CstF-64 and τCstF-64 are necessary for normal 3′ end processing of replication-dependent histone mRNAs. (A) Western blot analysis of CstF-64 and τCstF-64 expression in WT (lane 1), Cstf2E6 ESCs transfected with scrambled siRNA (lane 2) and Cstf2E6 ESCs transfected with siRNA specific for Cstf2t gene (lane 3). (B) Relative mRNA expression analysis of polyadenylated and total Hist1h3c histone mRNA in wild type ESCs (orange), Cstf2E6 cells transfected with scrambled siRNA (blue) or Cstf2E6 cells transfected with siRNA against Cstf2t gene (brown). (C) Western blot analysis of CstF-64 and τCstF-64 expression in WT ESCs either transfected with scrambled siRNA (lane 1) or Cstf2 gene specific siRNA (lane 2). (D) Relative mRNA expression analysis of polyadenylated and total Hist1h3c histone mRNA in wild type ESCs transfected with scrambled (orange) or Cstf2 gene specific siRNA (blue). (E) Western blot analysis of CstF-64 expression in WT ESCs (lane 1), Cstf2E6 ESCs (lane 2) and Cstf2E6 ESCs ectopically expressing CstF-64 (lane 3). (F) Corresponding relative mRNA expression analysis of polyadenylated and total Hist1h3c histone mRNA. * denotes P < 0.05 and ** P < 0.01.
