The SNPs in myoD gene from normal muscle developing individuals have no effect on muscle mass
Background Myogenic Differentiation 1 (MyoD) is a crucial master switch in regulating muscle-specific gene transcription. Forced expression of myoD is equipped to induce several cell lineages into myoblast, which then differentiate and fuse into myotube.
