MYOCARDIN

This gene encodes a nuclear protein, which is expressed in heart, aorta, and in smooth muscle cell-containing tissues. It functions as a transcriptional co-activator of serum response factor and modulates expression of cardiac and smooth muscle-specific SRF-target genes, and thus may play a crucial role in cardiogenesis and differentiation of the smooth muscle cell lineage. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Myocardin; MYCD

Smooth muscle cells (SM) and cardiac muscle cells-specific transcriptional factor which uses the canonical single or multiple CArG boxes DNA sequence. Acts as a cofactor of serum response factor (SRF) with the potential to modulate SRF-target genes. Plays a crucial role in cardiogenesis, urinary bladder development, and differentiation of the smooth muscle cell lineage (myogenesis) (By similarity).

Nucleus

Megabladder, congenital (MGBL):
An autosomal dominant congenital anomaly characterized by a massively dilated urinary bladder with disrupted smooth muscle in the bladder wall. MGBL is a sex-limited trait with 95% male predominance, and incomplete penetrance. Affected males frequently die in utero.

Phosphorylation regulates negatively the intrinsic myocardin transcriptional activity.
