  • Title: [Alpha-actinin in the electric organ of Electrophorus electricus, L].
    Author: Dos Santos Mermelstein C, Moura Neto V, Chagas C.
    Journal: C R Acad Sci III; 1988; 307(13):717-21. PubMed ID: 3142646.
    Abstract:
    We have identified Alpha-actinin from the electric organ of the Electrophorus electricus, L. It was analysed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and identified by immunoblotting. This protein was also found in a membrane fraction of the electric organ enriched with components of the cytoskeleton. Our results suggest that this protein might play a role either in the organization of the microfilaments or its interactions with the membrane to maintain a polarized electrocyte.
