The uncharacterized myosin binding protein, MyoB, has been identified as possible mechanism through which myosin XI attaches to its cargo. A previous yeast two-hybrid screen using myosin XI cargo binding domain, identified one of six MyoB proteins in the model moss, Physcomitrella patens. However, the function of MyoB in P. patens remains unknown. In this study, the family of six proteins were analyzed to identify common structural features and construct a phylogenetic tree. In addition, a triple mEGFP fusion protein was constructed to analyze protein localization.
