Thy-1 involvement in neurite outgrowth: perturbation by antibodies, phospholipase C, and mutation.

Developmental biology - 1 Mar 1992

Mahanthappa N K, Patterson P H

Abstract excerpt

Thy-1 is a major cell surface protein anchored in the plasma membrane of neurons and lymphocytes by a covalent glyco-phosphatidyl-inositide linkage. Despite thorough characterization of the molecule's physicochemical properties, its biological function remains elusive. In this study we demonstrat...
