Northern blotting of the genes in the SMCR (A) and the genes in its mouse syntenic region (B). Tissues are indicated at the top of each lane, and the size markers in kilobases (kb) are the numbers beside the blots. (He) heart; (Br) brain; (Pl) placenta; (Lu) lung; (Li) liver; (Sk) skeletal muscle; (Ki) kidney; (Pa) pancreas; (Te) testis. For mRNA quantity, β-actin was probed as a control. Ubiquitous expression was observed for FLJ10193, MGC3048, FLJ20308, and SMCR7. Tissue-specific various-sized transcripts were observed for TOM1L2 andSMCR8. DKFZp586M1120 is predominantly expressed in the kidney, whereas 4930449E07Rik is in the testis.
