Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * MYH2 is a large protein with a molecular weight of approximately 120 kDa. * It is expressed in a variety of cell types, including progenitor cells, blood vessel endothelial cells, goblet cells, neoplastic cells, abnormal cells, absorptive cells, skeletal muscle cells, cerebral cortex GABAergic interneurons, forebrain radial glial cells, and intestinal crypt stem cells of the colon. * It is a highly dynamic protein that undergoes significant conformational changes during the process of phagocytosis. **Pathways and functions:** * MYH2 is involved in actin filament binding, which is essential for the assembly and stability of actin filaments. * It is also involved in the regulation of phagocytosis, a process by which cells internalize foreign particles. * MYH2 is a key regulator of the immune system, where it is expressed on immune cells such as macrophages and dendritic cells. * It is involved in the regulation of inflammation and cell migration. * It is also involved in the regulation of muscle contraction. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the MYH2 gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, and inflammatory diseases. * Targeting MYH2 has been explored as a therapeutic strategy for these diseases. * In preclinical studies, inhibitors of MYH2 have shown promise in treating cancer and inflammatory diseases. **Additional information:** * MYH2 is a highly conserved gene, with a similar gene found in other mammals. * It is expressed in a variety of cell types, suggesting that it has a vital role in mammalian physiology. * It is a well-studied gene, with a wealth of information available on its structure and function.
