Gene information for MYL4 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID4635
Official gene symbolMYL4
Full namemyosin, light chain 4, alkali; atrial, embryonic
Aliases,ALC1,AMLC,GT1,PRO1957,
Gene summaryMyosin is a hexameric ATPase cellular motor protein. It is composed of two myosin heavy chains, two nonphosphorylatable myosin alkali light chains, and two phosphorylatable myosin regulatory light chains. This gene encodes a myosin alkali light chain that is found in embryonic muscle and adult atria. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
