The recombinant plasmid was transformed into XL1-blue. Expression protein was induced by IPTG and then purified by SDS-PAGE and electroelution, which was used to prepare the polycolonal antibody to detect the distribution and expression of nmMLCK in rabbit livers with immunofluorescene techniques.RESULTS: The polyclonal antibody was prepared, by which nmMLCK expression was detected and distributed mainly in peripheral hepatocytes.CONCLUSION: nmMLCK can express in hepatocytes peripherally, and may play certain roles in the regulation of hepatic functions.展开更多
