The G-motif is required to target reporter mRNA in axons of differentiated NSC-34 cells. (A) Representative pictures of cells expressing the indicated constructs. FISH was performed using LacZ probes after 3 d of differentiation. Scale bar, 10 µm. Insets on the bottom of each panel are enlarged images of boxed sections. (B) Quantitative analysis of localization of reporter RNAs in axons as illustrated in A. Scatter plots show the number of mRNA spots localized in the distal segment of axons with the FL-wt (n = 19), 5′UTR + CS (n = 19), 3′UTR (n = 45), and FL-rev (n = 29) reporters (n corresponds to the number of cells that were analyzed). Mean and SEM are shown. Statistical significance was calculated using the Wilcoxon test. (***) P < 0.001.
