One of two type I myosins; localizes to actin cortical patches; deletion of MYO3 has little effect on growth, but myo3 myo5 double deletion causes severe defects in growth and actin cytoskeleton organization; MYO3 has a paralog, MYO5, that arose from the whole genome duplication [Source:SGD;Acc:S000001612]

Chromosome XI: 196,349-200,167 reverse strand.

R64-1-1:BK006944.2
