Abstract/Summary:
A cDNA clone was isolated for the glial intermediate filament protein (ON;These proteins are not specific to the optic nerve. The ON;The expression of the K8 and K18 proteins in the goldfish optic nerve, proteins not usually expressed in glial cells but shown to be associated with development, may be involved with the processes of growth and regeneration in the goldfish visual pathway.
