RRP1 is involved in 47S/45S and 32S pre-RNA processing. (A) Total protein from HeLa cells (20 μg/lane) transfected with scRNA and empty vector (lane 1: scRNA + vector), RRP1 siRNA and empty vector (lane 2: RRP1 siRNA + vector), or RRP1 siRNA and siRNA-resistant RRP1 expression vector (lane 3: RRP1 siRNA + siResistant) was analyzed by immunoblotting (IB) with anti-RRP1 or anti-LaminB. Endogenous RRP1 and exogenously expressed FLAG-tagged siRNA-resistant RRP1 (siResistant) are indicated. (B) HeLa cells treated as above were metabolically labeled with [3H]uridine for 2 h. Total RNA was isolated and equal counts per minute (20 000 cpm) per sample were separated on an agarose gel, transferred to a membrane and detected by fluorography. Positions of rRNAs and major precursors are indicated at the left. (C) HeLa cells treated with scRNA (sc) or RRP1 siRNA (si) were labeled with [3H]uridine for 30 min, cultured in nonradioactive medium containing 0.5 mM nonradioactive uridine for the times indicated and then analyzed as in (B).
