Plants exposed to high temperature causes inhibition of photosynthesis, cell membrane damage and cell death. Plants have a number of protective systems against deleterious stress effects through the synthesis of proteins and enzymes. This study was performed to investigate the effects of heat stress on synthesis of proteins and reactive oxygen species scavenging enzymes in fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graceum) plants. The plants were exposed to 30 ºC, 35 ºC and 40 ºC for 4 hrs and 6 hrs to induce heat stress. Catalase and peroxidase assays were performed to determine the defense mechanisms by T. foenum-graceum plants against reactive oxygen species produced due to heat stress. There was an increased enzymatic activity in response to exposure time and temperature. Proteins were extracted from heat stressed plants and SDS-PAGE analysis revealed the variation among the protein bands and high level of gene expression results in synthesis of proteins having molecular weight of 30 - 60 kDa. MALDI-TOF-MS was used to compare the peptide mass fingerprinting (PMF) data with SWISS-PORT and NCBI database for the identification of expressed proteins in response to heat stress.
