Abstract
In muscle cells of the motor muscles of the earthworm Lumbricus terrestris dystrophin, actin, fast and slow isoforms of myosin heavy chains were identified by fluorescence microscopy. It can be assumed that the expression of these proteins was carried out at the earliest stages of the evolutionary formation of the intracellular contractile apparatus of the motor tissue in both invertebrates and vertebrates. This study will complement the picture of the evolutionary formation of motor muscle tissue.
