(E) Western blot analysis and subsequent quantification of protein levels in wild type (C1, C2) and Clpp knockout (KO1, KO2) MEFs upon Clpx siRNA (Clpx) relative to untreated (Ctrl) wild type. Bars represent mean ± SD. Student's t-test was used to determine the level of statistical difference (n=6). The arrowhead indicates positions of either CLPX or ERAL1, and stars indicate position of cross-reacting bands.
