About Myl6

Summary

Predicted to be a structural constituent of muscle. Predicted to be involved in muscle filament sliding and skeletal muscle tissue development. Part of unconventional Myosin complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver and biliary system. Orthologous to human MYL6 (Myosin light chain 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
