Background InformationMyosins are a superfamily of molecular motor proteins found in eukaryotic cells. Motor proteins are involved in muscular contraction, cytokinesis, short-range membrane/vesicle transport and a host of other cellular processes. The myosins are responsible for actin-based motility by using the energy of ATP hydrolysis to generate force and movement along actin filaments. There are many isoforms of myosin of which some have specialized functions in certain cell types (such as muscle), while other isoforms are ubiquitous. Myosin X belongs to a group of myosin isoforms known as unconventional myosins that participate in cellular processes ranging from membrane trafficking to signaling and cell motility. Myosin X is concentrated at the tips of filopodia and Myosin X rich regions travel forward and backward along filopods, (Berg, 2002). It also appears that Myosin X functions in actual filopodia formation, (Bohil, 2006).

UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: Myosins are actin-based motor molecules with ATPase activity. Unconventional myosins serve in intracellular movements. Their highly divergent tails are presumed to bind to membranous compartments, which would be moved relative to actin filaments. Plays a role in regions of dynamic actin.

SUBUNIT STRUCTURE: Interacts with ECM29.

CAUTION: Represents a unconventional myosin. This protein should not be confused with the conventional myosin-10 (MYH10).
