The coupled transport of Na +and HCO 3 -across the plasma membrane of epithelial cells is involved in the regulation of intracellular pH, intracompartmental pH, and intercompartmental pH gradients in many organ systems, as suggested by expression of NBCs in the kidney, pancreas, heart, retina, skeletal muscle and other organs [ 1, 2, 3].
In an animal cell, cytokinesis involves the generation of force in the region of the contractile ring (reviewed in [ 1 ] ). This was first appreciated in the 1960's when Rappaport demonstrated that the cleavage furrow cortex of echinoderm eggs produced force that was capable of bending a glass needle (reviewed in [ 1 ] ). Using calibrated needles, Rappaport directly measured the force that the contractile ring produced [ 2 ] . During the 1970's, nonmuscle myosin-II, the equivalent of the force producing molecule of skeletal muscle, was shown to localize to the region of the cleavage furrow cortex, suggesting the molecular basis for contractile force (reviewed in [ 1 3 ] ). Indeed, subsequent genetic studies revealed a nearly ubiquitous requirement for nonmuscle myosin-II during cytokinesis in organisms ranging from the cellular slime molds to metazoans (reviewed in [ 3 ] ).
The characteristic appearance of skeletal muscle in Lifr -/- mice may be due to altered metabolism as evidenced by glycogen accumulation.
This cell has been characterized extensively and differentiates into skeletal and cardiac muscle or neuronal cells, depending on whether it is treated with DMSO or retinoic acid (RA) respectively [ 23, 24, 25].
The exclusive expression of the promoter 1b construct in skeletal muscle differs markedly from the previously reported expression of a promoter 1c construct [ 27 ] . The previously tested reporter 1c construct was identical to the promoter 1b construct injected here except for the promoter sequences.
