The table shows those proteins that are differentially expressed between DS and Ctl pregnancies in the second trimester in the pH range 4.5 - 5.5. All results displayed here are from ESI Q-TOF MS/MS analysis. Identified proteins are given with UniProt accession number, average fold up-regulation in DS samples compared to Ctl samples (from DeCyder analysis; comparable to Progenesis), theoretical molecular weight and pI (calculated using the Compute pI/mW function available on the ExPASy website, full amino acid sequence used including signal peptides), search score and number of peptides used for identification. The sequences of the peptides used for the identification of the protein spots (M indicates methionine oxidation) and their position within the protein sequence are shown; also the function of the protein. Coverage indicates the percentage of the residues in each protein sequence that was identified. Score is -10*Log(P), where P is the probability that the observed match is a random event. Scores > 46 indicate identity or extensive homology at the p < 0.05 level.
