Immunocytochemical evidence of the localization of the Crumbs homologue 3 protein (CRB3) in the developing and mature mouse retina.

CRB3 (Crumbs homologue 3), a member of the CRB protein family (homologous to the Drosophila Crumbs), is expressed in different epithelium-derived cell types in mammals, where it seems to be involved in regulating the establishment and stability of tight junctions and in ciliogenesis. This protein ha...
