Facts about Unconventional myosin-Ie.
Their highly divergent tails bind to membranous compartments, which are then moved relative to actin filaments. Binds to membranes containing anionic phospholipids through its tail domain.

Expressed in the immune system. In the kidney, predominantly expressed in the glomerulus, including podocytes.
Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Cytoplasmic vesicle, clathrin-coated vesicle. Cell junction. Colocalizes with F-actin (By similarity). In cultured podocytes, it localizes close to and is associated with the cytoplasmic membrane, with enrichment at the lamellipodia tips. Colocalizes with cytoplasmic vesicles, including endocytic clathrin-coated vesicles. Colocalizes with dynamin at cytoplasmic vesicles.
