Myo9a - myosin IXA

Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP binding activity; GTPase activator activity; and actin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell junction assembly; establishment of epithelial cell apical/basal polarity; and regulation of neuron projection arborization. Predicted to be located in axonal growth cone. Predicted to be part of myosin complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital myasthenic syndrome. Orthologous to human MYO9A (myosin IXA). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
