title: Electrophoretic patterns of insoluble proteins in the sensory cerebral cortex of visually deprived and normal kittens.
abstract: Insoluble proteins were investigated in the visual cortex (area 17) and somatic sensory cortex of one month old kittens. Visual deprivation did not affect the electrophoretic pattern but changed percentage distribution of proteins in both cortices. Some of the alterations seemed to appear only in the visual cortex, which is morphologically and functionally deficient in deprived kittens. Electrophoretic patterns of normal kittens differed from those of normal adult cats.
