TG expression and activity in joint/ossifying cartilage from wild-type and TG2 knock-out mice. (a) Real-time PCR analysis showing expression of TGs compared to TG2 expression in wild-type mouse joint/ossifying cartilage. (b) TG cross-linking activity assayed by pentylamine-biotin incorporation into N,N′-dimethylcasein. Total protein lysates from wild-type and TG2 knock-out mouse joint/ossifying cartilage were used. (c) Real-time PCR analysis showing expression of TGs in TG2 knock-out mouse joint/ossifying cartilage compared to wild-type tissue. (*P≤0.05; **P≤0.005)
