One of two type I myosin motors; contains proline-rich tail homology 2 (TH2) and SH3 domains; MYO5 deletion has little effect on growth, but myo3 myo5 double deletion causes severe defects in growth and actin cytoskeleton organization; MYO5 has a paralog, MYO3, that arose from the whole genome duplication [Source:SGD;Acc:S000004715]
Chromosome XIII: 486,587-490,246 forward strand.
R64-1-1:BK006946.2
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 355 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is a member of 1 Ensembl protein family.
