Frequency distribution analysis based on all peptides (n = 131).

Mathematical calculations are based on the following parameter and calculations:

occ(up) = Sum of all occurrences for each individual protease in the up-regulated peptides,

occ(down) = Sum of all occurrences for each individual protease in the down-regulated peptides,

N(up) = Total number of peptides being up-regulated,

N(down) = Total number of peptides being down-regulated,

% frequency(up) = (occ(up)/N(up)) * 100.

% frequency(down) = (occ(down)/N(down)) * 100.

% frequency difference ratio = | ((freq%(up) − freq%(down))/(freq%(up)+freq%(down)) * 100 |.

Frequency scores = %freq * (occ(up)-occ(down)).
