Essay topic 5.
5. The neuromuscular junction as a site of disease process
Proteins involved in formation of the neuromuscular junction
The neuromuscular junction is a specialized junction, where a motor nerve forms its synaptic terminal with a muscle fibre, one of many fibres that make up a whole muscle. The mature neuromuscular junction is composed of three types of cells - a motor nerve terminal, a muscle fibre and a Schwann cell covering the junction. All
