Fig 1.
Venn diagrams representing the number of proteins found in each sample type, soluble somatic proteins (SSP), excretory/secretory proteins (ESP), cyst fluid proteins (CFP).
The overlap region between the circles shows proteins present in two or more stages. In parenthesis is the total protein number for the sample. A. Comparison of P. kellicotti-derived proteins by sample type B. Comparison of M. unguiculatus (host)-derived proteins by sample type.
Fig 2.
The PCA plot represents 2,137 parasite-related proteins with biological replicates that indicated distinct proteomics profile differences between soluble somatic proteins (SSP), excretory/secretory proteins (ESP), cyst fluid proteins (CFP) samples types represented with yellow, purple and pink dots, respectively.

Functional annotation of M. unguiculatus-derived proteins found in P. kellicotti samples.
Pie chart representing the percentage of proteins found in each sample with respect to NSAF values. A. soluble somatic proteins (SSP) sample type B. excretory/secretory proteins (ESP) sample type.
Fig 4.
Functional annotation of P. kellicotti-derived proteins.
Pie chart representing the percentage of proteins found in each sample type with respect to NSAF values. A. somatic soluble proteins (SSP) sample type B. excretory/secretory proteins (ESP) sample type C. cyst fluid proteins (CFP) sample type.
Table 1.
Proteins found in the CFP sample type.
In the first row are the accession numbers of each of the 37 parasite-derived proteins found in the CFP sample type. Presence of these proteins in the somatic soluble proteins (SSP) sample type and excretory/secretory proteins (ESP) sample type are marked with an asterisk. The GenBank accession number of the top blast hit and it similarity to the match is given in parenthesis. The proteins are ordered from the most to the least abundant in the CFP sample type.
