A, B. TAF15 mRNA (A) and protein levels (B) after siRNA knockdown of TAF15 (KD), compared to control knockdown (CTRL), in mouse neurons. Quantitations (A, B) are shown as mean ± s.d., from three biological replicates; changes are significant (P<0.01).
C, D. Scatter plot of genes (C) and exons (D) expression calculated by RNA-Seq from 3 KD and 3 CTRL samples. Differentially expressed genes and exons (N=3; P<0.01) are highlighted, glog; generalized logarithm base 2.
E. RT-PCR validations of differentially included exons in mRNAs whose levels did not change upon TAF15 knockdown. Shown are schematics (constitutive exon: black box; differentially included exon: red box; intron: black line) with primers (arrows) and position of TAF15-peaks (blue boxes). Quantitation (error bars; s.d) and representative gels from RT-PCRs are shown. All detected changes are significant (P<0.01).
