Facts about Myocyte-specific enhancer factor 2A.
Mediates mobile functions not only in skeletal and cardiac muscle growth, but also in neuronal differentiation and survival. Plays diverse roles in the control of cell growth, survival and apoptosis via p38 MAPK signaling in muscle-specific and/or expansion factor-related transcription.
