SDS-PAGE separation and immunoblot analysis of the hemolymph proteins eluted from the serpin-12 (A) or HP14PD (B) antibody columns. As described in Section 2.3, plasma proteins associated with the antibodies were eluted from the column. Aliquots of the peak fractions were separated by 7.5% SDS-PAGE, stained with Coomassie brilliant blue (CBB) (left panel), and analyzed using diluted serpin-12 or HP14PD antiserum (middle and right panels), as indicated at the bottom. Lane 1, eluted proteins from induced plasma not treated with S. aureus peptidoglycan; lane 2, eluted proteins from the induced plasma elicited with peptidoglycan. Positions and sizes (in kDa) of the pre-stained Mr standards are marked on the left, with the 75 kDa marker highlighted red. *, putative serpin-protease complexes; ►, uncoupled IgG heavy chain.
