FIG. 2.
Western blot analysis of M. catarrhalis isolates. Proteins present in whole-cell preparations were resolved by SDS-PAGE, transferred to a polyvinylidene difluoride membrane, and analyzed by Western blotting with PEP1-specific antibodies at a dilution of 1:10,000. Cell lysates were heated at 100°C prior to electrophoresis. The number on the left indicates the molecular mass in kilodaltons.
