Figure 4From: Proteomic analysis of laser capture microscopy purified myotendinous junction regions from muscle sectionsChanges in subcellular localization patterns from the myofibre to the MTJ region illustrated for selected proteins. Note that desmin, αB crystallin and anexin I appear to fill the NMJ region on the muscle side beyond their z-disc localization. Telethonin (z-disc) and myomesin (M line) appear to increase their concentration at the most terminal sarcomeres without changing their characteristic banding patterns. For comparison, the MTJ pattern of α-syntrophin is also shown. All pictures taken with a 63x oil lense with variables zoom factors applied. All scale bars indicate 10 microns.Back to article page
