Figure 10. Western blot analysis of SmCL3 in adult S. mansoni soluble protein extract after size exclusion chromatography.

Figure 10

Several protein species were detected after size exclusion chromatography. Two species corresponding to the molecular mass of the zymogen are present in fractions 24–27. A protein species of 28 kDa corresponding to the mass of the mature enzyme is recognized in fractions 30–32. Two species of 15 and 13 kDa was detected in fractions 35–38. R - recombinant glycosylated SmCL3 electroblotted as a control; start - soluble protein extract (∼60 µg) before size exclusion chromatography.
