Cancer cells mainly showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic staining. Cases of papillary adenocarcinoma of thyroid showed strong cytoplasmic immunoreactivity. Most gliomas, lung, skin, testicular, renal and urothelial cancers were negative.
Most cancer cells showed moderate cytoplasmic and/or nuclear positivity. Cases of breast, urothelial, renal, liver and lung cancers displayed strong immunoreactivity. Several lymphomas were negative.

Entrez gene summary
This gene encodes one of the class III myosins. Myosins are ATPases, activated by actin, that move along actin filaments in the cell. This class of myosins are characterized by an amino-terminal kinase domain and shown to be present in photoreceptors. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2014]
