Syt17 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable SNARE binding activity; calcium ion sensor activity; and calcium-dependent phospholipid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of dendrite extension; regulation of vesicle-mediated transport; and vesicle-mediated transport. Located in trans-Golgi network. Is expressed in adrenal gland; male reproductive gland or organ; metanephros; and nervous system. Orthologous to human SYT17 (synaptotagmin 17). [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 Syt17 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
- leucine zipper domain
- protein binding
- Protein kinase C conserved region 2 (CalB)
- C2 domain
