Identification with LC-MS/MS of the proteins present in the 4 upregulated and 4 downregulated spots in the liver of albumen-deprived chicks at hatch compared to either the control chicks or the sham chicks or both (n = 6).

The spot number (Spot), Uniprot accession number (Uniprot ID), theoretical iso-electric point (pI), theoretical molecular weight (Mass), Mascot score, number of matched peptides (Queries) and sequence coverage (Coverage) are shown. The cellular localization (Location) is also indicated: Cm = cell membrane, Cp = cytoplasm, Cs = cell surface, Mt = mitochondria, Nu = nucleus, Pl = plasma and Rb = Ribosome. The mean fluorescence (Cy3 or Cy5) of the different spots normalized according to the fluorescence signal of the pooled sample (Cy2) ± SEM are shown in the table for the control, sham and albumen-deprived chicks. a–b Within a row, treatment means with different superscript are significantly different (PGallus gallus).
