Abstract
The myostatin protein, belonging to the family of growth factors, represents a potential target for therapeutic effects in muscular system pathologies. However, this protein is characterized by other beneficial properties. Polymorphisms of the myostatin gene associated with the restriction of its functional activity are useful as genetic markers of meat productivity in farm animals. Blocking the action of myostatin in productive animals can be achieved by inducing the synthesis of specific autoantibodies using recombinant myostatin, possessing sufficient immunogenicity against myostatin as an antigen. A genetic construct was created and an E. coli producer strain with a high level of expression of recombinant myostatin was obtained.
