Fig. 3. Sperm-specific expression of mouse PLC
. (A) Northern blot analysis of PLC
transcript distribution in mouse. Lanes from left to right: RNA standard markers, brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, skeletal muscle, spleen, testis (2 µg polyA+-RNA/lane). Molecular weight markers in kb are on the left. (B) Immunoblot analysis of PLC
protein distribution in mouse. Left to right: brain, heart, kidney, liver, lung, skeletal muscle, sperm (50 µg protein/lane). Molecular weight markers in kDa are on the right. (C) Polymerase chain reaction detection of PLC
in cDNA from mouse spermatid and mouse testis devoid of spermatids. Left to right: DNA markers (2.0, 1.6, 1.0, 0.8, 0.6 and 0.5 kb, top to bottom), spermatid cDNA (10 ng), testis cDNA (10 ng), blank (no DNA) and positive control (1 ng PLC
plasmid).
