Molecular characterization, tissue expression and sequence variability of the barramundi (Lates calcarifer) myostatin gene.

BMC genomics - 19 Feb 2008

De Santis Christian, Evans Brad S, Smith-Keune Carolyn, Jerry Dean R

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Myostatin (MSTN) is a member of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily that negatively regulates growth of skeletal muscle tissue. The gene encoding for the MSTN peptide is a consolidate candidate for the enhancement of productivity in terrestrial livestock. This gene potenti...
