|
Function |
Myosin regulatory subunit that plays an important role in regulation of both smooth muscle and nonmuscle cell contractile activity via its phosphorylation. Implicated in cytokinesis, receptor capping, and cell locomotion.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Smooth muscle tissues and in some, but not all, nonmuscle cells.
