Article Synopsis
- Animal growth and development is regulated by multi-genes, with myostatin (Mstn) acting as a negative regulator and myogenin (Myog) as a positive regulator crucial for muscle cell generation.
- Researchers cloned full-length mstn-1, mstn-2, and myog genes from the economically important fish species Trachinotus blochii to understand their role in muscle growth.
- Analysis showed that mstn and myog genes are highly conserved across species, with differing expression patterns in various tissues and influences from nutritional and environmental factors, indicating their significant roles in muscle growth and potentially other biological functions in fish.
