Broader concept

Entry terms

  • Myosin I

Scope note

  • A subclass of myosins found generally associated with actin-rich membrane structures such as filopodia. Members of the myosin type I family are ubiquitously expressed in eukaryotes. The heavy chains of myosin type I lack coiled-coil forming sequences in their tails and therefore do not dimerize.

History note

  • 2002; for MYOSIN IA & MYOSIN IB use MYOSINS 1988-2001
