Expression in mouse tissues of Bach2 mRNA derived from the normal or alternative promoter. Q-PCR analyses were performed with primer pairs amplifying either transcripts derived specifically from the normal Bach2 promoter (panel A) or transcripts derived from the alternative promoter (panel B). cDNAs used for the assay were obtained from NMRI mice not infected with retrovirus. br, brain; thy, thymus; spl, spleen; bm, bone marrow; liv, liver; kid, kidney; hea, heart; lun, lung; tes, testis; ske, skeletal muscle. Expression levels were normalized to total RNA and spleen tissue; expression level for spleen by normal promoter was set to 20.
