Myl4 - myosin, light chain 4

Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity and actin monomer binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cardiac muscle contraction; positive regulation of ATPase activity; and regulation of the force of heart contraction. Predicted to be located in A band. Predicted to be part of myosin complex. Used to study cardiomyopathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cardiomyopathy and familial atrial fibrillation. Orthologous to human MYL4 (myosin light chain 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
