Northern blot analysis of Ctns expression. (A) A 2.5 kb transcript, accompanied by a faint 4.4 kb transcript, can be seen in all tissues except skeletal muscle upon hybridisatin with a Ctns specific probe. (B) Following hybridisation with a β-actin cDNA control probe, a 2.0 kb transcript can be seen for brain, spleen, lung, liver and kidney, a 2.0 kb and a 1.8 kb transcript can be seen for heart and testis, and a 1.8 kb transcript can be seen for skeletal muscle.
