Comparison of C. briggsae proteomes identified by iTRAQ in this study and those by SILAC in a previous study29. (A) Venn diagram showing the total number of proteins identified by iTRAQ (blue) or SILAC (yellow) in all three replicates of L1 and L4 larval stages. Note only about a third of the proteomes is shared between the two methods. (B) A heat map showing the correlation of fold changes of the proteins/transcripts in larval stages versus embryonic stages identified by iTRAQ or SILAC. Protein or transcript samples measured in the previous study are indicated with “silac” or “rpkm”, respectively. Correlations of fold changes detected by iTRAQ between L1 and L4 stages are indicated with an arrowhead or an arrow for replicates 1 and 3 or replicate 2, respectively.
