COG functional categories and GO classification. (a) Functional assignments of the differentially distributed proteins to the KOG (Eukaryotic Orthologous Groups) categories. The main KOG categories are illustrated with different colors and the frequency of each category is shown. (b) Overall GO (Gene Ontology) analysis of all differentially distributed proteins (HCC vs. HD) in accordance with the biological processes (left), cellular component (middle), and molecular function (right). Protein numbers in each category are shown.
