Abstract excerpt
Skeletal muscle represents an excellent model system in which to examine regulatory mechanisms that modulate gene expression in the mature adult organism. Individual muscle fibers can be categorized as fast- or slow-twitch based upon several physiological and molecular criteria, including metabolic enzyme activity and contractile protein isoforms. Each property can be influenced by a variety of factors such as...
