Fig. 3From: RIC-3 expression and splicing regulate nAChR functional expressionEffects of TM and FL cannot be attributed to expression level. a Representative Western Blot of the myc-tagged transcript-expressing oocytes showing similar expression of FL and TM. A single oocyte’s worth of homogenate prepared from an average of about 5 oocytes, was run in each lane; the Western was repeated twice with nearly identical results; b Electrophysiological recordings of ACh-stimulated currents through α7, co-expressed with different amounts of myc-tagged RIC-3 transcripts. Each bar represents 7–11 oocytes from 2 independent X. laevis. The y-axis ordinates are on a log scale. * indicates a p value of less than 0.05Back to article page
