Agrin induces association of Chrna1 mRNA and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor in C2C12 myotubes

► Chrna1 mRNA was associated with AChR and Stau1 in agrin-stimulated C2C12 myotubes. ► Knocking down Stau1 by RNAi reduced association between Chrna1 mRNA and AChR. ► Agrin-induced AChR clustering was defective in C2C12 myotubes expressing shStau1.
