Summary: Enables calmodulin binding activity; phospholipid binding activity; and syntaxin-1 binding activity. Involved in secretion by cell and synaptic vesicle endocytosis. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including Golgi to plasma membrane protein transport; cellular response to insulin stimulus; and long-term synaptic potentiation. Located in several cellular components, including secretory vesicle; storage vacuole; and trans-Golgi network. Part of synaptobrevin 2-SNAP-25-syntaxin-1a complex. Is active in glutamatergic synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; integumental system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human VAMP2 (vesicle associated membrane protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
