Degradation of mutant forms of tRNAArgCCG do not require Trf4p. (A) RNA extracted from wild-type cells (lane 1), cells carrying the trr4-1 and trr4-2 mutations in tRNAArgCCG (lanes 2,5), trr4-1 cells lacking TRF4 (trr4-1 trf4Δ; lane 3), trf4Δ (lane 4), and trr4-2 trf4Δ (lane 6) cells was probed to detect tRNAArgCCG. The blot was reprobed to detect 5S rRNA. (B) Graphic representation of the data in A. The intensity of each band was determined using a PhosphorImager.
