Entrez gene ID8675
Official gene symbolSTX16
Full namesyntaxin 16
Aliases,MGC90328,SYN16,hsyn16,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein that is a member of the syntaxin or t-SNARE (target-SNAP receptor) family. These proteins are found on cell membranes and serve as the targets for V-SNARES (vesicle-SNAP receptors) permitting specific synaptic vesicle docking and fusion. A microdeletion in the region of chromosome 20 where this gene is located has been associated with pseudohypoparathyroidism type Ib. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
