Gene Symbol VAMP2
Gene Full Name vesicle-associated membrane protein 2 (synaptobrevin 2)
Background The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP)/synaptobrevin family. Synaptobrevins/VAMPs, syntaxins, and the 25-kD synaptosomal-associated protein SNAP25 are the main components of a protein complex involved in the docking and/or fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane. This gene is thought to participate in neurotransmitter release at a step between docking and fusion. The protein forms a stable complex with syntaxin, synaptosomal-associated protein, 25 kD, and synaptotagmin. It also forms a distinct complex with synaptophysin. It is a likely candidate gene for familial infantile myasthenia (FIMG) because of its map location and because it encodes a synaptic vesicle protein of the type that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of FIMG.

Function Involved in the targeting and/or fusion of transport vesicles to their target membrane. Modulates the gating characteristics of the delayed rectifier voltage-dependent potassium channel KCNB1. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, synaptic vesicle membrane; Single-pass type IV membrane protein. Cell junction, synapse, synaptosome. Cell membrane. Note=Neuronal synaptic vesicles. Colocalizes with PRKCZ and WDFY2 in intracellular vesicles (PubMed:17313651). [UniProt]
Calculated MW 13 kDa
PTM Phosphorylated by PRKCZ in vitro and this phosphorylation is increased in the presence of WDFY2. [UniProt]
