The highly conserved fish c-src gene was found to be expressed at high levels in midterm embryos, where c-src mRNA was localized in developing neurons of the sensory layer of the differentiating retina and in the developing brain. In adult tissues the expression of c-src was found to persist in certain cell types of the brain and the neural retina, especially in the bipolar cells of the inner nuclear layer, which are postmitotic, fully differentiated mature neurons. Thus c-src in Xiphophorus appears to be a developmentally regulated proto-oncogene which is important for neuronal differentiation during organogenesis, but whose persistence of expression in certain terminally differentiated neurons strongly suggests a particular maintenance function for c-src in these cells as well.}, subject = {Schwertk{\"a}rpfling}, language = {en} } @article{SchartlHolsteinRobertsonetal.1989, author = {Schartl, Manfred and Holstein, Thomas and Robertson, Scott M. and Barnekow, Angelika}, title = {Preferential expression of a pp60c-src related protein tyrosine kinase activity in nerve cells of the early metazoan Hydra (Coelenterates)}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-86179}, year = {1989}, abstract = {It has been suggested that the proto-oncogene c-src plays a functional role in developing neurons, and in the mature nerve cells of higher vertebrales. The coelenterate Hydra represents tbe most primitive known organism possessing nerve cells. With Southern blot hybridizations we have demonstrated src-related sequences in Hydra. Antisera specific for the c-src gene product (pp60 c-src) of birds and mammals precipitate a protein from Hydra cell extracts with a tyrosine-specific protein kinase activity. Studies of tissues and cells fractionated from a temperature sensitive mutant of Hydra which is depleted of interstitial (including nerve) cells at tbe non-permissive temperature, have indicated the src-like kinase of Hydra to be preferentially expressed in nerve cells. The high conservation of structural features and of the expression pattern indicates a basic function for pp60c-src in neurons.}, subject = {Protein-Tyrosin-Kinasen}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{SchartlMaeuelerRaulfetal.1988, author = {Schartl, Manfred and M{\"a}ueler, Winfried and Raulf, Friedrich and Robertson, Scott M.}, title = {Molecular aspects of melanoma formation in Xiphophorus}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-72689}, year = {1988}, abstract = {No abstract available.}, subject = {Schwertk{\"a}rpfling}, language = {en} }
