  1. aStandard errors computed from 5 capture experiments on 5 separate 3-month-old MA-INTACT mice using rabbit anti-mRFP1 polyclonal antibodies on 2.8 micron protein-G coupled paramagnetic Dynabeads. Similar, results were obtained when anti-RFP and anti-Flag antibodies were used as capture reagents
