Regulation of Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) mRNA by Ryanodine-Sensitive and L-Type Calcium Channels during Myogenesis in Vitro and Muscle Development in Vivo
The increase in AChE mRNA associated with muscle differentiation is due to stabilization of a labile mRNA rather than enhanced transcription (Fuentes and Taylor, Neuron, 10, 679–687, 1993). In a search for the...
