Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis of differentially expressed proteins
All the differentially expressed proteins were mapped to their enriched GO terms based on the functional annotation from the PANTHER database (Fig. Pie Chart showing the functional classification of differentially expressed proteins in EAAs vs whey group using Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis through PANTHER-classification systemOf the 15 downregulated proteins, 8 proteins are found to be associated with cellular processes, viz., Glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase [NAD( +)] cytoplasmic, Endoglin, C–C motif chemokine 3, Mast/stem cell growth factor receptor Kit, Peptide YY, Ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase 5, Creatine kinase M-type: Creatine kinase B-type heterodimer, and Low affinity immunoglobulin gamma Fc region receptor II-b, and four out of 15 are associated with biological regulation, viz., C–C motif chemokine 3, Mast/stem cell growth factor receptor Kit, Peptide YY, and Low affinity immunoglobulin gamma Fc region receptor II-b, and again four proteins are found to be associated with metabolic process, viz., Glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase [NAD( +)], cytoplasmic, Mast/stem cell growth factor receptor Kit, Ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase 5 and Creatine kinase M-type: Creatine kinase B-type heterodimer.
