  • Subunit: May be a centrosome-associated protein
  • Tissue specificity: Highly expressed in brain, particularly in the substantia nigra. Also expressed in the corpus callosum, heart, skeletal muscle, ovary, testis, colon and spleen. Weak expression in pancreas, kidney and lung [IMAGE] Custom PCR Arrays for SNCG Primer Product
  • Function:
    UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Summary: SYUG_HUMAN, O76070 Function: Plays a role in neurofilament network integrity. May be involved in modulating axonal architecture during development and in the adult. In vitro, increases the susceptibility of neurofilament-H to calcium-dependent proteases (By similarity). May also function in modulating the keratin network in skin. Activates the MAPK and Elk-1 signal transduction pathway (By similarity)
  • Similarity:
    Belongs to the synuclein family [IMAGE]
