STXBP1 syntaxin binding protein 1

Gene ID: 6812, updated on 14-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: P67; DEE4; NSEC1; UNC18; N-Sec1; RBSEC1; unc-18A; unc18-1; MUNC18-1

Summary

This gene encodes a syntaxin-binding protein. The encoded protein appears to play a role in release of neurotransmitters via regulation of syntaxin, a transmembrane attachment protein receptor. Mutations in this gene have been associated with infantile epileptic encephalopathy-4. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]
