Record overview

MGPD IDMGP002014
Gene ID4634
SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namemyosin, light chain 3, alkali; ventricular, skeletal, slow
Gene Symbol MYL3
SynonymsCMH8; VLC1; MLC1V; MLC1SB;
Alternate namesmyosin light chain 3; CMLC1; cardiac myosin light chain 1; myosin light chain 1, slow-twitch muscle B/ventricular isoform; myosin, light polypeptide 3, alkali; ventricular, skeletal, slow; ventricular/slow twitch myosin alkali light chain;

SummaryMYL3 encodes myosin light chain 3, an alkali light chain also referred to in the literature as both the ventricular isoform and the slow skeletal muscle isoform. Mutations in MYL3 have been identified as a cause of mid-left ventricular chamber type hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
