UniProt data
UniProt name: SYT8_HUMAN (Q8NBV8)
Gene name: SYT8
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: Isoform 4 may play a role in the trafficking and exocytosis of secretory vesicles in non-neuronal tissues. Mediates Ca(2+)-regulation of exocytosis acrosomal reaction in sperm. May mediate Ca(2+)-regulation of exocytosis in insulin secreted cells (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type III membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, acrosome {ECO:0000250}.
Transmembrane domains:
- 49-69, 21 AA, Helical; Signal-anchor for type III membrane protein. {ECO:0000255}.
Sequence: 401 AA
