Function |
Muscle contraction.
|
Subcellular Location |
Melanosome {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081065}. Note=Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV. Thick filaments of the myofibrils.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Smooth muscle; expressed in the umbilical artery, bladder, esophagus and trachea. Isoform 1 is mostly found in slowly contracting tonic muscles. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16000639}.
