Yields of the RT termination product corresponding to Cm4506 of 28S rRNA in MCF-7 cells transfected with box C/D RNA analogues

Name of box C/D
RNA analogue
Alteration in box C/D RNA
structure compared to RNA5
Yield of the RT termination
product corresponding to
Cm4506 28S rRNA**
Relative yield of the RT
termination product ***, %
RNA5 - 1100 ± 154 100
RNA3 3-nucleotide shift to the 5’-end
of rRNA in the complementary region
6500 ± 780 590
RNA5mC box C (AUGAUGU) → (ACAGCAC);
box C’ (GUGAUGA) → (GCAGCAG)
170 ± 25 15
RNA5D/N box D (CUGA) → (AGUC) 570 ± 86 50
RNA5mD Boxes D and D’ (CUGA) → (AAAA) 150 ± 25 13

* Control cells were incubated with lipofectamine alone.

** Values of peak areas normalized to the total area of the peaks of RT termination products (±SD).

*** Relative yields of the RT termination product corresponding to Cm4506 28S rRNA compared to the yield of the same product of the RT of 28S rRNA isolated from MCF-7 cells transfected with RNA5.
