Name
myosin IF
Type
protein-coding

Myosins are molecular motors that use the energy from ATP hydrolysis to generate force on actin filaments. The protein encoded by this gene is an unconventional myosin that may be involved in the intracellular movement of membrane-enclosed compartments. There is evidence to suggest that mutations in this gene can result in hearing loss. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2017].

Myosin-If is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYO1F gene.

It is expressed mainly in the immune system and might be involved in cell adhesion and motility. It is a candidate gene for (among other things) nonsyndromic deafness.
