Double C2-Like Domain-Containing Protein Beta (DOC2B) Reagents

Double C2-like domain-containing protein beta

Calcium sensor which positively regulates SNARE-dependent fusion of vesicles with membranes. Binds phospholipids in a calcium-dependent manner and may act at the priming stage of fusion by modifying membrane curvature to stimulate fusion. Involved in calcium-triggered exocytosis in chromaffin cells and calcium-dependent spontaneous release of neurotransmitter in absence of action potentials in neuronal cells. Involved both in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in pancreatic cells and insulin-dependent GLUT4 transport to the plasma membrane in adipocytes.

Cytoplasm. Cytoplasmic granule. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein.

Widely expressed with highest levels in brain and kidney. Expressed in pancreatic islet cells (at protein level).
