Protein families with protective functions found in gland mucus.

At least one member of these families of proteins with protective functions was found in 2–3 samples of human mucus, with (n) indicating the total number of family members found in human gland mucus. MW is shown as kDa. The full list of 102 protective proteins is found in S3 Table and S4 Table. Abbreviations: GBP, Galectin binding protein; DMBT-1, Deleted in malignant brain tumors 1 protein; HSC 71, Heat shock cognate 71 kDa protein; LE inhibitor, Leukocyte elastase inhibitor; PS-A2, pulmonary surfactant A2; 40S RP, 40S ribosomal proteins; and SA A-1, Serum amyloid A-1.
