Figure 1

Expression of CES genes in opossum. Liver and intestinal cDNAs were reverse transcribed from DNase I-treated RNA, and they were used as templates in RT-PCR to analyze CES gene expression. Lanes 2 and 3 are RT-PCR products amplified from liver (L) and intestine (I) cDNAs for the CES1 gene; lanes 4 and 5, RT-PCR products from liver (L) and intestine (I) cDNAs for the CES2.1 gene; lanes 6 and 7, RT-PCR products from liver (L) and intestine (I) for cDNAs for the CES2.2 gene; and lanes 8 and 9, RT-PCR products from liver (L) and intestine (I) for cDNAs for the CES2.3 gene. M shows the DNA size ladder.
