MYO7B - myosin VIIB Gene
Species: Homo sapiens
About MYO7B
This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 257 orthologues and 43 paralogues. Biased expression in duodenum (RPKM 42.9), small intestine (RPKM 30.6) and 5 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is found in brush border microvilli of epithelial cells in the intestines and kidneys. The encoded protein is involved in linking protocadherins to the actin Cytoskeleton and is essential for proper microvilli function. This protein aids in the accumulation of intermicrovillar adhesion components such as harmonin and ANKS4B, and this accumulation is necessary for normal brush border action.
