Background： Myosin, a structural component of muscle, consists of two heavy chains and four light chains. The protein encoded by this gene is a myosin light chain that may regulate muscle contraction by modulating the ATPase activity of myosin heads. The encoded protein binds calcium and is activated by myosin light chain kinase. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],

Function：function:Myosin regulatory subunit that plays an important role in regulation of both smooth muscle and nonmuscle cell contractile activity via its phosphorylation. Implicated in cytokinesis, receptor capping, and cell locomotion.,miscellaneous:This chain binds calcium.,PTM:Phosphorylation increases the actin-activated myosin ATPase activity and thereby regulates the contractile activity. It is required to generate the driving force in the migration of the cells but not necessary for localization of myosin-2 at the leading edge.,similarity:Contains 3 EF-hand domains.,subunit:Myosin is an hexamer of 2 heavy chains and 4 light chains.,tissue specificity:Smooth muscle tissues and in some, but not all, nonmuscle cells.,

Subcellular Location：Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton . Cytoplasm, cell cortex . Colocalizes with F-actin, MYH9 and PIEZO1 at the actomyosin cortex in myoblasts. .

Expression：Smooth muscle tissues and in some, but not all, nonmuscle cells.
