Figure 7. The 7SK/Tat snRNP does not interact with hnRNP proteins.
A. Expression of Tat has no effect on the interaction of 7SK and hnRNP proteins. HnRNP A1 and A2/B1 were immunoprecipitated from extracts prepared from HeLa cells expressing or not expressing (NT) Tat-FL. Co-purification of 7SK was assayed by Northern blotting. Lanes no Ab, control IPs without antibody. B. The 7SK/Tat snRNP lacks hnRNP proteins, but associates with Larp7. Transiently expressed Tat-FL was immunoprecipitated from extracts (E) prepared from transfected (T) or non-transfected (NT) HeLa cells. Co-IP of 7SK snRNA and hnRNP and Larp7 proteins was assayed.
