Comparison of proteins differentially expressed in wAu, wAlbA and wt midguts of Aedes aegypti. Pooled midguts were analysed by mass spectrometry to determine proteins that show significant alterations in expression between midguts containing wAu, wAlbA and wt (uninfected) N = 5. (a) Principal component analysis of all quantified proteins, each dot represents a single replicate. (b) Clustered heatmap of significantly dysregulated proteins when wAu or wAlbA are present compared to wt. (c) mass spectrometry quantitation of 3379 proteins identified from midguts of Ae. aegypti. Proteins present at significantly different levels are highlighted in red (up regulated) or blue (down regulated), dashed line denotes p-value threshold for a false discovery rate of 5%. Top 20 differentially regulated Aedes proteins are labelled, with most enriched Wolbachia proteins in grey.
