• The aim of this work was the functional and proteomic analysis of a mutant, W3110 Bgl+/10, isolated from a batch culture of an Escherichia coli K‐12 strain maintained at room temperature without addition of nutrients for 10 years. When the mutant was evaluated in competition experiments in co‐culture with the wild‐type, it exhibited the growth advantage in stationary phase (GASP) phenotype. Proteomes of the GASP mutant and its parental strain were compared by using a 2DE coupled with MS approach. Several differentially expressed proteins were detected and many of them were successful identified by mass spectrometry. Identified expression‐changing proteins were grouped into three functional categories: metabolism, protein synthesis, chaperone and stress responsive proteins. Among them, the prevalence was ascribable to the “metabolism” group (72%) for the GASP mutant, and to “chaperones and stress responsive proteins” group for the parental strain (48%).
