About Myl9

Summary

Enables Myosin heavy chain binding activity. Located in Z disc and stress fiber. Part of Myosin II complex. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; future spinal cord; genitourinary system; gut; and lung. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human MYL9 (Myosin light chain 9). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
