RNAs associated with subcomplex I (A) and II (B). After TAP purification, RNA was precipitated, and RNA levels were analyzed with qRT-PCRs. Enrichment of RNAs was determined by calculating ratios of RT2T or R2T with results obtained with the control strain RST-1. The rrnL gene was used for normalization. In these qRT-PCRs, we used primer pairs specific for exon 1 precursor (ex1), exon 2 precursor (ex2), exon 3 precursor (ex3), tscA RNA, and partially spliced psaA exons (Ex1-Ex2 and Ex2-Ex3). n.d., not detected.
