GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
MYOD1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
bHLHc1, MYF3, MYOD, PUM
Description
Myogenic differentiation 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes a nuclear protein that belongs to the basic helix-loop-helix family of transcription factors and the myogenic factors subfamily. It regulates muscle cell differentiation by inducing cell cycle arrest, a prerequisite for myogenic initiation. The protein is also involved in muscle regeneration. It activates its own transcription which may stabilize commitment to myogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
