Figure 2. Immunodetection analysis of PaGLO1 and PaGLO2 levels in the wild type (WT) and transgenic glyoxalase strains. A. Total protein extracts isolated from WT, single PaGlo1- and PaGlo2- overexpression mutants (three independent isolates from each PaGlo1_OEx and PaGlo2_OEx, respectively) and the deletion strain ΔPaGlo1 were analyzed using antibodies against PaGLO1 and PaGLO2 after transfer to a PVDF membrane. BTotal protein extracts isolated from WT and double PaGlo1/PaGlo2 overexpression mutants (three independent isolates) were similarly analyzed. Detection of the cytosolic protein PaPRE3 (β1-subunit of the 20S proteasome) and protein staining of the transfer membrane with Coomassie were performed as loading controls. Accession numbers: PaGLO1: B2AQW8 (UniProt); PaGLO2: B2B554 (UniProt); PaPRE3: Pa_5_4560 (Podospora anserinasequencing consortium).
