Fig. 4From: The manner of decay of genetically defective EYS gene transcripts in photoreceptor-directed fibroblasts derived from retinitis pigmentosa patients depends on the type of mutationDetection of expression and identification of sequences of EYS gene transcripts corresponding to exon 6–11 that includes c.1211dupA in photoreceptor-directed fibroblasts from EYS-RP patients. a RT-PCR analysis of expression of the EYS gene using primer pairs corresponding to exon 6–11. Expression levels of EYS gene were clearly up-regulated by CRX, RAX, NeuroD and OTX2 transduction in Pt#3 and N#2 10 days after transduction. Y79 was used as a positive control. b Electropherogram corresponding to c.1211dupA by sequencing of RT-PCR products and the genome. Sequencing analyses revealed that these RT-PCR products corresponding to exon 6–11 consisted of normal sequences with an extremely low level of defected sequencesBack to article page
