Size of cDNA synthesised from mRNA isolated from protoscoleces of E. granulosus. After the second-strand cDNA was synthesised by adding 2μl of [α-32P] dATP to the reaction, the cDNA was fractioned through a CL-2B column after being linked with EcoR I adapters and digested with Xho I to create an Xho I cut end. Fractions 5 to 11 (1μl of elution) were run on an agarose gel and exposed for 4 h to an X-ray film before being developed. Standard RNA markers, in nucleotides are shown on the left hand of the figure.
