Fig. 5. HBP is required for histone gene expression. (A) Extracts prepared from
wild-type and R06F6.1(RNAi) C. elegans were analysed on a 15%
SDS-PAGE. Proteins were detected by western blotting using antibodies against
histone H3 (lanes 1, 2) or histone H4 (3, 4), as well as with an anti-tubulin
antibody to control for loading. (B,C) Epifluorescence image showing
immunostaining with anti-histone H3 antibody of a wild-type (B) and an
R06F6.1(RNAi) embryo (C). Scale bars represent 10 µm.
