MYO1F
Function
Myosins are actin-based motor molecules with ATPase activity. Unconventional myosins serve in intracellular movements. Their highly divergent tails are presumed to bind to membranous compartments, which would be moved relative to actin filaments (By similarity).
Involvement in disease
Defects in MYO1F has been found in a patient with a form of non-syndromic sensorineural hearing loss.
Sequence Similarities
Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Myosin family.
Alternative names
Unconventional myosin-If, Myosin-Ie, MYO1F
