Contribution of the topA promoter to the total transcript level. (A) Nested RT-PCR using oligonucleotides complementary to the upstream region of the topA promoter (see the scheme at right). For the wild-type strain, the two bands (PCR1 and PCR2) correspond to the products of the p1 and p2 promoters (see the scheme at right). (B) RT-qPCR analysis of RNAs isolated from the wild-type strain and the p1 and p2 mutants. Oligonucleotides were designed to detect the overall topA transcript (p1 + p2) and p2-specific transcript (p2) levels (see the scheme at right).
