Stx5a Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable SNAP receptor activity and SNARE binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including Golgi disassembly; Golgi vesicle transport; and regulation of Golgi organization. Predicted to act upstream of or within vesicle-mediated transport. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus and vesicle. Predicted to be part of SNARE complex. Predicted to be active in Golgi membrane. Is expressed in mesenchyme of metanephros and metanephros epithelium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital disorder of glycosylation type II. Orthologous to human STX5 (syntaxin 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 mouse Stx5a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
