Abstract excerpt
Myogenin is a skeletal muscle-specific transcription factor that can activate myogenesis when introduced into a variety of nonmuscle cell types. Activation of the myogenic program by myogenin is dependent on its binding to a DNA sequence known as an E box, which is associated with numerous muscle-specific genes. Myogenin shares homology with MyoD and other myogenic regulatory factors within a basic region and a...
