We have previously shown that the expression of perlecan, a heparan sulfate proteoglycan localized on the myoblast surface, is down-regulated during terminal differentiation of skeletal muscle myoblasts (Larraı ´n et al. [1997] Exp. Cell Res. 234:405-412). In this study, we have evaluated the bioche
