Gene information for MYL6B (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID140465
Official gene symbolMYL6B
Full namemyosin, light chain 6B, alkali, smooth muscle and non-muscle
Aliases,MLC1SA,
Gene summaryMyosin 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 both slow-twitch skeletal muscle and in nonmuscle tissue. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq]
