A Competitive transplant of bone marrow cells from Ddx41+/f;Rosa-CreERT2 and control mice against CD45.1+ competitor bone marrow cells. Peripheral blood chimerism was determined by flow cytometry for CD45.2 and CD45.1 for 16 weeks. B Chimerism in bone marrow cell populations determined by flow cytometry for CD45.2 and CD45.1. C Non-competitive transplant of bone marrow cells from Ddx41+/f;Rosa-CreERT2 and wild-type Rosa-CreERT2 mice was conducted, and LinSca+Kit+ cells were harvested for colony formation assays in methylcellulose. D In vivo staining for protein translation rate by OP-Puro injection into transplanted mice in C followed by flow cytometry on bone marrow cells. Relative OP-puro signal in each cell population is graphed.
