  • Title: Effect of AMPD1 gene polymorphism on muscle activity in humans.
    Author: Fedotovskaya ON, Danilova AA, Akhmetov II.
    Journal: Bull Exp Biol Med; 2013 Feb; 154(4):489-91. PubMed ID: 23486588.
    Abstract:
    Physical activity phenotypes are highly poligenic. Skeletal muscle-specific AMP deaminase isoform, encoded by AMPD1 gene, is stimulated after short-term highly intense exercise and is an important regulator of muscular energy metabolism in exercise. Analysis of restriction fragment length polymorphisms detected much lesser frequency of AMPD1 allele T and genotype TT in athletes engaged in the high-speed and strength sports (N=305) in comparison with humans practicing no sports (N=499). Hence, AMPD1 gene polymorphism C34T can be considered as a marker of liability to the high-speed and strength muscular activity.
