Recombinant human MYL12B protein
Myosin, light chain 12B, regulatory, also known as MYL12B, is a hexameric ATPase cellular motor protein. Myosin is composed of two heavy chains, two nonphosphorylatable alkali light chains, and two phosphorylatable regulatory light chains. MYL12B regulates contraction in smooth muscle and non-muscle cells via phosphorylation by myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) . Phosphorylation of myosin regulatory light chains, catalyzed by MLCK in the presence of calcium and calmodulin, increases Actin-activated myosin ATPase activity, thereby regulating contractile activity. Recombinant human MYL12B protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
