Size Fractionation of the Small RNA Molecules in the 60S NA
<div><p>(A) The 60S NA was separated onto a 15% denaturing gel, and individual bands were cut, eluted from the gel, and re-loaded onto a 15% denaturing gel to confirm correct size fractionation. Bands were labelled by SYBR gold staining and visualized by Storm 860 PhosphoImager. ST1 and ST2, oligonucleotide size markers, as in <a href="http://www.plosbiology.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pbio.0040332#pbio-0040332-g003" target="_blank">Figure 3</a>A.</p>
<p>(B) Nuclear import YOYO-1–labelled RTCs in permeabilized HeLa cells in the presence of 1× energy-regenerating system and 60S (0.5 mg/ml), 60S NA (100 ng), the nine main bands eluted from the gel as shown in (A) (140 nM each), or buffer (ctr–).</p></div
The 60S NA Fraction Contains Small RNA Molecules
<div><p>(A) Equal amounts of nucleic acids purified from the active Phenyl-Sepharose fraction (60S NA) were subjected to nuclease S7 (NS7) or DNAse-free RNAse (RNAse) treatment and analyzed by 15% denaturing PAGE followed by silver staining. Total HeLa RNA (totRNA) was used as control for nuclease and RNAse treatments.</p>
<p>ST1, oligonucleotide size markers (range, 8–32 nucleotides); ST2, size markers pBP322DNA-MspI.</p>

<p>(C) 60S NA fraction can be specifically 3′-end radiolabelled by T4 RNA ligase. Following 3′-end labelling with 5′-[<sup>32</sup>P]pCp, samples were analyzed by 15% denaturing PAGE and visualized by Storm 860 PhosphoImager. Total HeLa RNA (totRNA) was used as a control for T4 RNA ligase reaction. ST1 and ST2 are 5′-end radiolabelled oligonucleotide size markers as in (A).</p></div
