Fusion of myoblasts into multinucleated myofibers is crucial for skeletal muscle development and regeneration.
The lysine methyltransferase Ehmt2/G9a is dispensable for skeletal muscle development and regeneration.
Let's say a farmer discovers that one of his bulls is exceptional for its muscle development and hence meat production.
Genetics can also help determine the impact that weight lifting can have on muscle development and metabolism.
These proteins have also been shown to be involved in heart and muscle development and function in zebrafish muscle development17.
Over two years the children almost doubled their muscle development, and showed dramatic improvements in mental skills.
Myomaker, a muscle specific transmembrane protein, is necessary for myoblast fusion during skeletal muscle development and regeneration27.
Skeletal muscle development and growth is a highly regulated process controlled by interactions between muscle cells and their surrounding microenvironment.
Thereby telethonin plays an important role in myofibril assembly and in muscle development and functional regulation.
During muscle development and regeneration, postmitotic, mononucleated muscle cells fuse with neighbouring postmitotic muscle cells to form long, cylindrical, multinucleated myotubes.
Muscle development and function relies on an intricate network of protein degradation and folding factors whose activity needs to be tightly regulated36.
