Popis: ABSTRACT: The composition and content of goat milk proteins are affected by many factors and have been extensively studied. However, variation in whey protein composition in goat milk throughout the lactation cycle has not been clarified. In the current study, 15 dairy goats were selected, and milk samples were collected at 1, 3, 30, 90, 150, and 240 d after delivery. Whey proteins were separated and digested and then identified using data-independent acquisition (DIA) and data-dependent acquisition proteomics approaches. Protein profiles identified using DIA were consistent with those of the data-dependent acquisition proteomics approach according to clustering and principal component analyses. Significant differences in the abundance of 238 proteins around the lactation cycle were identified using the DIA approach. Developmental changes of the whey proteome corresponding to lactation stage were revealed: plasminogen, α-2-macroglobulin, and fibronectin levels decreased from d 1 to 240, whereas polymeric immunoglobulin receptor, nucleobindin 2, fatty acid-binding protein 3, and lactoperoxidase increased from d 1 to 240. Protein-protein interaction analysis showed that fibronectin with a higher degree of connectivity is a central node. The findings are of great significance to better understanding the potential role of specific proteins and the mechanism of protein biosynthesis or intercellular transport in the mammary glands related to the physiological changes of dairy goats.
