Myosin in chromosome organisation and gene expression

The importance of myosin motor protein is well-characterised within the cytoplasm and cytoskeleton. However, mounting evidence on four nuclear myosins highlights the central role these proteins have in maintaining genomic stability and gene expression. This review focuses on each of their critical roles in chromatin structure, chromosome translocation, transcription regulation, and DNA damage repair in terms of maintaining chromosome and chromatin integrity.
