Allele (121)
Legacy_informationStructural gene for minor body-wall myosin heavy chain. Mutation st378 is probable null for myo-3 : late embryonic lethal very abnormal muscle ultrastructure. See also sup-3.
e1407sd : partial suppressor of certain mutations of muscle genes unc-15 unc-54 unc-87 e.g. unc-15(e73) unc-54(e1315); no phenotype alone; may be associated with alteration of minor body wall myosin gene myo-3 V and causes increased levels of myo-3 product. Deficiency eDf1 has sup-3 activity. ES3 in presence of e73 ME3. NA > 10 (e1390 etc.). Also super-suppressor alleles (unstable) and antisuppressor alleles derived from e1407 etc.

[Williams BD] Pat (paralysed arrest at two-fold), severe paralysis.
[C.elegansII] st386 : severe Pat (paralysed embryonic arrest at two-fold stage); very abnormal muscle ultrastructure, no MYO-3 staining.OA2 (Pat): st563, st565. Also duplication alleles: e1407sd(pka sup-3, partial suppressor of certain mutations of muscle genes unc-15, unc-54, unc-87), e1390, etc.; Also super-suppressor alleles (unstable). All probably tandem duplications or further amplifications of myo-3. [Dibb et al. 1989; Maruyama et al. 1989; Williams and Waterston 1989]

Structured_descriptionConcise_descriptionmyo-3 encodes MHC A, the minor isoform of MHC (myosin heavy chain) that is essential for thick filament formation, and for viability, movement, and embryonic elongation; expressed in body muscle, the somatic sheath cell covering the hermaphrodite gonad, and also expressed in enteric muscle, vulval muscles of the hermaphrodite and the diagonal muscles of the male tail.Paper_evidence (11)

Automated_descriptionEnables cytoskeletal motor activity. Involved in locomotory behavior and positive regulation of ovulation. Located in A band and striated muscle myosin thick filament. Expressed in body wall musculature; enteric muscle; gonad; vulval muscle; and in male. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including congenital heart disease (multiple); distal myopathy 1; and intrinsic cardiomyopathy (multiple). Is an ortholog of several human genes including MYH1 (myosin heavy chain 1); MYH2 (myosin heavy chain 2); and MYH3 (myosin heavy chain 3).Paper_evidenceWBPaper00065943
