Analysis of the Wolbachia proteome of adult female Brugia malayi. Wolbachia proteins identified by proteomic and high resolution mass spectrometric analysis were filtered to report only high/medium confidence peptides then ranked according to protein sequence coverage observed (top 20 shown). The presence of predicted lipoprotein, Peptidoglycan-Associated Lipoprotein (Wbm0152), was confirmed by spectral matching of MSMS data against a customised protein sequence database to two unique tryptic peptides (MASCOT ion scores p < 0.05/FDR 5%) constituting 20.13% total protein sequence coverage; it is positioned within the top 10 proteins in this ranked list (*).
