Detection of a fast isoform of C-protein with an antiserum directed against the N-terminal portion of dystrophin.
An antiserum raised against the N-terminal actin-binding portion of dystrophin cross-reacted with a 130-kDa protein in fast skeletal muscle. The results of purification and two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and its immunological properties demonstrated that this protein is identical to a 130-kDa basic isoform of fast-C-protein. These results suggest that the actin-binding domain of dystrophin shares one or more antigenic determinants with those of C-protein.
