Unconventional myosin-Va is a motor protein in charge of the intracellular transport of vesicles, organelles and protein complexes along the actin filaments. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] In humans it is coded for by the MYO5A gene .
Myosin VI is an unconventional myosin motor, which is primarily processive as a dimer, but also acts as a nonprocessive monomer. It walks along actin filaments, travelling towards the pointed end (- end) of the filaments. [44] Myosin VI is thought to transport endocytic vesicles into the cell. [45]

Recent evidence suggests that Myosin-Vb is ...
Creatine kinase in the blood may be high in health and disease. Exercise increases the outflow of creatine kinase to the blood stream for up to a week, and this is the most common cause of high CK in blood. [16] Furthermore, high CK in the blood may be related to high intracellular CK such as in persons of African descent. [17]
MHC-β is a 223 kDa protein composed of 1935 amino acids. [7] [8] MHC-β is a hexameric, asymmetric motor forming the bulk of the thick filament in cardiac muscle.MHC-β is composed of N-terminal globular heads (20 nm) that project laterally, and alpha helical tails (130 nm) that dimerize and multimerize into a coiled-coil motif to form the light meromyosin (LMM), thick filament rod. [9]
In addition, using a separate promoter in an intron in the 3' region, it encodes telokin, a small protein identical in sequence to the C-terminus of myosin light chain kinase, that is independently expressed in smooth muscle and functions to stabilize unphosphorylated myosin filaments.
Myosin VIIA is an unconventional myosin with the longest tail (1360 aa). The tail is expected to dimerize, resulting in a two-headed molecule. Unconventional myosins have diverse functions in eukaryotic cells and are primarily thought to be involved in the movement or linkage of intra-cellular membranes and organelles to the actin cytoskeleton ...
Myosin regulatory light chain 2, ventricular/cardiac muscle isoform (MLC-2) also known as the regulatory light chain of myosin (RLC) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYL2 gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] This cardiac ventricular RLC isoform is distinct from that expressed in skeletal muscle ( MYLPF ), smooth muscle ( MYL12B ) and cardiac atrial ...
