Function
Possibly involved in structural functions as organizing other membrane components or in targeting the vesicles to the plasma membrane. Involved in the regulation of short-term and long-term synaptic plasticity.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, synaptic vesicle membrane (Multi-pass membrane protein); Synapse, synaptosome
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in the brain, with expression in the hippocampus, the neuropil in the dentate gyrus, where expression is higher in the outer half of the molecular layer than in the inner half, and in the neuropil of CA4 and CA3. Expressed in the putamen (at protein level)
Disease Association: Intellectual developmental disorder, X-linked 96 (XLID96) : A disorder characterized by significantly below average general intellectual functioning associated with impairments in adaptive behavior and manifested during the developmental period. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry]
