Abstract excerpt
Two allelic forms of the rabbit neurofilament protein H, designated H1 and H2, differ by approximately 6% in their electrophoretic mobilities. We have used techniques of peptide and nucleic acid analysis to determine that this difference is located in the central portion of the COOH-terminal tail, a region of the H protein that can project from the filament, and may form cross-bridges. This region comprises...
