Mutations in the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex cause muscle degeneration and dysfunctions in the central nervous system, including an impaired synaptic transmission in the outer plexiform layer (OPL) of the retina. To investigate the basis for this ocular phenotype, we analyzed the distribution of

Rat retinal tissue possesses as a developmentally regulated, highly active pyrophosphatase activity that hydrolyzes UDP-GalNAc and UDP-Gal but not CMP-NeuAc (Martina et al.: J Neurochem 62: [1274][1275][1276][1277][1278][1279][1280] 1995). We show here that this activity, measured with UDP-[3H]GalNA
An assay for alpha-tubulin acetyltransferase (TAT) activity based on affinity isolation of labeled acetylated alpha-tubulin was developed for use with crude subcellular fractions. Microtubules were polymerized and immobilized on an anti-alpha-tubulin-agarose and then incubated with the subcellular f
Using selective inhibitor treatments, we have studied the distribution of asymmetric (A) and globular (G) forms of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) in the extra-and intracellular compartments of chick retina, a specialized region of chick central nervous system (CNS). Our results show that the chick reti
## Abstract Calmodulin‐dependent phosphodiesterase (PDE1) is a key enzyme in cyclic nucleotides metabolism. We studied its gene expression and protein localization during retinal development in chick embryos. Western blot and densitometric analysis demonstrated that the expression of the three isof
