Effect of beta-Dystroglycan Processing on Utrophin / DP116 Anchorage in Normal and MDX Mouse Schwann Cell Membrane [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience 141 (18/04/2006) 607-620, 2007
In the peripheral nervous system, utrophin and the short dystrophin isoform (Dp116) are co-localized at the outermost layer of the myelin sheath of nerve fibers; together with the dystroglycan complex. In peripheral nerve, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) creates a 30 kDa fragment of beta-dystroglycan, leading to a disruption of the link between the ...
