Summary
MYO9A (myosin IXA, HGNC:7608) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 15q23, encoding Unconventional myosin-IXa (B2RTY4). Myosins are actin-based motor molecules with ATPase activity.
This gene encodes a member of the myosin superfamily. The protein represents an unconventional myosin; it should not be confused with the conventional non-muscle myosin-9 (MYH9). Unconventional myosins contain the basic domains of conventional myosins and are further distinguished from class members by their tail domains. They function as actin-based molecular motors. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Bardet-Biedl Syndrome.

Function. Myosins are actin-based motor molecules with ATPase activity. Unconventional myosins serve in intracellular movements. Regulates Rho by stimulating its GTPase activity in neurons. Required for the regulation of neurite branching and motor neuron axon guidance.
Subcellular location. Membrane. Cytoplasm. Synapse. Cell projection. Growth cone.
Tissue specificity. Found to be expressed in testis and placenta and at lower levels in all the examined tissues with the exception of liver. Isoform 5: Found in leukocytes but not in brain, retina or testis.
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated by ALPK1 following monosodium urate monohydrate (MSU)-induced inflammation.
Disease relevance. Myasthenic syndrome, congenital, 24, presynaptic (CMS24) [MIM:618198] A form of congenital myasthenic syndrome, a group of disorders characterized by failure of neuromuscular transmission, including pre-synaptic, synaptic, and post-synaptic disorders that are not of autoimmune origin. Clinical features include easy fatigability and muscle weakness. CMS24 inheritance is autosomal recessive. The disease may be caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Miscellaneous. Lacks the ATP-binding domain which suggests that it cannot interact with actin.
Similarity. Belongs to the TRAFAC class myosin-kinesin ATPase superfamily. Myosin family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 97 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
