Northern analysis using an M1851-specific oligonucleotide probe on RNA from 20 human tissues

Tissues are as labeled: 1, heart; 2, brain; 3, placenta; 4, lung; 5, liver; 6, skeletal muscle; 7, kidney; 8, pancreas; 9, spleen; 10, thymus; 11, prostate; 12, testes; 13, uterus; 14, small intestine; 15, colon; 16, peripheral lymphocytes; 17, stomach; 18, thyroid; 19, spinal cord; 20, lymph node; 21, trachea; 22, adrenal; and 23, bone marrow. Strong 5.5-kb and weaker 3.3-kb mRNAs (arrows) are present in lanes representing brain, pancreas, and prostate, with lesser signals in spinal cord, adrenal, thyroid, and GI tract.
