^aLipoprotein predictions (SpLip). Given counts are “probable” and “possible” hits combined.

^bSignal peptide prediction (SignalP) were not counted when SpLip predicted a lipidation signal for the protein.

^cThe predictions of a single transmembrane helix (TMHMM) was not counted as such when located within the N-terminal 60 amino acids and SignalP predicted a signal protein or SpLip a lipidation site.
