DESCRIPTION

Also known as SYT6_HUMAN, SYT6. 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 (By similarity). Isoform 1: Homodimer; disulfide-linked via the cysteine motif. Isoform 1: Can also form heterodimers with SYT3, SYT7, SYT9 and SYT10. Isoform 1: Interacts with STX1A, STX1B and STX2; the interaction is Ca(2+)-dependent. Isoform 2: Is not able to form homodimer and heterodimers.
