Skeletal myofibers of vertebrates acquire
specialized metabolic and physiological properties as a consequence of
developmental cues in the embryo and different patterns of contractile
activity in the adult. The myoglobin gene is regulated stringently in
muscle fibers, such that high myoglobin expression is observed in
mitochondria-rich, oxidative myofibers (Types I and IIa) compared with
glycolytic fibers (Type IIb). Using germ-line transgenesis and somatic
cell gene transfer methods, we defined discrete regions of the murine and human genes encoding myoglobin that are sufficient to confer muscle- and fiber type-specific expression to reporter genes. Mutational analysis confirms the importance of A/T-rich, MEF2-binding motifs in myoglobin gene regulation, as suggested by previous studies
using different experimental approaches. In addition, we demonstrated a
previously unsuspected role for an intragenic E-box motif as a negative
regulatory element contributing to the tightly regulated variation in
myoglobin gene expression among particular myofiber subtypes.
