Neuromuscular expression of the BTB/POZ and zinc finger protein myoneurin.

Myoneurin belongs to the BTB/POZ and zinc finger protein family whose members have been implicated in regulatory functions of gene expression. Myoneurin has been identified in various tissues, but muscle is a privileged site of myoneurin gene transcription. We examined the neuromuscular expression of myoneurin during development and after axotomy.
