Mechanistic distinctions between agrin and laminin-1 induced aggregation of acetylcholine receptors
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>One of the earliest steps in synaptogenesis at the neuromuscular junction is the aggregation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors at the postsynaptic membrane. This study presents quantitative analyses of receptor and α-Dystroglycan...
