Remarks:
Data from Figure 2I. It is suspicious that authors used as the control pRF-based transcripts instead of
pRKMI(1/2)F based transcripts without supplemented PTB proteins. However, the data showing that unr and La
protein do not bind to pRKMI(1/2)F transcripts so results for these two supplemented proteins confirm that
they most probably wanted to write in the figure legend that they used as the control RRL with same plasmids
but without supplemented PTB.
