Anti-SYNJ2

The gene is a member of the inositol-polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family. The encoded protein interacts with the ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1, which causes translocation of the encoded protein to the plasma membrane where it inhibits clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

May mediate the inhibitory effect of Rac1 on endocytosis. [The UniProt Consortium] Recommended dilutions: WB 1:500-2000. Cellular localization: Cytoplasm . Cell membrane . Membrane raft . Cell junction, synapse, presynapse . Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton . Localizes at presynapse terminals in brain and at bundles of microtubules surrounding the nucleus in the elongating spermatids corresponding to the manchette (By similarity). Translocates from the cytoplasm to membrane ruffles in a RAC1-dependent manner (PubMed:11084340). .
