About SYTL5

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 206 orthologues and 31 paralogues. Broad expression in stomach (RPKM 4.3), placenta (RPKM 2.5) and 17 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the synaptotagmin-like (Slp) protein family, which contains a unique homology domain at the N-terminus, referred to as the Slp homology domain (SHD). The SHD functions as a binding site for Rab27A, which plays a role in protein transport. Expression of this gene is restricted to placenta and liver, suggesting that it might be involved in Rab27A-dependent membrane trafficking in specific tissues. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
