Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables SNAP receptor activity and syntaxin-1 binding activity. Involved in presynaptic dense core vesicle exocytosis and regulation of neuron projection development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including associative learning; long-term synaptic potentiation; and neurotransmitter secretion. Located in several cellular components, including presynaptic membrane; synaptic vesicle; and trans-Golgi network. Part of synaptobrevin 2-SNAP-25-syntaxin-1a-complexin I complex. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in adrenal gland; jaw; nervous system; and sensory organ. Used to study attention deficit hyperactivity disorder; obesity; schizophrenia; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Down syndrome and congenital myasthenic syndrome 18. Orthologous to human SNAP25 (synaptosome associated protein 25).
