Gene information for SNAP29 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9342
Official gene symbolSNAP29
Full namesynaptosomal-associated protein, 29kDa
Aliases,CEDNIK,FLJ21051,SNAP-29,
Gene summaryThis gene, a member of the SNAP25 gene family, encodes a protein involved in multiple membrane trafficking steps. Two other members of this gene family, SNAP23 and SNAP25, encode proteins that bind a syntaxin protein and mediate synaptic vesicle membrane docking and fusion to the plasma membrane. The protein encoded by this gene binds tightly to multiple syntaxins and is localized to intracellular membrane structures rather than to the plasma membrane. While the protein is mostly membrane-bound, a significant fraction of it is found free in the cytoplasm. Use of multiple polyadenylation sites has been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
