Stxbp5 Gene Summary [Rat]
Enables syntaxin-1 binding activity. Involved in synaptic vesicle cycle. Is active in several cellular components, including Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; presynaptic cytosol; and synaptic vesicle. Is extrinsic component of presynaptic membrane. Orthologous to human STXBP5 (syntaxin binding protein 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 rat Stxbp5 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
