Description

SYPL1 (synaptophysin like 1) is a protein-coding gene that encodes pantophysin, a member of the synaptophysin family. Pantophysin is a vesicle membrane protein involved in intracellular trafficking and is expressed in various tissues, particularly in the brain and endocrine cells. The gene is located on chromosome 7q22.3 and is associated with certain neurodevelopmental and metabolic disorders.

Disease Associations

Protein Summary

Pantophysin (SYPL1) is a 29 kDa integral membrane protein with four transmembrane domains, localized to small synaptic-like vesicles and secretory vesicles. It is involved in vesicle biogenesis and trafficking, particularly in neurons and endocrine cells. The protein shares structural homology with synaptophysin and is widely expressed in non-neuronal tissues.
