MYL1 myosin light chain 1 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 4632)
Symbol: MYL1
Full name: myosin light chain 1
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: MLC-1; MLC1; MLC1/3; MLC1F; MLC3F; MYOFTA
Summary: Myosin is a hexameric ATPase cellular motor protein. It is composed of two heavy chains, two nonphosphorylatable alkali light chains, and two phosphorylatable regulatory light chains. This gene encodes a myosin alkali light chain expressed in fast skeletal muscle. Two transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
