Alternate names for this Gene: -
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is a syntaxin family membrane receptor involved in vesicle transport. The encoded protein binds alpha-SNAP, an important regulator of transport vesicle fusion. Along with syntaxin 13, this protein plays a role in the ordered fusion of endosomes and lysosomes with the phagosome.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 6
Location in Chromosome : 6q23.2
Description of this Gene: syntaxin 7
Type of Gene: protein-coding
