Anti-Myosin-10 MYH10 Antibody

Myosin-10; Cellular myosin heavy chain, type B; Myosin heavy chain 10; Myosin heavy chain, non-muscle IIb; Non-muscle myosin heavy chain B; NMMHC-B; Non-muscle myosin heavy chain IIb; NMMHC II-b; NMMHC-IIB; MYH10

Isoform 1 is expressed in cerebellum and spinal chord. Isoform 2 is expressed in cerebrum and retina. Isoform 3 is expressed in the cerebrum and to a much lower extent in cerebellum.

The antibody was affinity-purified from rabbit antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE) .

Cellular myosin that appears to play a role in cytokinesis, cell shape, and specialized functions such as secretion and capping. Involved with LARP6 in the stabilization of type I collagen mRNAs for CO1A1 and CO1A2. During cell spreading, plays an important role in cytoskeleton reorganization, focal contacts formation (in the central part but not the margins of spreading cells), and lamellipodial extension; this function is mechanically antagonized by MYH9.
