SUMMARY PARAGRAPH for MYO5

MYO5 is a non-essential gene that encodes one of two class I myosins found in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (6). Both Myo5p and the other yeast class I myosin, Myo3p, localize to actin cortical patches (1, 7). Cortical patches are found at sites of polarized cell growth, and appear to be involved in endocytosis and cell wall biogenesis (8, 7). 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 (9, 1, 2). In a myo3 null background, the temperature sensitive myo5-1 mutant has a defect in the internalization step of endocytosis (2). Physical interaction between Myo5p and calmodulin (Cmd1p) has been detected, and is required for endocytosis (10). Myo5p also interacts physically with verprolin (Vrp1p), and deletion of VRP1 causes delocalization of Myo5p-containing patches (3). Class I myosins play several different roles in many other eukaryotes; see reference 11 for review.
