Background:  Myosin-XVIIIb(MYO18B) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYO18B gene. The protein encoded by this gene may regulate muscle-specific genes when in the nucleus and may influence intracellular trafficking when in the cytoplasm. The encoded protein functions as a homodimer and may interact with F actin. Mutations in this gene are associated with lung cancer. MYO18B may be involved in intracellular trafficking of the muscle cell when in the cytoplasm, whereas entering the nucleus, may be involved in the regulation of muscle specific genes. It may play a role in the control of tumor development and progression.
