Symbol
MYH2
Name
myosin heavy chain 2
Synonyms
  • CMYO6
  • CMYP6
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity and microfilament motor activity. Involved in muscle contraction. Located in cell-cell junction and myofibril. Part of protein-containing complex. Implicated in congenital myopathy 6 and inclusion body myositis.
RGD Description
Myosins are actin-based motor proteins that function in the generation of mechanical force in eukaryotic cells. Muscle myosins are heterohexamers composed of 2 myosin heavy chains and 2 pairs of nonidentical myosin light chains. This gene encodes a member of the class II or conventional myosin heavy chains, and functions in skeletal muscle contraction. This gene is found in a cluster of myosin heavy chain genes on chromosome 17. A mutation in this gene results in inclusion body myopathy-3. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
