title: Comparison of the subcellular distribution of the messages encoding PLP and DM-20.
abstract: Oligonucleotides provide a means to differentiate between closely related mRNAs. Here in situ hybridization is performed using oligonucleotide probes to determine the subcellular distribution of two differential splicing products of a single gene. It is demonstrated here that the subcellular distributions of PLP and DM-20 messages in oligodendrocytes are quite different, despite being transcripts of a single gene.
