Development of adenosine-dependent cyclic AMP accumulation in the avian optic tectum.

abstract：:The window method of radiolabeled protein analysis was used to study the transport kinetics of axonally transported cytomatrix proteins as they move through segments of mouse optic axons. Three slow component b (SCb) proteins--actin, a 30 kDa protein, and clathrin--were radiolabeled in the eye and were followed for up...
