Fig. 3. Analysis of AIP4 mRNA expression. A commercial Northern blot membrane was used to establish the AIP4 mRNA expression pattern in human adult tissues. A 1400-bp probe corresponding to the N-terminal domain (C2 and WW domain) of the AIP4 protein was used. A major transcript of 6.0 kb was observed in most tissue except the bone marrow; AIP4 expression is weaker in spleen and thymus, and a transcript of 4 kb was seen in testis.
