FIGURE 6.

The 5′ UTR of H-ferritin does not possess transcriptional activity. Firefly luciferase activity following transfection of HT1080 cells with (A) the pGL3Basic, pGL3Basic/Ftn(5′UTR), or pGL3Basic/NF-κB constructs, and (B) the pGL3Basic/NF-κB or pGL3Control constructs. The values from three independent experiments (mean ± SD) were normalized with Renilla luciferase activity from cotransfected pRL-TK.
