Abstract：
:There are alterations in the proteins synthesized during different stages of development of Schistosoma mansoni. The protein profiles at different stages were analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. When stained by Coomassie blue, no significant differences were seen in protein profiles derived from cultured schistosomula from Days 0 to 6 and from adults. Newly synthesized proteins were detected by [35S]methionine incorporation. There were only a few differences in the protein profiles of schistosomula from Days 1 to 6 and from adults. Profiles derived from Day 0 schistosomula showed striking differences. Only a few proteins appear to be synthesized on Day 0 under these conditions. Schistosomula on Day 0 synthesized several minor proteins as well as a major protein of approximately 69,000 Da. This protein was immunoprecipitated by rabbit antiserum against bovine uncoating adenosine triphosphatase which recognizes the constitutive and induced 70,000 Da heat shock proteins in a wide variety of eukaryotic cells. More significant differences were observed when the newly synthesized proteins were analyzed by two dimensional gel electrophoresis. The profiles of newly synthesized proteins showed a specific repertoire of expression during the early stages of development in the parasite. A shift in temperature and medium during transformation from aquarium water to isotonic medium may initiate the synthesis of heat shock protein in these parasites.
