Background: Myogenin

Myogenin, also called MYF4, is a 34 kDa, 224 amino acid (aa) basic-HLH transcription factor member of the myogenic regulatory factor (MRF) family. It induces fibroblastic differentiation to myoblasts and is expressed most highly early in the skeletal muscle differentiation process. Within the region used as an immunogen, human myogenin shares 93% and 91% aa identity with mouse and rat myogenin, respectively. Isoforms may exist that diverge at aa 155 (246 aa form) or that are truncated at aa 215.
