Molecular characterization of myostatin-like genes expressed highly in the muscle tissue from Morotoge shrimp, Pandalopsis japonica
2010-10-01
Abstract excerpt
Myostatin is one of the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β family members and plays inhibitory roles in the development and growth of muscle in mammals. Mammalian myostatins have been studied intensively, considering its medical and industrial potential use. Still, limited information is available about myostatin homologues in crustaceans. In the present study, we isolated for the first time cDNA that encodes for...
