MYO18B - myosin XVIIIB Gene
Also Known as KFS4
Species: Homo sapiens
About MYO18B
This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 188 orthologues, 43 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Biased expression in heart (RPKM 11.4) and testis (RPKM 1.5).
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene may regulate muscle-specific genes when in the nucleus and may influence intracellular trafficking when in the cytoplasm. The encoded protein functions as a homodimer and may interact with F actin. Mutations in this gene are associated with lung Cancer. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
