Abstract

Junctate is a newly identified integral endo(sarco)plasmic reticulum membrane calcium binding protein, which is an alternative splicing form of the same gene generating aspartyl-hydroxylase and junctin. Screening a mouse heart cDNA library using canine junctin cDNA as a probe yielded 3 complete mouse heart cDNAs.(omitted)
