HEK293 cells were transfected with siCTL or siPRMT5. The cells were subjected to Western blotting, RNA Pol II ChIP and DRIP analysis of β-actin gene. The graphs show the average and S.E.M. from at least three independent experiments. Statistical significance was assessed using Student's t-test. *: p < 0.05; **: p < 0.01.
