Myosin, heavy chain 9, non-muscle is a protein which in humans is encoded by the MYH9 gene.[3][4]

Clinical significance

MYH9 polymorphisms have been shown to associate with glomerulosclerosis[5] and non-diabetic end stage renal disease[6] in African Americans and in Hispanic Americans,[7] though it was later shown that two independent variants in the nearby APOL1 gene were responsible for the increased risk of disease.[8][9]

Model organisms

Model organisms have been used in the study of MYH9 function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Myh9tm1a(EUCOMM)Wtsi[14][15] was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.[16][17][18]

Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion.[12][19] Twenty six tests were carried out on mutant mice and two significant abnormalities were observed.[12] No homozygous mutant embryos were identified during gestation, and therefore none survived until weaning. The remaining tests were carried out on heterozygous mutant adult mice; no additional significant abnormalities were observed in these animals.[12]

Interactions

MYH9 has been shown to interact with PRKCE.[20]
