Summary

SYNJ2 (synaptojanin 2, HGNC:11504) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6q25.3, encoding Synaptojanin-2 (O15056). Inositol 5-phosphatase which may be involved in distinct membrane trafficking and signal transduction pathways.

The gene is a member of the inositol-polyphosphate 5-phosphatase family. The encoded protein interacts with the ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1, which causes translocation of the encoded protein to the plasma membrane where it inhibits clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 38 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
