About Myl12b

Summary

Enables Myosin heavy chain binding activity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of cell shape. Located in Z disc; apical part of cell; and stress fiber. Part of Myosin II complex. Orthologous to several human genes including MYL12A (Myosin light chain 12A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
