Figure 5.

Northern analysis of antisense RNAs expressed near the (A) 5′ end or (B) 3′ end of the mRNA encoded on the opposing strand. The samples were the same as in Figure 1, and the RNA marker lane similarly corresponds to one of the panels. Small arrows indicate the full-length mRNA and large arrows indicate processed transcripts. The arrangement of adjacent genes is shown below each panel as in Figure 2. The 5′ ends of the RyjB and RyjC (indicated by balls) correspond to the actual transcription start.
