    basic FUNCTION
  • cellular myosin playing a role in cytokinesis, cell shape, and specialized functions such as secretion and capping
  • with MYH9, modulates neuronal cell adhesion (
  • with MYH10 was found to be critical for driving neuronal process outgrowth
  • nonsarcomeric conventional myosin motor, that must participate in distinctive cellular roles and reinforces our view that closely related motor isoforms drive diverse functions within neuronal cells
  • directly regulates cellular patterning and alignment within the cochlear sensory epithelium
  • MYH9, MYH10, MYH14 are involved in regulating cardiac myocyte karyokinesis by affecting microtubule dynamics
  • MYH9, MYH10, MYH14 are a group of molecular motors involved in a wide variety of cellular processes including cytokinesis, migration, and control of cell morphology
  • although MYH9 and MYH10 form filaments with similar properties, MYH14 forms filaments that are less well suited to roles such as tension maintenance within the cell

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule cofactor,
    ATP binding
    protein
  • interacting with cytoskeletal actin in absence of ATP
  • SDCCAG8 interacts with proteins of the centriolar satellites (OFD1, CEP131), of the endosomal sorting complex (RABEP2, ERC1), and with non-muscle myosin motor proteins (MYH9, MYH10, MYH14) at the centrosome
  • LIMCH1 plays a positive role in regulation of MYH14 activity through effects on myosin regulatory light chain (MRLC) during cell migration
