Figure 1. IFT140 is highly expressed in the testis and the protein level is elevated during spermiogenesis.

Figure 1

A. Analysis of Ift140 mRNA tissue distribution of by RT-PCR. Ift140 mRNA is detected in most tissues, but is abundant only in the testis; B. Measurement of relative Ift140 mRNA expression levels in mouse tissues by quantitative PCR. Expression levels were normalized to Gapdh. C. IFT140 protein expression in mouse tissues. Notice that IFT140 was detected only in the testis. D. Testicular IFT140 expression during the first wave of spermatogenesis. Notice that it was expressed at day 24 after birth and up-regulated afterwards, when germ cells enter spermiogenesis phase.
