Identification and Characterization of the Human Ortholog of Rat STXBP1, a Protein Implicated in Vesicle Trafficking and Neurotransmitter Release
1 Mar 1998
Abstract excerpt
In a screen designed to identify genes expressed preferentially in retina, we identified a cDNA encoding the human ortholog of rat STXBP1 (n-Sec1, Munc-18-1, rbSec1), a protein implicated in vesicle trafficking and neurotransmitter release. This protein also has similarity to Drosophila Rop (65% aa identity) and Caenorhabditis elegans UNC-18 (58% aa identity). The major human cDNA encodes a protein of 594 amino...
