Immunoblot detection of Ang-sNPFR in membrane preparations from body regions and tissues of An. gambiae. Upper panel. Membranes prepared from heads (H), thoraces (T) and abdomens (A) of adult males and non-blood fed females or CHO-K1 cells expressing Ang-sNPFR (Cells). Lower panel. Membranes prepared from heads (H), dorsal thorax (DT), ventral thorax (VT), abdomen wall (AW), midgut (MG), hindgut and Malphigian tubules (HG) and ovaries (O) of non-blood fed females. Apparent protein masses are given to the left of each panel.
