Metabolic orchestration of T lineage differentiation and function.

abstract：:The regulatory system of smooth muscle thin filaments is thought to involve a major calcium-calmodulin and actin binding protein: caldesmon. A dissective approach was used to isolate a 35 kDa C-terminal fragment of the molecule and to produce antibodies reacting against both the intact and the 15 kDa N-terminal end of...
