Peptides in mung bean seeds and sprouts were extracted as previously described with some modification [23 (link)]. The samples were quickly grounded in liquid nitrogen using a dry ice-cooled mortar and pestle, 5 g of bean powder was then dissolved in extraction buffer containing 1% TFA and 1% plant protease inhibitor (Sigma-Aldrich, MO, USA). Mixed samples were homogenized at 4 °C for 1 h and then sonicated with five short bursts of 6 s followed by intervals of 8 s for cooling on the ice. After that, samples were centrifuged at 10,000g for 20 min at 4 °C and filtered in an Amicon Ultracel 10 kDa Molecular weight (Mw) cut-off centrifuge filter tube (Millipore, MA, USA) by centrifugation (4 °C, 8000g) to remove peptides larger than 10 kDa. The desalting process, mass spectrometry conditions, and the data analysis were the same as the above proteomics analysis, except the peptide separation time was 60 min. Finally, the relative intensity of the peptide was obtained.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Throughout this study, we used Q strain of CMV (Q-CMV) [12 (link)] and its sat-RNA (Qsat-RNA) [3 (link)]. Characteristic features of Agrobacterium-based T-DNA constructs of the three genomic RNAs of Q-CMV and Qsat-RNA are as previously described [12 (link), 13 (link)]. Wild-type Nicotiana benthamiana leaves were infiltrated with CMV agrocultures [14 ] [15 (link)]. Either healthy or four days post infiltrated (dpi) N. benthamiana leaves with CMV agrotransformants were used to prepare the total protein extract. Briefly, leaves were ground in liquid nitrogen, and total protein was extracted in 3 volumes of extraction buffer (20 mM Tris-Cl [pH 7.5], 300 mM NaCl, 5 mM MgCl2, 5 mM DTT, 1% plant protease inhibitor [Sigma, USA]). The liquid extract was centrifuged at 12,000 rpm for 15 minutes at 4°C, and the supernatant was collected for subsequent experiments.
