| Common Name | Herculin |
|---|
| Description | Herculin, also known as MYF6 protein, rat or myf-6, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as n-acyl amines. N-acyl amines are compounds containing a fatty acid moiety linked to an amine group through an ester linkage. Thus, herculin is considered to be a fatty amide lipid molecule. Herculin is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Outside of the human body, Herculin has been detected, but not quantified in, herbs and spices. This could make herculin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. This gene is also known in the biomedical literature as MRF4 and herculin. Mutations in the mouse Myf6 gene typically exhibit reduced levels of Myf5. In mouse, Myf6/Mrf4 differs somewhat from the other MRF genes due to its two-phase expression. MYF6 is expressed exclusively in skeletal muscle, and it is expressed at a higher levels in adult skeletal muscle than all of the other MRF family genes. In zebrafish, Myf6/Mrf4 is expressed in all terminally differentiated muscle examined, but expression has not been reported in muscle precursor cells. The precise role(s) of Myf6/Mrf4 in myogenesis are unclear, although in mice it is able to initiate myogenesis in the absence of Myf5 and MyoD, two other MRFs. |
