MYO5B
Encyclopedia
Myosin-Vb is a protein
that in humans is encoded by the MYO5B gene
.
Recent evidence suggests that Myosin VB is related to the creation of memories.

Protein
Proteins are biochemical compounds consisting of one or more polypeptides typically folded into a globular or fibrous form, facilitating a biological function. A polypeptide is a single linear polymer chain of amino acids bonded together by peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino groups of...

Gene
A gene is a molecular unit of heredity of a living organism. It is a name given to some stretches of DNA and RNA that code for a type of protein or for an RNA chain that has a function in the organism. Living beings depend on genes, as they specify all proteins and functional RNA chains...

Mutations of MYO5B causes microvillous inclusion disease
Microvillous inclusion disease
Microvillous inclusion disease, also known as Davidson's disease, congenital microvillous atrophy and, less specifically, microvillous atrophy, is a rare genetic disorder of the small intestine that is inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern.-Presentation:It is characterized by chronic,...

Interactions
MYO5B has been shown to interactProtein-protein interaction
Protein–protein interactions occur when two or more proteins bind together, often to carry out their biological function. Many of the most important molecular processes in the cell such as DNA replication are carried out by large molecular machines that are built from a large number of protein...

RAB11FIP2
Rab11 family-interacting protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the RAB11FIP2 gene.-Interactions:RAB11FIP2 has been shown to interact with MYO5B, RAB11A and RAB25.-Further reading:...
