Figure 2. Rabbit A3A protein and gene expression.
(A) Phylogeny of a selection of mammalian A3A protein sequences constructed using the Neighbor-joining method with the CLC Main Workbench 7.0.2 software (Qiagen). Numbers correspond to bootstrap values inferred from 1,000 replicates. (B) RT-PCR quantification of rA1 (orange), rA3Z2Z3 (blue) and rA3A (red) mRNA in blood and rabbit tissues. Results were normalized to rabbit EF1α reporter gene expression.
