The pattern of expression of a 13-kDa protein (CS-32 antigen) in the retina and its target nuclei in developing and mature rats.
A polyclonal antibody (designated CS-32) immunopurifies a 13-kDa protein from the superior colliculus (SC) of neonatal rat. There is a strikingly inverse temporal relationship in expression of the 13-kDa protein in the developing retina and its principal target nuclei, SC and the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus. The 13-kDa is a cell-surface protein expressed exclusively by neurones and is clearly associated with synapses.
