abstract：:Rat brain microtubules were prepared at the adult stage and from immature (i.e., 4-day-old) animals. At an early stage of development, the composition of microtubule-associated proteins is qualitatively different from that found at the adult stage [(1982) Eur. J. Biochem. 129, 465-471]. The influence of calmodulin on ...
