Proteomic analysis of chicory root identifies proteins typically involved in cold acclimation

Chicory (Cichorium intybus) roots contain high amounts of inulin, a fructose polymer used as a storage carbohydrate by the plant and as a human dietary and prebiotic compound. We performed 2-D electrophoretic analysis of proteins from root material before the first freezing period. The proteins were...
