Abstract excerpt
MRF4, myogenin, MyoD, and Myf-5 are the four members of the basic helix-loop-helix family of muscle-specific regulatory factors (MRFs). We examined whether MRF4 could substitute for myogenin in vivo by determining if the myofiber- and MRF4-deficient phenotype of myogenin (-/-) mice could be rescued by a myogenin promoter-MRF4 transgene. When the transgene was expressed at a physiological level in...
