Table 1 Glossina morsitans submorsitans salivary secreted proteins identified by mass spectrometry. Database searches were performed against the Glossina entries of the SwissProt or TrEMBL databases with the MASCOT software. Molecular mass, pI and sequence coverage are shown. All the MASCOT scores are > 47 (p < 0.05)
From: Identification of a Tsal152–75 salivary synthetic peptide to monitor cattle exposure to tsetse flies
