DomainC2 domain 1 is involved in binding calcium and phospholipids. Calcium binds with low affinity but with high specificity and induces a large conformational change.
FunctionMay act as a scaffolding protein involved in the organization of synaptic active zones and in synaptic vesicle trafficking.
Sequence CautionSequence=AAB97937.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence= ; Sequence=AAD21789.2; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; Evidence= ;
SimilarityContains 1 PDZ (DHR) domain.
SimilarityContains 2 C2 domains. {ECO
Subcellular LocationCell junction, synapse . Note=Concentrated at the presynaptic side of synaptic junctions.
SubunitInteracts with RABAC1/PRA1, RIMS2 and profilin.
