Popis: | LBP-32 is a cell surface and cytoplasmic protein which is thought to both mediate cell attachment to laminin and play a role in translation initiation. In the present study, antisense RNA for LBP-32 was used to document its cellular mRNA expression pattern in newborn mouse eye. In situ hybridization revealed that LBP-32 was distributed uniformly through the retina as well as over anterior oblique muscle, in corneal and lens epithelial cells and in capillary endothelial cells of the choroid. This unique cell-specific expression raises interesting questions of the role of LBP-32 in eye development. |
