Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 10627
Gene name Myosin light chain 12A
Gene symbol MYL12A
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
HEL-S-24MLC-2BMLCBMRCL3MRLC3MYL2B
Chromosome 18
Chromosome location 18p11.31
Summary This gene encodes a nonsarcomeric myosin regulatory light chain. This protein is activated by phosphorylation and regulates smooth muscle and non-muscle cell contraction. This protein may also be involved in DNA damage repair by sequestering the transcrip
