Research Abstract |
We found a novel protein that binds to muscle elastic protein connectin. Our analysis indicates this protein locates at the edge of myosin filament and neuron-muscular junction on striated muscles, and the gene of this protein includes twenty-five exons and produces five splicing isoforms. Additionally, we identified the binding proteins and a break-down protein of novel protein, and also found the existence of this protein in various animals including human and Drosophila.
