Figure 5. No change in turnover of DMT1 isoform mRNA after RA removal.

Figure 5

(A) A representative RT-PCR showing the turnover of DMT1 mRNAs after RA removal as compared with undifferentiated cells. See the Experimental section for details. The left panel shows turnover of mRNA in undifferentiated cells, while the right panel shows that of cells treated with RA for 4 days. There was no significant difference in the turnover of mRNA between the two conditions. (B) Graphical representation of band densitometry from RT-PCR for mRNA turnover. The solid line represents undifferentiated cells, while the dotted line represents cells treated with RA. The graph shows that there was no change in half-lives of DMT1 isoforms in cells after RA treatment as compared with that of undifferentiated cells. Results are presented as means±S.D. for three RT-PCR gels.
