EXOC6B Gene Summary [Human]

This gene encodes a protein which is a part of the evolutionarily conserved exocyst, a multimeric protein complex necessary for exocytosis, which in turn, is crucial for cell growth, polarity and migration. Disruption of this gene may be associated with phenotypes exhibiting multiple symptoms including intellectual disability and developmental delay (DD). [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2016]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in human EXOC6B often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
