Description

SCAMP2 (Secretory Carrier Membrane Protein 2) encodes a member of the secretory carrier membrane protein family. The protein is involved in vesicular trafficking, particularly in the recycling of synaptic vesicles and membrane transport between the Golgi apparatus and the plasma membrane. It is widely expressed in various tissues and plays a role in exocytosis and endocytosis.

Protein Summary

SCAMP2 is a 338-amino acid protein with four transmembrane domains, localized to secretory vesicles and the plasma membrane. It functions as a carrier in the recycling of synaptic vesicles and is involved in the regulation of exocytosis. The protein interacts with other vesicular trafficking components and is essential for normal neurotransmitter release.
