The tetrameric globular form of acetylcholinesterase (G 4 AChE) is present and precisely controlled in muscles. The assembly and membrane targeting of G 4 AChE are directed by a proline-rich membrane anchor (PRiMA). It has been demonstrated that in m

The presence of a collagenous protein (ColQ) characterizes the collagen-tailed forms of acetylcholinesterase at vertebrate neuromuscular junctions (nmjs). Two ColQ transcripts as ColQ-1 and ColQ-1a, driven by two promoters: pColQ-1 and pColQ-1a, were
