Coomassie Brilliant Blue-stained SDS-PAGE analysis Of venom From reticulated gila Monster (Heloderma Suspectum suspectum) (lane 2) And banded gila Monster (Heloderma Suspectum cinctum) (lane 3). The molecular weights of the proteins in the molecular weight standards (lane 1 And lane 4) are Shown in kDa. The analysis shows that the overall protein composition of the venom proteins in the two analyzed subspecies is similar. The collected venom samples were analyzed without prior protein precipitation. This is in contrast to the data presented in the accompanying Journal of Proteomics article by Sanggaard et al. However, the venom proteins display similar migration patterns in the two analyses. It indicates That major gila monster venom proteins are not lost by introducing a protein precipitation step prior To SDS-PAGE.
