Northern blot analysis of rat LEC RNA with 175-kDa
HARE cDNA probes. Total RNA (lanes 1) or mRNA (lanes 2) samples
prepared from isolated rat LECs were subjected to formamide gel
electrophoresis, transferred to nylon membranes, and processed as
described in MATERIALS AND METHODS. The membranes were allowed to
hybridize separately with three different 32P-labeled DNA
probes, 5′RACE#11 (A), ZAP1P3 (B), or ZAP9P3 (C), which are located at
the 5′ end, middle, or 3′ end of the 175-kDa HARE cDNA sequence,
respectively.
