Table 2 Comparison of the experimental cytosolic sample with the complete predicted E. coli proteome with respect to the number of predicted transmembrane segments (TMS), cellular localization from the PSORT-database and experimental localization data (EXP). Shown is the amount of unique proteins and the relation to the measured number of molecules in the cell.

  1. aAnnotated attributes of the proteins depicted as logical statements. An ampersand (&) indicates that both conditions must be fulfilled ('and'), a vertical line (|) indicates 'or'. The following abbreviations are used:
  2. TMS – number of predicted transmembrane segments
  3. PSORT – localization annotation from the PSORT database (C Cytoplasmic, CM Cytoplasmic Membrane, E Extracellular, OM Outer Membrane, P Periplasmic, U Unknown, UM Unknown – this protein may have multiple localization sites)
  4. EXP – experimental localization data from [71] (C Cytoplasmic, IM Inner membrane, OM Outer Membrane, P Periplasmic)
  5. bNumber of unique proteins with the given attributes annotated
  6. cPercentage of the unique proteins relative to the sum of unique proteins in the predicted E. coli proteome or in the experimental cytosolic sample, respectively
  7. dPercentage of the actual number of protein copies found in the experimental sample, i.e. fraction of the total protein copy number sum.
