MYO16: Myosins are actin-based motor molecules with ATPase activity. Unconventional myosins serve in intracellular movements. Their highly divergent tails are presumed to bind to membranous compartments, which would be moved relative to actin filaments. May be involved in targeting of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 1 during brain development. Activates PI3K and concomitantly recruits the WAVE1 complex to the close vicinity of PI3K and regulates neuronal morphogenesis. Belongs to the NYAP family. 4 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.Protein type: Contractile; Motor; Cell cycle regulation; Actin-bindingChromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 13q33.3Cellular Component: cytoplasm; myosin complex; nucleoplasm; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; plasma membraneMolecular Function: actin filament binding; ATP binding; motor activityBiological Process: cerebellum development; metabolic process; negative regulation of cell proliferation
