NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
SYT9: May be involved in Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis of secretory vesicles through Ca(2+) and phospholipid binding to the C2 domain or may serve as Ca(2+) sensors in the process of vesicular trafficking and exocytosis. Belongs to the synaptotagmin family.
Protein type: Vesicle; Membrane protein, integral
Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 11p15.4
Cellular Component: synaptic vesicle membrane; secretory granule membrane; integral to membrane; cell junction
