Abstract excerpt
To survey the presence of the four different isoforms of the plasma membrane calcium pump (PMCA) and their alternative splicing variants in the rat kidney, three major zones (cortex, outer medulla, and inner medulla) were macrodissected and probed for the presence of mRNA encoding these isoforms...
