PubMed PubMed Product Detail The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family and the TGF-beta superfamily. This group of proteins is characterized by a polybasic proteolytic processing site which is cleaved to produce a mature protein containing seven conserved cysteine residues. The members of this family are regulators of cell growth and differentiation in both embryonic and adult tissues. This gene is thought to encode a secreted protein which negatively regulates skeletal muscle growth. Acts specifically as a negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth. [SUBUNIT] Homodimer; [TISSUE SPECIFICITY] Expressed specifically in developing and adult skeletal muscle. Weak expression in adipose tissue. Belongs to the TGF-beta family.
Function:
Acts specifically as a negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth.
Subunit:
Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Interacts with WFIKKN2, leading to inhibit its activity. Interacts with FST3.
Subcellular Location:
Secreted
Tissue Specificity:
Predominantly expressed in muscle. At hatching, expression is strongest in the skin epithelium, and is also found in the retina and brain. From day 28, expressed in skeletal muscle. In the adult, highest expression is seen in the gastrointestinal tract, brain, muscle, heart and testis. Also expressed in the adult pharynx, kidney, spleen, liver, gill, eyes, skin, swim bladder and ovary.
DISEASE:
Defects in MSTN are the cause of muscle hypertrophy (MSLHP) [MIM:614160]. MSLHP is a condition characterized by increased muscle bulk and strength. Affected individuals are exceptionally strong.
Similarity:
Belongs to the TGF-beta family.
