Myosin Light chain, Phosphorylatable, Human, Recombinant

Synonyms

Myosin regulatory light chain 2 skeletal muscle isoform, Fast skeletal myosin light chain 2, MLC2B, MYLPF, MRLC2, MYL11, HUMMLC2B.

Myosin regulatory light chains, including MRCL3, MYLPF and MYL9, regulate contraction in smooth muscle and non-muscle cells via phosphorylation by MLCK (myosin light chain kinase). Phosphorylation of myosin regulatory light chains, catalyzed by MLCK in the presence of calcium and calmodulin, increases the actin-activated myosin ATPase activity, thus regulating the contractile activity. MYLPF is vital for fast and slow skeletal muscle development.

Description

MYLPF produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 189 amino acids (1-169 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 21.2kDa. MYLPF is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
