Assay
Reference: J:82706 Croteau S, et al., Alternative splicing and imprinting control of the Meg3/Gtl2-Dlk1 locus in mouse embryos. Mamm Genome. 2003 Apr;14(4):231-41
Assay type: RT-PCR
MGI Accession ID: MGI:6450863
Gene symbol: Meg3
Gene name: maternally expressed 3
Probe: Meg3 1F, Meg3 4R
Probe preparation: labelled with P32
Visualized with: Phosphorimaging
Assay notes: These data are reported in Table 3. The primer set used in this assay amplifies exons 1-4; it generates products from two splice variants. RFLP analysis and sequencing was used to determine which allele was responsible for observed expression of each isoform.

Notes:
(a) This band represents expression of isoform b (exons 1-2-3-3b-4) from the C57BL/6 allele.
(b) Expression of this isoform from the paternally-derived allele is not seen.
(c) This band represents expression of isoform a (exons 1-2-2a-3-3b-4) from the C57BL/6 allele.
(d) This band represents expression of isoform b (exons 1-2-3-3b-4) from the Molossinus allele.
(e) This band represents expression of isoform a (exons 1-2-2a-3-3b-4) from the Molossinus allele.
(f) This isoform was not tested for this cross.
