Rabbit anti-Human SYT6 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q5T7P8

Target Species

Human

Target Name

SYT6

Target Full Name

Synaptotagmin-6

Target Function

May be involved in Ca(2+)-dependent exocytosis of secretory vesicles through Ca(2+) and phospholipid binding to the C2 domain or may serve as Ca(2+) sensors in the process of vesicular trafficking and exocytosis. May mediate Ca(2+)-regulation of exocytosis in acrosomal reaction in sperm.

Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, synaptic vesicle membrane; Single-pass membrane protein.; [Isoform 1]: Membrane; Single-pass membrane protein.; [Isoform 2]: Cytoplasm, cytosol. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein.

Target Protein Families

Synaptotagmin family

Target Synonyms

Synaptotagmin 6; Synaptotagmin VI; Synaptotagmin-6; Synaptotagmin6; SynaptotagminVI; Syt 6; Syt VI; SYT6; SYT6_HUMAN; SytVI

Target Background

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the synaptotagmin family. Synaptotagmins share a common domain structure that includes a transmembrane domain and a cytoplasmic region composed of 2 C2 domains, and are involved in calcium-dependent exocytosis of synaptic vesicles. This protein has been shown to be a key component of the secretory machinery involved in acrosomal exocytosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.
