Abstract excerpt
MyoD1 alleles distinguish between the Mm musculus and Mm domesticus subspecies of Mus musculus. SJL/J mice, which belong to the Mm musculus subspecies, are able to regenerate skeletal muscle more efficiently than BALB/c mice which possess the Mm domesticus MyoD1 allele. Hence the possibility that regeneration responses are due to species-specific genetic differences including MyoD1 was investigated in this study....
