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 ...

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1997
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

Myosin and myosin phosphorylation in pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1984Myosin was isolated from extracts of a clonal cell line of pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells by ammonium sulfate fractionation and gel filtration. This myosin consisted of heavy chains and two light chains (20 and 17 kDa). The 20 kDa light chain could be phosphorylated by a protein kinase which was also present in the extracts and which eluted after myosin

Nearly five decades of research have established myosin as the main motor responsible for cytokinesis in organisms on the branch of the phylogenetic tree that includes amoebas, fungi and animals. This research has grown to be more mechanistic over the past decade, so we now have computer simulations of physically reasonable models that explain how ...

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.

Class XVIII myosins represent a branch of the myosin family tree characterized by the presence of large N- and C-terminal extensions flanking a generic myosin core. These myosins display the highest sequence similarity to conventional class II muscle myosins and are compatible with but not restricted to myosin-2 contractile structures.

Myosins constitute a superfamily of actin-based molecular motor proteins that mediates a variety of cellular activities including muscle contraction, cell migration, intracellular transport, the formation of membrane projections, cell adhesion, and cell signaling. The 12 myosin classes that are expressed in humans share sequence similarities especially

Essays in Biochemistry, 2000
Myosins constitute a large superfamily of F-actin-based motor proteins found in many organisms from yeast to humans. A phylogenetic comparison of their head sequences has allowed them to be grouped into 15 different classes. Unconventional myosins can be monomeric or dimeric, but are thought not to form filaments, unlike conventional myosin. The double-

Myosin XVI (Myo16), a vertebrate-specific motor protein, is a recently discovered member of the myosin superfamily. The detailed functionality regarding myosin XVI requires elucidating or clarification; however, it appears to portray an important role in neural development and in the proper functioning of the nervous system.

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
