a Schematic of constructs encoding recombinant PAF and PAF/GNA produced in the yeast P. pastoris showing predicted molecular masses; tag denotes the presence of a six-residue histidine sequence enabling protein purification by nickel affinity chromatography and immunoblot detection. b Separation of purified proteins by SDS-PAGE gel (17.5% acrylamide) stained for total protein: loading of proteins in µg is depicted. GNA standards are GNA purified from snowdrop bulbs (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, USA). c Western analysis of recombinant proteins using anti-His (400 ng protein loaded) and anti-GNA (200 ng protein loaded) antibodies. Location of mass markers run on the same gel are depicted
