The primary goal of this research project is the molecular study of locomotor apparatus referred to genes involved into tissue specific gene expression regulation, specifically the research will be directed to the study of the role of ribonucleoproteins hnRNP in gene expression of muscle-specific myogenic regulatory factors during myoblast differentiation and molecular genetics study of genes involved into determination of bone mineral density
