Gene: MYL3
Alternate names for this Gene: CMH8|MLC-lV/sb|MLC1SB|MLC1V|VLC1|VLCl
Gene Summary: MYL3 encodes myosin light chain 3, an alkali light chain also referred to in the literature as both the ventricular isoform and the slow skeletal muscle isoform. Mutations in MYL3 have been identified as a cause of mid-left ventricular chamber type hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 3
Location in Chromosome : 3p21.31
