synapsin-3; synapsin III (SYN3)

Function

• may be involved in regulation of neurotransmitter release & synaptogenesis
• interacts with CAPON (putative)
• regulated by Ca+2
• Ca+2 inhibits ATP binding to the C-domain

Structure

belongs to the synapsin family

Compartment

• cytoplasmic vesicle
• secretory vesicle
• synaptic vesicle membrane
• peripheral membrane protein cytoplasmic side
• peripheral membrane protein localized to cytoplasmic surface of synaptic vesicles

Expression

• neuron specific
• detected predominantly in brain

More general terms

• synapsin
