a

Cells were cultured at 33°C (33), 39°C for 2 days (39), or 2 days at 39°C followed by an incubation at 33°C for 1 (experiments 1 and 2) or 2 days (experiment 3) (39-33). 

b

Values shown correspond to the amount of joining products relative to the amount for control actin. The intensity of hybridizing bands was quantitated with a PhosphorImager. 

c

The ratio is derived by dividing the value for an IJ with the value for an CJ. For example, 0.36 is the ratio of 0.89 (VλVκ) to 2.5 (VλJλ). 

d

—, both CJ and IJ values are too small to be significant for ratio calculation. 

e

The quantitation is derived from Fig. 2B. Values are average intensities of the PCR products ± standard error on two different dilutions for each DNA sample (i.e., undiluted and threefold-diluted DNA). 

f

VλVκ. 

g

VλJκ.
