Help! I'm doing Northerns...

[Caroline McKeown]

        Does anyone know of a good loading control to use for Northerns?
        
        We have tried act-1; unfortunately the construct is too small 
        to use for non-radioactive DIG labelling.  We need something 
        that is expressed equally in all stages of C. elegans development. 
        Larger sized messages (>5kb) would be preferred since our message
        is >12kb.
        
        Any ideas will be greatly appreciated,
