Additional files

Additional file 1:

Proteins identified by DDF-MudPIT and their distribution by tissue type. Column 1 shows the RefSeq numbers of the identified chicken predicted proteins, column 2 indicates the corresponding predicted protein names (assigned by NCBI). Columns 3–8 shows the different types of tissue/cells used in this study and + and - indicate the presence or absence of the proteins in the specified tissue/cell, respectively.

Additional file 3:

Chicken-human/mouse orthologs predicted by different tools. Using either the human or mouse orthologs shown in column 3, a standardized gene symbol and name (column 4 & 5) was assigned to 5,064 (65%) of the predicted proteins identified in this study. Columns 6–10 list the orthology prediction tools that were used to predict the human or mouse orthologs.
