Figure 6. Transcription level of the squalene synthase (SQS) and lanosterol synthase (LS) in response to aspirin.

Fungal mycelium of Ganoderma lucidum was incubated with 2 mM aspirin. Expression of SQS and LS coding region was determined by northern blotting. Gel stained with ethidium bromide was shown to indicate the relative loadings of the total RNA.
