In fish, the slow-twitch skeletal muscle fibres have an oxidative metabolism, present peripherical location in the red muscle, and are used for sustained movements. They may respond to alterations in food availability differently than the fast-twitch muscle. The aim of this manuscript was to study ...
The zebrafish u-boot (ubo) gene encodes the transcription factor Prdm1, which is essential for the specification of the primary slow twitch muscle fibres that derive from adaxial cells. Here we show that Prdm1 executes this function by acting as a transcriptional repressor. Expression of the slow tw...
We simultaneously extracted DNA and protein from >200 single fibres per participant (7 males, 5 females) to directly compare methylome and proteome profiles of Type I and Type II human skeletal muscle fibres. Using the EPICv2 array and LC-MS/MS, we identified 5,689 robust DMRs (FDR <0.001) and 338 D...
