Increased butyrylcholinesterase levels in microsomal membranes of dystrophic Lama2dy mouse muscle.

Abstract excerpt

The proportions and the glycosylation of butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) forms in vesicles rich in sarcoplasmic reticulum from normal (NMV) and dystrophic (DMV) muscle were analyzed, using merosin-deficient dystrophic mice. BuChE activity in DMV was two- to threefold that in NMV. Globular amphiphilic G1A, G2A, and G4A and hydrophilic G4H BuChE forms were identified in NMV and DMV. The amount of G2A forms increased...
