Myosin is one of three major classes of molecular motor proteins: myosin, dynein, and kinesin. As the most abundant of these proteins myosin plays a structural and enzymatic role in muscle contraction and intracellular motility. Myosin was first discovered in muscle in the 19th century. <ref name="Spudich">PMID: 8824453 </ref> | Myosin is one of three major classes of molecular motor proteins: myosin, dynein, and kinesin.
