Figure 7. RNA interference of oleate desaturase expression in bloodstream-form trypanosomes.

Figure 7

Growth curves (logarithmic plot) of bloodstream form cell line 90-13 wild-type (wt BSF) and cells transfected with a construct for RNAi of OD. Cells of the transfected clone were cultured in the absence (-tet) and presence of tetracycline (+tet) to induce RNAi (A). Relative levels of OD mRNA normalized to tubulin mRNA levels. The results are expressed as percentage of the normalized OD transcripts present in the untransfected control (wt) cells and are the means ± SD of three independent experiments (B).
