Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: 5A11/Basigin has recently been identified as a critical glycoprotein for full maturity and function of the mouse retina. However, the biological function of 5A11/Basigin has yet to be determined. Previous reports indicate the presence of multiple 5A11/Basigin polypeptides within the retina. Therefore, in an effort to determine the function of 5A11/Basigin, the molecular diversity of its expression was...
