SYT7
Introduction
Synaptotagmin-7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SYT7 gene.[1][2]
Function
Function
Synaptotagmins, such as SYT7, are brain-specific calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins that play a role in synaptic exocytosis and neurotransmitter release. See MIM 600782.[supplied by OMIM][2]
