Definition
English
:
The smaller subunits of
MYOSINS
that bind near the
head
groups of
MYOSIN HEAVY CHAINS
. The
myosin light chains
have a
molecular weight
of about 20 KDa and there are usually one essential and one regulatory pair of
light
chains associated with each heavy chain. Many
myosin light chains
that bind
calcium
are considered "calmodulin-like"
proteins.
History Note
English
:
1996; for MYOSIN LIGHT CHAIN use MYOSINS 1982-1995; for MYOSIN ALKALI LIGHT CHAINS use MYOSINS 1990-1995
