Figure 2. Northern Blot analysis of 8 putative ncRNAs and RNaseP.

Equal amounts per lane of L. pneumophila Philadelphia-1 total RNA after bacterial growth in BYE broth were electrophoresed on 6% TBE/urea gels and blotted membranes were probed with single-stranded DIG-labeled RNA probes. lpr0049 and lpr0069 represent ncRNA family members. E = exponential growth phase, PE = post-exponential growth phase. Black arrow: gene, red line: ncRNA.
