Abstract excerpt
Myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) translocates from the cytosol to the plasma membrane while mononucleated myoblasts fuse to form multinucleated myotubes. Here, we show that protein phosphatase-1-mediated dephosphorylation of MARCKS largely influences its subcellular localization and the fusion process. Treatment with okadaic acid or tautomycin, which are potent inhibitors of protein...
