Background
This gene encodes a member of the myosin superfamily. The protein represents an unconventional myosin; it should not be confused with the conventional skeletal muscle myosin-1 (MYH1). Unconventional myosins contain the basic domains characteristic 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 autosomal dominant deafness. Alternatively spliced variants have been found for this gene.

Function
disease:Defects in MYO1A are the cause of non-syndromic sensorineural deafness autosomal dominant type 48 (DFNA48) [MIM:607841]. DFNA48 is a form of sensorineural hearing loss. Sensorineural deafness results from damage to the neural receptors of the inner ear, the nerve pathways to the brain, or the area of the brain that receives sound information.,function:Involved in directing the movement of organelles along actin filaments .,similarity:Contains 1 myosin head-like domain.,similarity:Contains 3 IQ domains.,
