Fig. 1From: Specific localization of nesprin-1-α2, the short isoform of nesprin-1 with a KASH domain, in developing, fetal and regenerating muscle, using a new monoclonal antibodyExpression of nesprin-1 isoforms and muscle markers in cultured control myoblasts and myotubes. Quantitative PCR to show mRNA expression relative to the expression of two endogenous controls. a nesprin-1-giant and nesprin-1-α2 and b desmin (intermediate filament) and muscle creatine kinase (differentiation marker). Bar charts represent the mean relative expression ± SEM of 5 control cell lines, with values for the individual cell lines shown in Table 1 Back to article page
