Infrared spectrum, UV-visible absorption spectrum and differential expression of proteome between Spirulina platensis (SP) and selenium enriched SP (Se. SP) were investigated. The selenium containing proteins were separated from the total proteins in Se. SP by a proteomic approach of two. dimensional electrophoresis (2DE), identified by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time. of. flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS), and determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Results showed that Se enrichment cultivation could significantly up. regulate the expression of pigment proteins such as alpha/beta subunits of phycocyanin (PC) and allophycocyanin (APC) which involved in light harvest. The large subunits of Rbisco and superoxide dismutase were also increased obviously in Se. SP. In addition, it was found that Se was abundantly distributed in the range of pH 4-7 and M-W of 14.4-43 kDa in the 2DE gel. Individuals of Se containing protein should be explored in Se. SP in further studies.
