Data are the normalized spectral abundance factor (NSAF) rounded to five decimal places of each detected protein in each of three plastic bronchitis airway casts in order of abundance based on cast 1; plasmin cannot be discriminated from plasminogen and activated coagulation factors cannot be discriminated from the zymogen. The NSAF was calculated using the equation: NSAF = (SpC/MW)/Σ(SpC/MW)N, where SpC = spectral counts, MW = protein molecular weight (kD), and N = total number of proteins.
