Background
This gene encodes a member of the synaptotagmin like protein family. Members of this family are characterized by an N-terminal Rab27 binding domain and C-terminal tandem C2 domains. The encoded protein binds specific small Rab GTPases and is involved in intracellular membrane trafficking. This protein binds Rab27 and may be involved in inhibiting dense core vesicle exocytosis. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010],
Function
function:Modulates exocytosis of dense-core granules and secretion of hormones in the pancreas and the pituitary. Interacts with vesicles containing negatively charged phospholipids in a Ca(2+)-independent manner.,similarity:Contains 1 FYVE-type zinc finger.,similarity:Contains 1 RabBD (Rab-binding) domain.,similarity:Contains 2 C2 domains.,subcellular location:Detected close to the plasma membrane and on secretory granules. In pancreas, interacts with insulin-containing vesicles.,subunit:Part of a ternary complex containing STX1A and RAB27A. Can bind both dominant negative and dominant active mutants of RAB27A. Binds STXBP1, RAB3A, RAB8A and RAB27B.,
