{"doi":"10.17615/jw45-gs19","title":"pp60c-src in the developing cerebellum.","abstract":"pp60c-src was localized in the cerebellum of developing chicken embryos by immunoperoxidase staining with antisera raised against bacterially expressed pp60v-src. Immunoreactivity (IR) appeared in the cerebellum of the chicken embryos at the time of neuronal differentiation. pp60c-src IR was detected in regions of the developing cerebellum where processes of developing neurons and glia are located. In the early embryo (stage 17), pp60c-src IR was localized in the marginal zone of the cerebellar plate. By stage 40, pp60c-src IR was localized in the process-rich molecular layer of the cerebellum and between the cells of the developing internal granular layer. Cell bodies of cerebellar neurons did not show pp60c-src IR at any stage of development. Mitotically active neuroepithelial cells of the metencephalon did not express pp60c-src before the onset of differentiation in the early embryo, nor did proliferating cells of the external granular layer express pp60c-src at later stages. Although it is not possible to ascertain whether pp60c-src is localized in developing neurons or glia at the light microscope level, the time of its appearance and pattern of distribution in the molecular layer is suggestive of a localization within the developing neuronal processes which compose the bulk of this layer. Biochemical analyses of pp60c-src in the developing cerebellum by the immune complex protein kinase activity and sensitivity of the kinase to inhibition by P1,P4-di(adenosine-5')tetraphosphate confirmed that the expression of pp60c-src coincided with the time of neuronal differentiation. We conclude from these results that in the central nervous systems, pp60c-src may be more important in an aspect of cell differentiation or a mature neuronal function than in the proliferation of neuronal or glial precursors.","journal":"UNC Libraries","year":2020,"id":114463,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":8,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.9471,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2020-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":538716,"name":"P F Maness","orcid":null,"position":1,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":538717,"name":"J M Lauder","orcid":null,"position":2,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":538718,"name":"A C Towle","orcid":null,"position":3,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":538715,"name":"D W Fults","orcid":null,"position":0,"is_corresponding":true}],"reference_count":0,"raw_metadata":null,"created_at":"2026-07-18T23:13:29.674622Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
