Controlling muscle mass size and contraction power

One of the goals of our lab is to identify molecules that are important for maintaining muscle mass and strength. In this paper we identify LMCD1 as an important regulator of muscle size. LMCD1 boosts muscle protein synthesis and optimizes calcium usage to increase both muscle mass and strength.
