  1. Accession is the UniProt accession number. Coverage is the ratio of the number of amino acids in all identified peptides relative to the number of amino acids in the entire protein. Peptides are the number of identified peptides for the protein. CONT1, CONT2, DEG1 and DEG2 denote abundances of respective cartilage samples. Relative ratio is the ratio of the sum of the abundances of two DEG samples relative to that of two CONT samples. Proteins are ranked by relative ratio.
