About Myocd

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including R-SMAD binding activity; enzyme binding activity; and transcription coactivator activity. Involved in several processes, including hepatic stellate cell activation; positive regulation of cell differentiation; and positive regulation of transcription from RNA polymerase II promoter involved in smooth muscle cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital megabladder. Orthologous to human MYOCD (myocardin).
