Fig. 1. Adhesion factors for mammalian myoblast fusion.

Fig. 1.

Myocytes can interact through multiple cell surface proteins, which function to bring membranes within 25 nm. Genetic deletion of one of these adhesion factors has not resulted in a myoblast fusion phenotype in vivo, suggesting compensation or that the central adhesion factor remains to be discovered (TBD).
