Identification of decorin and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans in turkey skeletal muscle

SG Velleman, RA Patterson, and KE Nestor

Department of Animal Sciences, Ohio State University, Wooster 44691, USA.

Turkey pectoral muscles were examined at 15 through 25 d of embryonic age in order to delineate the developmental pattern of proteoglycan expression during skeletal muscle development. Glycosaminoglycan concentration, decorin, and muscle chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (M-CSPG) levels were measured at each developmental age. Glycosaminoglycan levels rose during the developmental period studied, whereas decorin and M-CSPG levels were initially high at Day 15 and then decreased. The results from this study demonstrate the presence of both decorin and M-CSPG during turkey skeletal muscle development.
