myoblast cell fate specification
id: GO:0048626
name: myoblast cell fate specification
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False
Description: The process in which a 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. 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.
