Gene information for MYOM2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9172
Official gene symbolMYOM2
Full namemyomesin (M-protein) 2, 165kDa
Aliases,TTNAP,
Gene summaryThe giant protein titin, together with its associated proteins, interconnects the major structure of sarcomeres, the M bands and Z discs. The C-terminal end of the titin string extends into the M line, where it binds tightly to M-band constituents of apparent molecular masses of 190 kD and 165 kD. The predicted MYOM2 protein contains 1,465 amino acids. Like MYOM1, MYOM2 has a unique N-terminal domain followed by 12 repeat domains with strong homology to either fibronectin type III or immunoglobulin C2 domains. Protein sequence comparisons suggested that the MYOM2 protein and bovine M protein are identical. [provided by RefSeq]
