Abstract
We have isolated MLC1(F) (tMLC1(F)), MLC3(F) (tMLC3(F)) and skeletal actin
cDNAs from the teleost Oncorhynchus mykiss. Sequence analysis indicates tha
t tMLCl(F) and tMLC3F are not produced from differentially spliced mRNAs as
reported in avians and rodents but are encoded by different genes. Results
from RNase protection analysis showed that the corresponding transcripts a
re expressed in fast skeletal muscles. Whole-mount in situ hybridisation re
vealed distinct expression patterns of the myosin alkali light chains and s
keletal actin genes during skeletal muscle development in the embryo. (C) 2
