SYT9
Description
The SYT9 (synaptotagmin 9) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 11.
Synaptotagmin-9 is a protein produced by the SYT9 gene in humans. It has been shown to interact with other proteins like SYNCRIP, TUBB, and TRPV1.
SYT9 may play a role in the release of cellular contents (exocytosis) from secretory vesicles by binding calcium ions (Ca2+) and phospholipids. This process is likely regulated by the C2 domain of the protein, which is responsible for these interactions. SYT9 may also act as a calcium sensor in the movement and fusion of vesicles.
SYT9 is also known as -.
