TABLE 2.

Functional Gene Ontology annotations of the S. mansoni egg secretome. GO annotations for the most abundant egg secreted proteins (22 proteins, Top 50% ESP) are compared to the GO annotations for both the entire egg secretome identified in this study (188 proteins, Total ESP) and the approximately 650 non-fragmentary schistosome proteins of the NCBI non-redundant data bank (NCBI nr).
