Similar sequences but dissimilar biological functions of GDF11 and myostatin
Growth factors: untangling twin proteins A growth factor protein called GDF11 has potential for rejuvenation of heart, brain, and muscle tissues, but first its relationship with a twin growth factor (MSTN) must be unraveled. Although GDF11 and MSTN are almost identical in amino acid sequence, MSTN c...
