Figure 3From: Mapping of the complement C9 binding domain on Trichinella spiralis paramyosinFurther mapping of the C9 binding site in overlapped synthesized peptides. Different overlapped peptides within the C9 binding fragment of Ts-Pmy (Pmy831-885) were synthesized, and then spotted onto a nitrocellulose membrane by using a narrow-mouth pipette tip (5 μg in 2.5 μl). After being blocked with 1% BSA in PBS, the membrane was incubated with human C9 (1 μg/ml) at 37°C for 2 h and then with anti-C9 mAb (0.2 μg/ml) at room temperature for 1 h. IRDye 800CW-labeled goat anti-mouse IgG (50 ng/ml) was used as the secondary antibody. The peptide size diagram is shown on the left and the Dot-blot with C9 is shown on the right.Back to article page
