Fig 3. Transcript levels of telomere-associated proteins in WT, ΔKu80, and Ku80_add strains of L. mexicana.

Gene expression is presented as normalized means with SEM derived from five independent biological replicates. T. brucei IDs of telomeric proteins are used for consistency with previously published results. Data for transcripts, whose expression pattern correlates with that of Ku80, are boxed. Statistical significance is indicated as follows: * < 0.05; ** <0.01; *** <0.001; ns–not significant.
