Acts as a transcriptional activator that promotes transcription of muscle-specific target genes and plays a role in muscle differentiation. Together with MYF5 and MYOG, co-occupies muscle-specific gene promoter core region during myogenesis. Induces fibroblasts to differentiate into myoblasts. Interacts with and is inhibited by the twist protein. This interaction probably involves the basic domains of both proteins.

蛋白名
Myoblast determination protein 1
亚基
Efficient DNA binding requires dimerization with another bHLH protein. Seems to form active heterodimers with ITF-2. Interacts with SUV39H1 and CDK9. Interacts with DDX5 (By similarity).
亚细胞定位
Nucleus.
翻译后修饰
Phosphorylated by CDK9. This phosphorylation promotes its function in muscle differentiation. Acetylated by a complex containing EP300 and PCAF. The acetylation is essential to activate target genes. Conversely, its deacetylation by SIRT1 inhibits its function (By similarity). Ubiquitinated on the N-terminus; which is required for proteasomal degradation.
相似性
Contains 1 bHLH (basic helix-loop-helix) domain.
功能
Involved in muscle differentiation (myogenic factor). Induces fibroblasts to differentiate into myoblasts. Activates muscle-specific promoters. Interacts with and is inhibited by the twist protein. This interaction probably involves the basic domains of both proteins (By similarity).
