Description

MYO1D encodes a member of the class I myosin family of actin-based motor proteins. These proteins are involved in membrane trafficking, cell motility, and cytoskeletal organization. MYO1D is expressed in various tissues and plays a role in endocytosis, exocytosis, and the movement of vesicles along actin filaments.

Disease Associations

Disease category Pathophysiological mechanism Genomic evidence
Deafness, autosomal dominant 22 (DFNA22) Missense mutations in MYO1D disrupt actin-based motor function in hair cells, leading to progressive hearing loss. ClinVar, OMIM
Usher syndrome type 1 MYO1D variants may contribute to the phenotype when combined with other gene defects, though not a primary cause. ClinVar, OMIM
Cancer (various) Altered MYO1D expression or mutations may affect cell migration and invasion in tumors. COSMIC

Mutation functional classification

Loss of Function (LOF)

Missense mutations in the motor domain reduce actin-activated ATPase activity and impair vesicle transport.

Gain of Function (GOF)

Not reported for MYO1D.

Dominant Negative (DN)

Some missense variants may interfere with wild-type myosin function in heterozygous state.

Protein Summary

MYO1D is a 110 kDa protein with an N-terminal motor domain that binds actin and hydrolyzes ATP, a neck region with IQ motifs that bind calmodulin, and a C-terminal tail domain that interacts with membranes and cargo. It functions as a monomeric motor that moves vesicles along actin filaments, contributing to membrane dynamics and cell shape changes.
