Myo5c Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity and microfilament motor activity. Predicted to be involved in actin filament organization and endocytosis. Predicted to act upstream of or within establishment of secretory granule localization. Predicted to be located in secretory granule. Predicted to be active in actin cytoskeleton; cytoplasm; and membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including gut; liver; respiratory system; sensory organ; and submandibular gland primordium. Orthologous to human MYO5C (myosin VC). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Myo5c often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
