Efficiency of fluorescent 3′-end labeling of the BRCA1 transcripts. (A) Three rhodamine derivatives of dUTP used for 3′-end labeling of RNAs: [R110]dUTP (left), [RG6]dUTP (middle), [TAMRA]dUTP (right). The maximum emission wavelengths of fluorochromes used are 525, 549 and 572 nm for R110, RG6 and TAMRA, respectively. (B) CE in denaturing conditions of three BRCA1 transcripts: Ex1a47nt, Ex1b64nt and Ex1a-2, labeled with Klenow fragment and [R110]dUTP (top), [RG6]dUTP (middle) and [TAMRA]dUTP (bottom); TAMRA-500 or ROX-1000 internal standard (gray lines). (C) CE in denaturing conditions of three BRCA1 transcripts: Ex1a102nt, Ex1a and Ex1a-2, labeled with TdT and [R110]dUTP (top), [RG6]dUTP (middle), [TAMRA]dUTP (bottom). (D) Relative labeling efficiency of three different RNA molecules with three fluorescent dUTP derivatives using Klenow fragment. The shown labeling efficiency with [TAMRA]dUTP was multiplied by a factor of 4, as the emission intensity of this fluorochrome is four times lower than that for the other two rhodamine derivatives used. The data represent average values obtained in three independent experiments, and [R110]dUTP incorporation is taken as 100%. (E) As in (D), but using TdT to label five different RNAs.
