Popis: Transcription of two human plasma proteins, haptoglobin (Hp) and transferrin (Tf) has been detected intracellularly in a variety of human cells and tissues. Sites of transcription are visualized as silver grains resulting from hybridization of radiolabelled Hp cDNA or Tf cDNA to the corresponding intracellular mRNA. This technique is effective in detecting transcription of plasma proteins, even in heterogeneous cell populations. It has facilitated the detection of Tf mRNA synthesis in a specific subset of human T-lymphocytes.
