Protein name Class A basic helix-loop-helix protein 15 (bHLHa15) (Class B basic helix-loop-helix protein 8) (bHLHb8) (Muscle, intestine and stomach expression 1) (MIST-1)
Protein function Plays a role in controlling the transcriptional activity of MYOD1, ensuring that expanding myoblast populations remain undifferentiated. Repression may occur through muscle-specific E-box occupancy by homodimers. May also negatively regulate bHL
