Cellular localization of human 91Ha
Gene | Nuclear cell extract | Cytoplasmic extract |
---|---|---|
Rplp0 | 20.44 | 79.56 |
Gapdh | 21.4 | 78.6 |
U3 snoRNA | 73.6 | 26.4 |
H19 | 44.4 | 55.6 |
91H (G primers) | 81.82 | 18.18 |
91H (H primers) | 80.12 | 19.88 |
MrpL23 | 20.83 | 79.17 |
Relative RNA levels were determined by quantitative RT-PCR after separation of the nuclear and cytoplasmic compartments. MrpL23, Rplp0, Gapdh, and H19 RNAs were used as cytoplasmic control transcripts, and U3 snoRNA was used as a nuclear control RNA. 91H was quantified independently at the G and H regions (see Fig. 1). H19 and MrpL23 were detected using primers designed over exon/exon junctions. Values in boldface indicate the preferential localization of the transcript.
