Gene: RIMS1
Alternate names for this Gene: CORD7|RAB3IP2|RIM|RIM1
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a RAS gene superfamily member that regulates synaptic vesicle exocytosis. This gene also plays a role in the regulation of voltage-gated calcium channels during neurotransmitter and insulin release. Mutations have suggested a role cognition and have been identified as the cause of cone-rod dystrophy type 7. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 6
Location in Chromosome : 6q13
Description of this Gene: regulating synaptic membrane exocytosis 1
Type of Gene: protein-coding
