Fig 7. Insect extracts containing recombinant SmLy6B block recognition of a major 11 kDa reduction-sensitive S. mansoni antigen on western blots by mouse and rat infection sera.

Fig 7

Total extracts from juvenile or adult mammalian-stage Schistosoma mansoni worms were resolved by SDS-PAGE under non-reducing conditions and transferred to filters. Pooled mouse, rat or human infection sera (1:2000) were pre-incubated for 1 hr with control lysate buffer (-) or lysates of insect cells expressing SmLy6B (+) prior to overnight incubation with the filter strips. Detection employed the appropriate HRP/anti-mouse, -rat or -human IgG reagent. The arrow indicates the position of migration of SmLy6B. Numbers indicate the positions of migration of molecular mass markers (kDa).
