MYO1A (Myosin IA) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with MYO1A include Dfna48 Nonsyndromic Hearing Loss And Deafness and Deafness, Autosomal Dominant 48. Among its related pathways are Sertoli-Sertoli Cell Junction Dynamics and Actin Nucleation by ARP-WASP Complex. MYO1A encodes a member of the myosin superfamily. The protein represents an unconventional myosin; it should not be confused with the conventional skeletal muscle myosin-1 (MYH1). Unconventional myosins contain the basic domains characteristic of conventional myosins and are further distinguished from class members by their tail domains. They function as actin-based molecular motors.
