Summary: Predicted to enable transmembrane transporter binding activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of presynaptic active zone. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including regulated exocytosis; regulation of synapse organization; and regulation of synaptic vesicle exocytosis. Predicted to be located in presynaptic active zone. Predicted to be active in several cellular components, including postsynaptic cytosol; presynaptic active zone cytoplasmic component; and presynaptic membrane.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
