Skeletal muscle cell development is controlled by ________ proteins.
A) homeobox
B) basic domain
C) Hox
D) myogenic bHLH

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Myogenic bHLH proteins play a crucial role in regulating the development of skeletal muscle cells. They bind to DNA and activate genes that promote skeletal muscle differentiation and growth. Homeobox and Hox proteins are involved in regulating development more broadly and may have some role in skeletal muscle development, but are not specifically known as regulators of myogenesis. Basic domain proteins, on the other hand, are a type of DNA-binding domain found in many different kinds of transcription factors and are not specific to regulating skeletal muscle development.
