Abstract excerpt
We have investigated the activity of the Ca(2+)-dependent apoptosis-related transglutaminase type 2 in the mnd/mnd mouse mutant. Transglutaminase activity in mnd/mnd central nervous system (CNS) tissue homogenates was identical to that of healthy animals at 3 months of age, but at 8 months it was greater in the mnd/mnd CNS by up to four times, depending on the region. Western blot analysis showed no difference in...
