Insight into the molecular composition of cellular microenvironments is essential for understanding their function. Membraneless organelles (MLO), such as the nuclear Cajal body (CB), play fundamental roles in eukaryotic cells, but their very nature poses a challenge to biochemical isolation. Despite the relevance of the CB for cell function in plants and animals, its proteome remains to be profiled. Here, we purify plant CBs using a combination of biochemical isolation and fluorescence-activated particle sorting (FAPS) and define their proteome by mass spectrometry. Our work identifies 15 and 95 proteins uniquely localized and enriched in CBs, respectively, of which 22 are also labelled by CB markers in proximity labelling assays. CB proteins are preferentially involved in RNA processing, chromatin organization, and gene expression. While a partial overlap with known animal CB proteins exists, our data reveal a distinct, kingdom-specific CB proteome. These results provide the first comprehensive proteome of CBs and establishes a foundation for dissecting the molecular functions of this organelle across multicellular lineages.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
