Abstract excerpt
To determine the role of mutant SOD1 gene (SOD1(G93A)) on muscle cell differentiation, we derived C2C12 muscle cell lines carrying a stably transfected SOD1(G93A) gene under the control of a myosin light chain (MLC) promoter-enhancer cassette. Expression of MLC/SOD1(G93A) in C2C12 cells resulted in dramatic inhibition of myoblast differentiation. Transfected SOD1(G93A) gene expression in postmitotic skeletal...
