Identification and putative function of proteins excised from the EBPR55 2D-PAGE gel and analysed by mass spectrometry (spot numbers refer to those in Fig. 3).

aAbbreviations: OZP: OZ sludge, Phrap assembly; USJ: US sludge, Jazz assembly; USP: US sludge, Phrap assemblybAssignment is based on the IMG/M binning of the genomic sequences. Sequences were binned as ��A. phosphatis�� as determined by US/OZ overlap [4]. Sequences assigned to other ��Accumulibacter�� contains sequences that belong to the genus ��Accumulibacter�� but not the species ��A. phosphatis��cThe % nucleotide identity of the MASCOT matched sequence against the ��A. phosphatis�� sequence.
