Abstract:
1. An isolated peptide selected from the group consisting of: a) a peptide consisting of SEQ ID NO:2; b) a peptide consisting of an amino acid sequence that differs from SEQ ID NO:2 by at least one substitution of an amino acid residue at a position of SEQ ID NO:2 selected from the group consisting of: 1, 2, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14, wherein the peptide promotes myoblast differentiation; and c) a peptide consisting of an amino acid sequence that differs from SEQ ID NO:2 by substitutions at positions 1, 5, 6, 9, 11, and 14, wherein the peptide promotes myoblast differentiation; wherein the amino acid residues substituted into positions 1, 2, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 of SEQ ID NO:2 are those residues found at positions 1, 2, 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 in any of SEQ ID NO: 21, SEQ ID NO: 22, SEQ ID NO: 23, and SEQ ID NO: 24, respectively.
