Myostatin (growth differentiation factor 8, GDF-8) protein molecule. Growth differentiation factor that limits muscle growth.


Myostatin (growth differentiation factor 8, GDF-8) protein molecule, chemical structure. Growth differentiation factor that limits muscle growth and differentiation. Animals lacking this protein due to a damaged gene show highly increased muscle mass. Atoms are represented as spheres with conventional color coding: hydrogen (white), carbon (grey), oxygen (red), nitrogen (blue), sulfur (yellow).
