  1. For each cellular process category, the observed number of proteins showing an ICAT ratio ≥1.6 was compared to the number expected at random. Using the hypergeometric distribution, a p-value was calculated for each cellular process category from four numbers: the total number of ICAT-reagent labeled proteins (1,064), the total number of proteins with ICAT ratios ≥1.6 (350), the number of ICAT-reagent labeled proteins in the cellular process category, and the number of ICAT-reagent labeled proteins in the cellular process category with a ratio ≥1.6. Cellular process categories showing low p-values are shown. Each of these has either an over-representation of changed proteins or an under-representation.
