It has been a banner year for the study of yeast myosins. Thanks to the completion of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome project, it is now known that budding yeast contains a total of five myosins. Furthermore, functions have been newly ascribed to several of them: two have been implicated in endocytosis, and another has been implicated in generating

The birth of widely available genomic databases at the turn of the millennium led to the identification of many previously unknown myosin genes and identification of novel classes of myosin, including MYO19. Further sequence analysis has revealed the unique evolutionary history of class XIX myosins. MYO19 is found in species ranging from vertebrates to

Cooperativity and Regulation of Scallop Myosin and Myosin Fragments
Biochemistry, 1997Scallop heavy meromyosin (HMM) preparation obtained by a new improved method showed a Mg-ATPase activity that was activated 15-fold by calcium. The ATPase activity depended on ionic strength and reached maximum at 0.1 M without altering calcium sensitivity.

Rigidity of myosin and myosin rod by electric birefringence
Biopolymers, 1984AbstractThe rotational relaxation times of rabbit myosin and myosin rod have been determined by electric birefringence measurement. The relaxation time of myosin measured in 10 mM pyrophosphate buffers in a pH range of 7.6–9.5 was found to have substantial concentration and pH dependences.

Myosin X (Myo10), an actin-based molecular motor, induces filopodia formation and controls cell migration in vitro. In the 25 years since Myo10 was first identified, it has been implicated in several different functions in different cell types including phagocytosis in macrophages, axon outgrowth in neurons, cell-cell adhesion in epithelial and ...

Journal of Muscle Research & Cell Motility, 1999
The discovery in the past few years of a huge diversity within the myosin superfamily has been coupled with an understanding of the role of these motor proteins in various cellular functions. Extensive studies have revealed that myosin isoforms are not only involved in muscle contraction but also in crucial functions of many specialized mammalian cells

This review focuses on selected papers that illustrate an historical perspective and the current knowledge of myosin structure and function in protists. The review contains a general description of myosin structure, a phylogenetic tree of the myosin classes, and descriptions of myosin isoforms identified in protists. Each myosin is discussed within the

Myosin II, the myosin which has provided the most biochemical and structural data, is dimeric consisting of a long coiled-coil region with the motor domain flexibly attached to the N-terminal end of the coiled-coil. The motor domain (subfragment 1, S1, or cross-bridge) is obtained by proteolytic cleavage of myosin.
