Functional analysis of the excretory/secretory proteins identified in E. granulosus adult worms. Gene ontology terms for the subcategories molecular function (a), cellular component (b), and biological process (c) were assigned to the proteins identified in the adult worms. KOG functional categories (d) were assigned to the proteins identified in the adult worms. The percentage and number (in parentheses) of proteins identified in each functional category are indicated in each sector. KOG functional categories: (Z) cytoskeleton; (O) posttranslational modification, protein turnover, chaperones; (G) carbohydrate transport and metabolism; (C) energy production and conversion; (noKOG) protein not assigned to any KOG category. The number of proteins in the graph might exceed the total number of identified proteins because some were grouped into more than one functional category
