Early myosin precedes heartbeat in chick embryos; extends avian developmental timeline but leaves translational relevance to mammals open.
This study demonstrates that sarcomeric myosin expression in chicken embryos begins as early as stage 7, prior to the onset of the heartbeat and sarcomeric organization.
Han et al. (1992) studied this question.
