B. microti RON2 is an ∼170-kDa antigen. (A) Immunoblotting with B. microti-infected lysates from mouse RBCs and anti-BdRON2503–602 antibodies (lane Bd503) detected a doublet, with the predominant band being of the predicted size of ∼170 kDa (arrow). (B) Blotting with anti-BbRON2peptide antibodies (lane BbPEP) also detected the predominant band of ∼170 kDa (arrow) and a product of ∼55 kDa. Preimmune rabbit serum (lanes PI) did not react with any native antigens. Numbers to the left of the gels are molecular masses (in kilodaltons).
