The pattern of expression of different types of myosin and the development of different muscle cell populations were studied in the semitendinosus muscle of cattle from 39 d of gestation to 30 d of post-natal life. Monoclonal antibodies specific to different myosin heavy chains were used. Two cell generations were identified during myogenesis. They appeared successively and were characterized by different patterns of expression of myosins. The first population, which was present from the first stage studied (39 d of gestation), gave rise to type I fibers, which, in the mature animal, express only slow myosin. A second generation became differentiated at about 120 d of fetal life and then developed into type II fibers (IIa, IIb or IIc). The beginning of differentiation was characterized in all the cell populations by the expression of specific types of embryonic or fetal myosins. A comparison of these results with findings from previous works shows a marked similarity between species in the pattern of myogenesis but great differences in the length of the different stages of development. In this respect, myogenesis in cattle closely resembles that in man.

D009218 Myosins A diverse superfamily of proteins that function as translocating proteins. They share the common characteristics of being able to bind ACTINS and hydrolyze MgATP. Myosins generally consist of heavy chains which are involved in locomotion, and light chains which are involved in regulation. Within the structure of myosin heavy chain are three domains: the head, the neck and the tail. The head region of the heavy chain contains the actin binding domain and MgATPase domain which provides energy for locomotion. The neck region is involved in binding the light-chains. The tail region provides the anchoring point that maintains the position of the heavy chain. The superfamily of myosins is organized into structural classes based upon the type and arrangement of the subunits they contain.
