MYL2 - myosin light chain 2 Gene

Homo sapiens

Also known as MLC2; CMH10; MFM12; MLC-2; MLC-2v; MLC-2s/v

Gene ID: 4633 | Gene type: protein coding

About MYL2

Cytogenetic location: 12q24.11 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:110,910,845-110,920,579 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 253 orthologues, 7 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Restricted expression toward heart (RPKM 6074.6).

Summary

This gene encodes a major sarcomeric protein in mammalian striated muscle. The encoded protein plays a role in embryonic heart muscle structure and function, while phosphorylation of the encoded protein is involved in cardiac Myosin cycling kinetics, torsion and function in adults. Mutations in this gene are associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 10 and infant-onset myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]
