Gene: MYO1F

Alternate names for this Gene: -

Gene Summary: 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.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 19

Location in Chromosome : 19p13.2

Description of this Gene: myosin IF

Type of Gene: protein-coding
