myoblast cell fate specification involved in skeletal muscle regeneration

id: GO:0014838
name: myoblast cell fate specification involved in skeletal muscle regeneration
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False

Description: The process in which a satellite cell becomes capable of differentiating autonomously into a myoblast cell in an environment that is neutral with respect to the developmental pathway. Upon specification, the cell fate can be reversed. This occurs as part of skeletal muscle regeneration. A myoblast is a mononucleate cell type that, by fusion with other myoblasts, gives rise to the myotubes that eventually develop into skeletal muscle fibers.
