  • Title: A membrane-associated dimer of acetylcholinesterase from Xenopus skeletal muscle is solubilized by phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C.
    Author: Inestrosa NC, Fuentes ME, Anglister L, Futerman AH, Silman I.
    Journal: Neurosci Lett; 1988 Jul 19; 90(1-2):186-90. PubMed ID: 3412641.
    Abstract:
    The susceptibility to phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C of the membrane associated acetylcholinesterase (AChE) forms of Xenopus laevis skeletal muscle was examined. This treatment released almost all the detergent-soluble AChE species from muscle homogenates. Sucrose gradient analysis showed that the released acetylcholinesterase form corresponds to a hydrophilic G2 dimer, indicating that this dimer has a glycolipid anchoring domain which contains phosphatidylinositol.
