.matrixscience.com. The results were as follows: one was photosystem I iron-sulfur protein, and the another unkown. The results showed that there were proteome difference between induced and normal tea shoots, that the specific protein might play an important part during inducing process.
