Figure 5From: Molecular characterization of a Trichinella spiralis serine proteinaseTsSerp mRNA and protein expression in diverse T. spiralis phases. A,B RT-PCR analysis of transcription of TsSerp (A) and GAPDH (B) at various phases. Lane M: DNA marker; lane 1: ML; lane 2: IIL; lane 3: 3-day AW; lane 4: NBL. C Western blotting analysis of TsSerp protein expression levels at diverse stages. The histogram shows the relative TsSerp protein expression levels assessed by densitometry from three independent tests. *P < 0.001 compared with the AW and NBL groups.Back to article page
