MYL3
Myosin essential light chain (ELC), ventricular/cardiac isoform is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''MYL3'' gene.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=4634 )〕 This cardiac ventricular/slow skeletal ELC isoform is distinct from that expressed in fast skeletal muscle (MYL1) and cardiac atrial muscle (MYL4). Ventricular ELC is part of the myosin molecule and is important in modulating cardiac muscle contraction.
==Structure==
Cardiac, ventricular ELC is 21.9 kDa and composed of 195 amino acids ((See human MYL3 sequences features here )). Cardiac ELC and the second light chain, regulatory light chain (RLC, MYL2), are non-covalently bound to IQXXXRGXXXR motifs in the 9 nm S1-S2 lever arm of the myosin head, both alpha (MYH6) and beta (MYH7) isoforms. Both light chains are members of the EF-hand superfamily of proteins, which possess helix-loop-helix motifs in two globular domains connected by an alpha-helical linker. Though EF hand motifs are specialized to bind divalent ions such as calcium, cardiac ELC does not bind calcium at physiological levels. The N-terminal region of cardiac ELC is functionlly unique in that it is positively charged, being rich in Lysine residues (amino acids 4-14), with subsequent unique structure governed by Proline-Alanine repeats (amino acids 15-36).
