Northern analysis of Sebox mRNA in mouse tissues. Blots (2 μg of poly(A)⁺ RNA/lane) were hybridized with a cDNA probe labeled with [α-³²P]dCTP (specific activity of 1.0 × 10⁹ cpm/μg). A 1.45-kb RNA transcript was detected in adult ovary, skin, and liver (A and B). In addition, RNA of the same length was observed during late fetal development (D). Two diffuse bands of RNA, approximately 1.5 and 1.8 kb in length, were detected in postnatal brain starting from the fifth postnatal day, which increased in abundance thereafter (C).
