Depletion of DRBD18 in procyclic cells leads to translational defects. (A) Polysomal profiles of lysates from PF DRBD18 RNAi cells either uninduced (red) or doxycycline-induced (blue). (Inset) Western blot of induced and uninduced whole cell samples showing efficient knockdown of DRBD18; p22 is used as a loading control. (B) Quantification of the monosome to polysome ratio from four independent experiments as in (A).
