Gene Information

human ... MYLK3(91807)

General description

The myosin light chain kinase 3 (MYLK3) codes for cardiac myosin light chain kinase (cMLCK) protein.[1] It is located in the perijunctional actomyosin belt.[2] This gene is located on human chromosome 16q11.2.[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

MYLK3 (or myosin light chain kinase 3) plays a key role in rate of cross-bridge recruitment in cardiac myocytes. MYLK3 is upregulated in failing human myocardia and expression of MYLK3 correlates with the pulmonary arterial pressure of patients with heart failure. Knockdown of MYLK3 with small interfering RNAs in cultured rat cardiomyocytes decreases Myl2 phosphorylation and impairs epinephrine-induced activation of sarcomere reassembly. Recombinant murine MYLK3 shows specificity for Myl2 (Mlc2v) and the phosphorylation is calcium- and calmodulin-dependent.
MYLK3 (myosin light chain kinase 3) plays a major role in the modulation of actin cytoskeleton and immune response signalling.[3] It controls the epithelial tight junctions and the structure of actomyosin belt.[2] MYLK3 also participates in the intestinal TJ (tight junction) permeability.[4]

Supplied in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, with 150 mM NaCl, 0.25 mM DTT, 0.1 mM EGTA, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM PMSF, and 25% glycerol.
