UNASSIGNED: @entity12956 ( @entity12956 ) is endemic within domestic @entity233 populations. Yellow semen is of lower quality and, when used for insemination, results in reduced fertility and hatchability. Little is known about the etiology of @entity12956 . The aim of this study was to compare the proteome of white and yellow seminal plasma of @entity233 using 1) 2-dimensional difference gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE) to quantify seminal plasma proteins and 2) matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry to identify the proteins that are differentially abundant in white and yellow seminal plasma. A total of 49 protein spots (30 upregulated and 19 downregulated) were differentially expressed in yellow seminal plasma compared with white seminal plasma. Transthyretin and serum albumin-like showed a 3-fold increase in seminal plasma from males with @entity12956 , and the latter was validated using Western blot analysis. A 3-fold increase was observed for @entity70458 -like and immunoglobulin light chain V-J-C region. Pantetheinase-like showed a 1.3-fold increase. Ovotransferrin, hepatocyte growth factor activator, @entity462 -rich secretory protein 3-like, and ferritin heavy chain-like showed a significant decrease (at least a 1.3-fold decrease) in yellow semen. Further studies are necessary to evaluate the precise function of the above-mentioned proteins in @entity12956 and to establish quality markers of @entity233 semen to predict the reproductive potential of individual @entity233 .
