Gene information for SYTL5 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID94122
Official gene symbolSYTL5
Full namesynaptotagmin-like 5
Aliases,slp5,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene belongs to the synaptotagmin-like (Slp) protein family, which contains a unique homology domain at the N-terminus, referred to as the Slp homology domain (SHD). The SHD functions as a binding site for Rab27A, which plays a role in protein transport. Expression of this gene is restricted to placenta and liver, suggesting that it might be involved in Rab27A-dependent membrane trafficking in specific tissues. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
