Table 1. Summary of MALDI-TOF MS results from the excised protein bands.
| Band | MOWSEScorea | MassesMatchedb | Coveragec | MW (Da) | Protein |
| 90 kDa | 115 | 100% | 22% | 74560 | NF90 |
| 140 kDa | 84 | 84% | 13% | 140869 | RHA |
| 42 kDa | 182 | 89% | 38% | 44669 | NF45 |
a
The MOWSE score reflects the probability that the submitted masses are not a random match; scores greater than 76 (P<0.05) are considered significant.
b
Number of masses that were matched with predicted peptides with high probability.
c
Coverage refers to the percentage of the protein that was spanned by the predicted peptides.
