Interactions of the rapsyn RING-H2 domain with dystroglycan.

Bartoli M, Ramarao MK, Cohen JB

Rapsyn, a peripheral membrane protein of skeletal muscle, is necessary for the formation of the highly organized structure of the vertebrate neuromuscular junction. For mice lacking rapsyn, there is a failure of postsynaptic specialization characterized by an absence of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) and other integral and peripheral membrane proteins such as beta-dystroglycan and utrophin. Dystroglycan is necessary for the ... [more]
