Abstract：
:Despite the great progress made in setting the basis for the molecular diversity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), an explanation for the existence of two types of amphiphilic subunits, with and without glicosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) (Types I and II), has not been provided yet. In searching whether, as for the deficiency of dystrophin, that of merosin (laminin-alpha2 chain) alters the number of caveolae in muscle, a high increase in caveolin-3 (Cav3) was observed in the Triton X-100-resistant membranes (TRM) isolated from muscle of merosin-deficient dystrophic mice (Lama2dy). The rise in Cav3 was accompanied by that of non-caveolar lipid rafts, as showed by the greater ecto-5'-nucleotidase (eNT) activity, a marker of non-caveolar rafts, in TRM of dystrophic muscle. The observation of AChE activity in TRM, the increased levels of rafts and raft-bound AChE activity in merosin-deficient muscle and the presence of phospholipase C-sensitive AChE dimers in TRM supported targeting of glypiated AChE to rafts. This issue and the involvement of TRM in conveying nicotinic receptors to the neuromuscular junction and particular muscarinic receptors to cardiac sarcolemma strongly support a role for lipid rafts in targeting ACh receptors and glypiated AChE. Their nearby location in the surface membrane may provide cells with a fine tuning for regulating cholinergic responses.
