  • two nucleolar localization signals (NoLS), that are functional and necessary for nucleolar localization of specifically MYOIC isoform B
  • a tail with a TH motif (short tail), that can inhibit kinesin motor activity, increase the stability of microtubules (MTs), and form crosslinks between MTs and F-actin
  • a C terminal globular domain, implicated in membrane binding

    text
  • single headed member of the myosin superfamily that localizes to the cytoplasm and the nucleus, where it is involved in transcription by RNA polymerases I and II, intranuclear transport, and nuclear export
  • detected in lipid rafts of B cells
  • is typically localized at the plasma membrane as a dense fibrous network and marginally in the nucleoplasm as punctate foci
  • basic FUNCTION
  • unconventional, apparently non filamentous, may be involved in the adaptation response in the inner ear
  • involved in intracellular movements
  • cooperates with WICH to facilitate transcription on chromatin
  • general transcription factor for RNA polymerases, involved in transcription by RNA polymerase I
  • playing a crucial role for the formation of the first phosphodiester bond during transcription initiation
  • participates along with nuclear actin in transcription and chromatin remodeling
  • in stereocilia of the hair cells in the inner ear, presumably serves as the adaptation motor, which regulates the opening and closing of transduction channels (A
  • mediates the cycling of SLC2A4 transporters in adipocytes by promoting the fusion of SLC2A4-containing vesicles with the cell membrane
  • novel MYO1C-dependent molecular mechanism that mediates the dynamic organization of KIRREL and NPHS1 at the slit diaphragm and is critical for podocyte function
  • is potentially involved in the regulation of MT function during mitosis
  • MYO1C-facilitated G-actin transport might be a critical node for control of cell polarity and motility
  • contributed to insulin-dependent actin filament remodeling
  • is an important mediator of VEGF-induced KDR delivery to the cell surface and plays a role in angiogenic signaling
  • involved in driving the recycling of lipid-raft enriched membranes from the perinuclear recycling compartment to the cell surface
  • role for MYO1C in regulating the actin structures, as MYO1C manipulations lead to loss of the actin filaments and to similar ER phenotype as observed after actin depolymerization
  • having nuclear myosin1 (NM1) function
  • tumor suppressor activity of INPP5K and MYO1C, with overlapping roles in phosphoinositide (PI) 3-kinase/Akt signaling, known to be vital for the cell growth and survival

    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • part of a multiprotein complex that contains WICH, a chromatin remodelling complex containing BAZ1B (Williams syndrome transcription factor), SMARCA5, MYO1C
  • LMNA, EMD are part of a nuclear sub-complex, that partner with Nuclear Myosin 1 (MYO1C) and actin
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • binds calmodulin through its IQ motifs
  • CABP1 and CIB1 are two myristoylated proteins that bind the MYO1C regulatory domain
  • interaction between KIRREL and the motor protein MYO1C, where MYO1C plays an active role in targeting KIRREL to the podocyte cell membrane
  • similarly to KIRREL, also binds NPHS1 and reduces its localization at the podocyte cell membrane
  • MYO1C, an actin-based motor protein that associates with membranes and actin filaments, is required for insulin-induced vesicle tethering in muscle cells
  • interaction of vesicular MYO1C with cortical actin filaments is required for insulin-mediated tethering of SLC2A4 vesicles and for efficient SLC2A4 surface delivery in muscle cells
  • binds SMARCA5 with enhanced affinity upon impairment of the actin-binding function
  • CRK-MYO1C interaction, which modulates membrane dynamics by regulating RAC1 activity, is crucial for cell adhesion and spreading
  • PRKCDBP facilitates signal transduction to MAPK1 by anchoring caveolae to the membrane skeleton of the plasma membrane via MYO1C
  • relationship between MYO1C and KAT6B suggesting that the two are interacting in chromatin remodelling for gene expression
  • LMNA, and EMD modulate the nuclear localization of MYO1C
  • LMNA is a modulator of MYO1C localization in cells, as it regulates the stability of EMD-MYO1C interactions
  • LMNA and EMD partner to modulate genome organization via their cytoskeletal interactors – actin and MYO1C
  • cell & other
  • binds to MTs and has a role in maintenance of spindle stability for accurate chromosome separation
