βHeavy-spectrin has a restricted tissue and subcellular distribution during Drosophila embryogenesis

1 Jul 1994

Abstract excerpt

The components of the membrane skeleton play an important role in maintaining membrane structure during the dynamic changes in cell shape that characterize development. beta Heavy-spectrin is a unique beta-spectrin from Drosophila melanogaster that is closer in size (M(r) = 430 x 10(3)) to dystrophin than to other beta-spectrin members of the spectrin/alpha-actinin/dystrophin gene super-family. Here we establish...
