Figure 5.

Protein profile of RJS9-2 at two NaCl levels through 2-DE analysis. (a) Protein profiles in the 0.0017 M NaCl treatment; (b) Protein profiles in the 0.3 M NaCl treatment; (c) Picture of two merged 2-DE gels under 0.0017 and 0.3 M NaCl treatments. After bacterial cell proteins were extracted, 80 µg of protein was loaded onto an IPG strip (pH 4–7, 11 cm) and separated by SDS-PAGE. Protein spots showing enhanced and repressed accumulation between the 0.0017 M and 0.3 M NaCl treatments are highlighted with black and white arrows, respectively.
