Function Summary
- Entrez Summary: N/A
- UniProt Summary: Unconventional myosin required during immune response for detection of rare antigen-presenting cells by regulating T- cell migration. Unconventional myosins are actin-based motor molecules with ATPase activity and serve in intracellular movements. Acts as a regulator of T-cell migration by generating membrane tension, enforcing cell-intrinsic meandering search, thereby enhancing detection of rare antigens during lymph-node surveillance, enabling pathogen eradication. Also required in B- cells, where it regulates different membrane/cytoskeleton- dependent processes. Involved in Fc-gamma receptor (Fc-gamma-R) phagocytosis. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q5SUA5}.
