Description
Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cardiac muscle contraction; heart development; and muscle cell fate specification. Predicted to be active in myofibril. Is expressed in cardiovascular system; cephalic musculature; gill; muscle; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; hypertrophic cardiomyopathy 10; and infantile-onset myofibrillar myopathy 12 with cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human MYL2 (myosin light chain 2).
