The immunodominant protein dots were subjected to trypase digestion and LC-MS/MS identification. The results were subjected to bioinformation retrieval, signal peptide prediction, subcellular localizations confirmation and searching for metabolism pathways.
a. The Arabic numbers are concord with the gel and PVDF membrane.
b. The metabolism pathways of identified proteins were searched in the Web of http://www.kegg.com/.
c. Signal peptide prediction was accomplished through SignalP 3.0 software (http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/SignalP/). “+”,with signaling peptide; “-” without signaling peptide.
d. Subcellular localizations were predicted by PSORTb v2.0 software (http://www.psort.org/). C, Cytoplasmic; P, Periplasmic; OM, Outer Membrane
