F20G4.3 Details Help
Description  nmy-2 encodes a maternally expressed nonmuscle myosin II required for polarized cytoplasmic flow, polarized distribution of the PAR proteins, cytokinesis, and for proper anterior-posterior polarity in early embryos; NMY-2 functions with PAR-5 in the onset of the establishment phase of polarization in the C. elegans zygote along the anterior-posterior axis, and nmy-2 is partially redundant with nmy-1 with respect to embryonic elongation; localization of NMY-2 is dynamic in oocytes and embryos.
Homology Group (KOG)  Myosin class II heavy chain
