Abstract excerpt
A novel agrin isoform was identified based on the isolation of an agrin cDNA from E9 chick brain that lacked 21 base pairs (bp) in the NH2-terminal encoding region of the agrin mRNA. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) of E9 chick brain mRNA confirmed the existence of this agrin isoform in brain, although the novel splice variant represents a minor fraction of agrin mRNA in brain. However,...
