Identification and Expression of a Putative Facilitative Urea Transporter in Three Species of True Frogs (Ranidae): Implications for Terrestrial Adaptation

Figure 4

Tissue distribution of UT protein from Rana sylvatica (a), R. pipiens (b), and R. septentrionalis (c). For each species, abundance of UT protein was determined by densitometry and presented for each tissue as arbitrary densitometric units. Values represent the mean ± SEM ( ) intensity of the bands. Select immunoblots showing immunoreactive bands at 60 kDa are presented below their respective quantification value. Note difference in the ordinate’s scale in the plot for R. septentrionalis.
