Figure 11From: Molecular characterization and determination of the biochemical properties of cathepsin L of Trichinella spiralisDegradation of haemoglobin (Hb) from various hosts by rTsCatL2. A–E Degradation of human Hb (A), mouse Hb (B), swine Hb (C), bovine Hb (D) and chicken Hb (E) by rTsCatL2 at different pH values. Lanes 1, 3, 5 and 7: Hb; Lanes 2, 4, 6 and 8: Hb + rTsCatL2; (F) Effect of MBP on hydrolysis of human Hb (Lanes 1–2), mouse Hb (Lanes 3–4), swine Hb (Lanes 5–6), bovine Hb (Lanes 7–8) and chicken Hb (Lanes 9–10) at pH 4.0. Lanes 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9: Hb; Lanes 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10: Hb + MBP.Back to article page
