Chemical Basis of Prey Recognition in Thamnophiine Snakes: The Unexpected New Roles of Parvalbumins
Figure 5
A comparison of E. coli growth in the minimum culture medium (filled squares) in the presence of 12 mM EDTA (triangles) or 0.5 mM parvalbumins (squares).
All of the results are shown as means ± s.e.m. for three independent replicate experiments per treatment. Osmerus eperlanus α parvalbumin was purified according to the procedure described by Gosselin and Rey (1977) (34). SDS-PAGE of purified Osmerus eperlanus α parvalbumin.
