Figure 4

Example urinary MUPs from both sexes of (a) domesticus and (b) musculus resolved by native gel electrophoresis, with average intact mass profiles (derived by ESI-MS) presented to the right of gel images. Each electrophoretically resolvable band (labelled A through E) was assigned to one or more MUPs by in-gel digestion, followed by peptide mass fingerprinting by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (see Supplementary Figs S2 and S3). The intact mass of each of these MUPs was also confirmed as present in the intact mass profiles.
