Differential expression of representative types of mda
genes identified by RaSH and reverse Northern blotting. Northern blots
of total RNA were prepared from HO-1 cells untreated (control; lanes 1
and 7) or treated for 2 h (lane 2), 4 h (lane 3), 8 h
(lane 4), 24 h (lanes 5 and 10), or 72 h (lane 6) with IFN-β +
MEZ, 24 h with IFN-β (lane 8), or 24 h with MEZ (lane 9). Membranes
were probed with radiolabeled (32P) labeled
mda sequence tags, identified by RaSH in the
Dpn-sLib and EcoR-sLib. Equal loading of
samples was confirmed by hybridization with a 32P-labeled
glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase cDNA probe.
