Isolation and Characterization of Adhesive Secretion from Cuvierian Tubules of Sea Cucumber Holothuria forskåli (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea)

Figure 3

Western blot analysis of adhesive protein from Cuvierian tubule extract, purified by immunoprecipitation. The blot was developed using antibodies against adhesive protein from H. forskåli (PoAb-Ctub) and anti-rabbit IgG alkaline phosphatase secondary antibody. (a) Adhesive protein incubated with antibody against adhesive protein from H. forskåli. (b) Protein from mussels (precollagen D), incubated with antibody against adhesive protein from Cuvierian tubules. Numbers to the left indicate molecular masses of marker proteins in kDa.
