MALDI-TOF mass fingerprinting data of the nine differentially expressed proteins isolated from Metarhizium anisopliae infecting Coptotermes curvignathus. Proteome changes in the infecting fungus were compared in a time-line post-inoculation (PI) experiment to control proteins, extracted from 2D electrophoresis gels prior to identification.
