Fig. 4. Histogram displaying the changes in the expression of calcium regulatory
and responsive proteins that may influence the expression of myoglobin. Adult
seals had the lowest relative protein expression and were significantly
different from the juvenile in all but one (calsequestrin) of the proteins
measured. Protein concentrations were similar in pups and juveniles in all
proteins measured except myoglobin, which was significantly greater in the
juvenile than either the pup or adult. Values are means ± s.e.m.
(N=6). * denotes significantly different from pups;
denotes significantly greater than adults
(P<0.05, ANOVA).
