Abstract excerpt
Two-dimensional gel analysis of basic proteins in developing human smooth muscle identifies calponin as a prominent marker of the differentiated phenotype. Adult tissue (human and mouse) typically expresses up to four calponin isoforms, three of which appear sequentially during fetal development:...
