Muscular dystrophies, the cytoskeleton and cell adhesion.

BioEssays : news and reviews in molecular, cellular and developmental biology - 1 Jun 2002

Spence Heather J, Chen Yun-Ju, Winder Steven J

Abstract excerpt

Muscular dystrophies are associated with mutations in genes encoding several classes of proteins. These range from extracellular matrix and integral membrane proteins to cytoskeletal proteins, but also include a heterogeneous group of proteins including proteases, nuclear proteins, and signalling molecules. Muscular dystrophy phenotypes have also become evident in studies on various knockout mice defective in...
