Myosin light chain 2 (MLC2), also known as myosin regulatory light chain (MRLC), RLC, or LC20, has many isoforms with varying tissue distribution. Smooth muscle MLC2 is phosphorylated at Thr18 and Ser19 by myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) in a Ca \/calmodulin-dependent manner (1). These phosphorylation events are correlated with myosin ATPase activity and smooth muscle contraction (2). Striated muscle contraction is regulated by the troponin-tropomyosin complex in thin actin filaments and by binding of Ca to troponin C (3). Two types of myosin light chain are expressed in the heart, with myosin light chain 2v (MYL2, MLC-2v) expression restricted to the ventricles and myosin light chain 2a (MYL7, MLC-2a) found specific to the atria. Mutations in the corresponding gene are found in patients diagnosed with a form of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy characterized by thickening of the mid-left ventricle.\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nGm32672; Mlc; MLC-; MLC-2; MLC-2s\/v; MLC-2v; Mlc2v; MLRV; MRLC2V; Myl; Myl2; Mylpc; Myosin light chain 2, slow skeletal\/ventricular muscle isoform; myosin light chain 2v; myosin light chain, phosphorylatable, cardiac ventricles; Myosin regulatory light chain 2, ventricular\/cardiac muscle isoform; myosin, light polypeptide 2, regulatory, cardiac, slow; OTTMUSP00000029571; OTTMUSP00000029619; ventricular myosin regulatory light chain\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 20\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46801046274217,"sku":"12975T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-12975t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
