Large scale changes in the transcriptome of <i>Eisenia fetida</i> during regeneration - Fig 4

Divergent expression of O-sialic acid esterase homologs during regeneration of E.fetida: (A) Gene structure of efSIAE1. Paralog specific primers for efSIAE1 and efSIAE2 are shown by green and purple arrows respectively. (B) Two contigs derived from de novo assembly of RNA-Seq data showed homology at protein level to O-sialic acid esterase gene of human (hs). One of them was also identified in a scaffold assembled in the genome sequence assembly. (C) RT-PCR using gene specific primers confirmed the divergent expression of the transcripts of efSIAE1 and efSIAE2 in the RNA-Seq data.
