[i] The absence of proteins from the extracellular proteome of the parental strain 168 is indicated with −, and their presence with +, ++, or +++ if the protein is present at low, average, or high levels, respectively. Proteins present at elevated levels in the medium of theΔIgt strain are indicated with ++ or +++. Proteins that are induced upon phosphate starvation are indicated withpst. Proteins with a twin-arginine motif in the signal peptide are marked RR. Lipoproteins are indicated withlipo. Extracellular proteins containing typical wall-binding repeats in the mature part are marked with W.
