Fig. 8. Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) mRNA (filled symbols) and protein (open
symbols) in the (A) gill and (B) white muscle from Gillichthys
mirabilis. Average protein concentrations and mRNA levels are shown for
fish (N=4) from each time point, either during heat shock (solid
lines; circles) or during recovery (broken lines; squares). Methods were
identical to those described in the legend to
Fig. 5, except that the
antibodies used were specific to PDI. Average pixel intensity for each spot
was normalized to the average for the four time 0 individuals. For protein
levels, values are means ± s.d (N=4). *Heat shock
time points that differ significantly (ANOVA, (P
0.001) from time
0;
recovery time points that differ significantly from time
0. In some cases, error bars are contained within symbols.
