Abstract excerpt
Myogenesis is a several step process that requires genes involved in specifying mesoderm lineage and genes involved in determining muscle identity, differentiation, and patterning. We report here on the isolation, characterization, and expression pattern of a cDNA clone encoded by the previously...
