Differentially expressed salivary gland proteins between the susceptible Kis and resistant AceRKis strains.

Protein identification was performed using MALDI-TOF MS or nanoLC ESI MS/MS (underlined spot#) analysis. Insecta entries of Swiss-Prot and TrEMBL databases were searched by using the MASCOT algorithm, or the Proteome Discoverer software for nanoLC ESI MS/MS spectra. All spots displayed a power >0.9. Spot# refers to the SameSpots analysis spot number (see Figure 1A); SP indicates the presence of a signal peptide for secretion as predicted by SignalP 4.0 (SP°: SP in the N-terminal homolog Q5TV62_ANOGA); Fold: fold difference in expression levels between the two strains; Accession: accession number in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot or UniProtKB/TrEMBL databases (_ANOGA); pI: isoelectric point; Cover: indicates the amino acid coverage (%); *Mascot Score is provided for MALDI-TOF protein identification; for nanoLC ESI MS/MS based identification the peptide sequences and the number of peptides are provided as supporting information (Table S1). Translation IF: Translation Initiation Factor.
