“…Analysis of expression of mouse tissue cDNA detected an mRNA transcript of myosins 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f, 1h, 3a, 3b, 5a, 6, 7a, 7b, 10, 15a, 16 and 18a [11][12][13][14]. Of these, at least 6 myosins are essential for hearing, as mutations in the genes MYO1A, MYO2A, MYO2B, MYO6, MYO7A and MYO15A cause deafness in humans and mice [14,15,16].…”
