Summary: A structural constituent of muscle. Involved in muscle contraction and nematode pharyngeal pumping. Located in striated muscle myosin thick filament. Is expressed in pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including arthrogryposis multiplex congenita; cardiomyopathy (multiple); congenital heart disease (multiple); contractures, pterygia, and spondylocarpotarsal fusion syndrome (multiple); and muscle tissue disease (multiple). Orthologous to several human genes including MYH1 (myosin heavy chain 1); MYH13 (myosin heavy chain 13); and MYH15 (myosin heavy chain 15). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

During the first cytokinesis of the Caenorhabditis elegans embryo, the amount of ring components (myosin, anillin) and the constriction rate increase with parallel exponential kinetics.
Title: A positive-feedback-based mechanism for constriction rate acceleration during cytokinesis in Caenorhabditis elegans.
