≠MS spectra were searched against NCBI nr database forPlasmodium protein database due to unavailability of Cryptosporidium database in the software. The results obtained were further subjected to protein BLAST against Cryptosporidiumdatabase to find homology with default parameters.

±Information regarding function of each identified proteins were extracted from published literature as well as from protein database (

¥ TRAP - Thrombospondin (TSP)-related adhesive protein

ABC transporter protein - ATP-binding cassette transporter protein

ATPase 2 - Adenosine triphosphatase 2
