a

Many proteins appear in more than one spot on a 2D gel (see text). Each of the proteins listed in this table were observed in at least one spot which contained no other detectable proteins, even though some of them were also observed in other spots containing one or more other proteins.

b

Number of peptides sequenced and matched to the identified protein.

c

Percent of entire protein sequence covered by observed peptides.

d

Subcellular fraction in which the target protein was observed.

e

Other chemicals whose reactive metabolites are also known to target the same protein. Abbreviations: 1,4-BQ, 1,4-benzoquinone; 1,4-NQ, 1,4-naphthoquinone; AMAP, m-hydroxyacetanilide; APAP, p-hydroxyacetanilide; ATRZ, atrazine; BB, bromobenzene; BENZ, benzene; BHT, butylated hydroxytoluene; COC, cocaine; DACT, diaminochlorotriazine; DCE, 1,1-dichloroehtylene; FCXC, flucloxacillin; HAL, halothane; MCTP, monocrotaline pyrrole; MYCO, mycophenolic acid; NAPH, naphthalene; TB, thiobenzamide; TEUC, teucrin; TFEC, S-(1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethyl) cysteine.
