Table shows 32 proteins identified using GFP-/EYFP-/RFP-constructs, as mentioned also in Materials and Methods section. Also here proteins are listed alphabetically with the corresponding gene name, molecular weight (in kDa), function and predominant cellular localization. The rightmost columns describe not only the detection method but also predominant time of their release into lumen and whenever possible also genotype reference.
