  2. bOpen reading frame number attributed by Paulsen et al. [20].
  3. cAs annotated by Paulsen et al. [20].
  4. dCalculated from the amino acid sequence of the translated open reading frame.
  5. eIncrease or decrease of protein concentrations after normalization of protein spot intensities from 2D-DIGE gels of B. suis recovered from a 6-weeks-starvation condition as compared to normalized protein spot intensities of corresponding spots from early stationary phase control of B. suis in TS broth.
  6. fStatistical significance of the ratio described ine.
  7. *indicates lack of statistical validation of the ratio described ine, but increase in protein concentration was observed in each of the three independent experiments.
