Figure 1. Allelic imbalance of heterozygous FOXL2 transcripts in KGN cells
(A) Electropherograms from the Sanger sequencing of the locus of c.402C>G of FOXL2 from cDNA and gDNA from KGN cells are presented. The presented electropherograms are representative of eight independent experiments. The red dotted boxes indicate the 402C>G position. (B) Actual pyrograms and PyroMark Q48 software‐generated allele proportions of WT and variant FOXL2 mRNAs in KGN and COV434 cells from pyrosequencing experiments are presented. The data are provided as the mean ± SEM from two independent experiments. (C) Primer extension analysis performed on total RNA extracted from KGN cells transfected with an empty vector (control) or mutant (402G) FOXL2‐encoding plasmid. The expected WT (C) or mutated (G) nucleotides at position 402 are indicated by blue or red text and arrowheads, respectively. Enlarged images of signals from the 402 regions of FOXL2 transcripts are presented below.
