MYO1E


Description

MYO1E, the gene encoding myosin IE, is a crucial component of the cellular machinery responsible for movement and transport. Myosin IE, a type of motor protein, uses energy from ATP to move along actin filaments, facilitating a wide range of cellular processes. It plays a critical role in the formation and function of cell junctions, the movement of organelles, and the regulation of cell signaling. Disruptions in MYO1E function can lead to a variety of developmental and disease states.
