ADDITIONAL INFORMATION for MYO3

SUMMARY PARAGRAPH for MYO3

MYO3 is a non-essential gene that encodes one of two class I myosins found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (4). Both Myo3p and the other yeast class I myosin, Myo5p, localize to actin cortical patches (5, 6). Cortical patches are found at sites of polarized cell growth, and appear to be involved in endocytosis and cell wall biogenesis (7, 6). Deletion of either MYO3 or MYO5 has little effect on cell growth, but the myo3 myo5 double deletion causes severe defects in growth and actin cytoskeleton organization (8, , 1). In a myo3 null background, the temperature sensitive myo5-1 mutant has a defect in the internalization step of endocytosis (1). Class I myosins play several different roles in many other eukaryotes; see reference 9 for review.
