Complexation of FT mRNA with the peptide BP100-KH9. (A) Gel shift assay for mRNA-peptide complexes. FT mRNA complexed with the peptide BP100-KH9 at N/P ratio = 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 were analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Binding efficiency of the RNA at each N/P ratio was calculated from the gel image. (B) Protection of mRNA from RNase by peptides. FT mRNA was complexed with BP100-KH9 at N/P ratio = 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4, and then treated with RNase A. After dissociation from BP100-KH9, FT mRNA was analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis. Original gel images are shown in Fig. S6.
