Disease relevance of SLMAP

 

High impact information on SLMAP

  • These data provide further evidence that dystrophin is a sarcolemma-associated protein, that it is developmentally regulated, and that it is absent or greatly reduced in quantity in skeletal muscle cultures from patients with DMD [2].
  • In conclusion, in normal human muscle cultures DGC and vinculin-talin-integrin proteins are first localized in the perinuclear region, then they diffuse in the cytoplasm and finally form at the plasma membrane into typical rib-like structures that are sarcolemma-associated [3].
  • This reciprocal control may determine, in different conditions, the prevalence of one system over another with a consequent transmission of different messages to the sarcolemma-associated cytoskeleton [4].
