FIG. 2.

Western blot analysis of the levels of undigested Hb in PM-KO lines compared to the levels in control nonrecombinant lines and uninfected red blood cells. The Hb levels in the individual lines were normalized to the F-actin levels. The table at the bottom presents the mean Hb levels normalized to the F-actin levels, and the Hb levels are listed as a percentage of the levels present in the Dd2 parental line. Values were calculated from five separate Western blots and are shown as the means ± SEMs.
