Abstract excerpt
The mechanism of disease in forms of congenital and limb girdle muscular dystrophy linked to mutations in the gene encoding for Fukutin-related protein (FKRP) has previously been associated with the mis-localisation of FKRP from the Golgi apparatus. In the present report, we have transfected V5-tagged Fukutin-related protein expression constructs into differentiated C2C12 myotubes and the tibialis anterior of...
