Diversity in nucleocytoplasmic transport pathways.

abstract：:Myofibril assembly requires the cell to join diverse components, correctly oriented to the rest of the cell. Titin, a huge elastic protein with a role in myogenesis, assembles during translation in vivo and may require spatially organized mRNA to allow assembly. By immunofluorescence, we examined titin and myosin prot...
