The majority of siRNAs deriving from these five npcRNAs are 24 nt long and map to both DNA strands of the npcRNA region, suggesting that these npcRNAs correspond to 24-nt-small RNA precursors. Expression analysis in different organs (Fig. 1) revealed that npc351 is enriched in stems and npc34 in aerial parts, whereas npc375 and npc523 show maximal levels in flowers. Specific oligonucleotides for real-time PCR studies could not be obtained for npc520. Whereas the npc375 and npc523 levels appeared unchanged in the rdr2 rdr6 double mutant. |
