Changes in chick muscle microtubules during development and in vitro differentiation

The microtubule protein concentration of the soluble fraction of chick muscles decreases, depending on the assay procedure used, between 25 and 80% during the 11th to the 19th day of embryonic development, dropping much more drastically thereafter. In contrast, a significant increase is observed upo...

In contrast, a significant increase is observed upon in vitro differentiation of muscle cultures.

Moreover, the variations of these enzymatic activities are not parallel during development. Phosphorylation in vitro, under saturating conditions, of the embryonic and of the undifferentiated muscle microtubular fractions is significantly higher than that of the adult or differentiated microtubules, respectively.
