Abstract
ABSTRACT Polyclonal antibodies raised against recombinant D. melanogaster transferrin were used to study both developmental and organ-specific expression of D. melanogaster transferrin. It was shown that transferrin is present at all developmental stages except late embryos and early larvae. The organ distribution of transferrin reveals that it is abundant in the hemolymph and from all organs examined was detected only in the ovaries. The maternal origin of the transferrin in early embryos, the activation of its synthesis and its accumulation in the oocytes are discussed.
期刊介绍:
Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment (B&BE) is an international open access journal publishing cutting-edge research. A modern world requires modern biotechnology and nanobiology. The journal is a forum that provides society with valuable information for a healthy and better life and promotes “the Science and Culture of Nature”.
The journal publishes original research and reviews with a multidisciplinary perspective; expanded case reports with a focus on molecular medical research and advanced practice in evidence-based medicine are also considered.
