Fig. 8. Real-time PCR analysis of Ha-CalpM expression in lobster crusher claw
muscles during the moulting cycle. Total RNA from intermoult, early premoult
(stage D0), and early postmoult (2-4 days post-ecdysis) lobsters
was DNase-treated, reverse-transcribed, and PCR-amplified in reactions
containing SYBR Green I fluorescent dye (see Materials and methods). Values
are means ±1 S.D. (N=4 for each moult stage). Ha-CalpM
transcript copy number did not change significantly (P<0.28; ANOV
A single factor analysis).
