SYT5 (Synaptotagmin 5) is a Protein Coding gene. Among its related pathways are Metabolism and Integration of energy metabolism. Synaptotagmins, such as SYT5, are a family of type III membrane proteins characterized by cytoplasmic repeats related to protein kinase C regulatory (C2) domains, which are thought to bind calcium. Synaptotagmins may act both as negative regulators of vesicle fusion, allowing fusion in the presence of calcium, and as calcium receptors or sensor molecules.
