geneOn this page
Summary
SYT2 (synaptotagmin 2, HGNC:11510) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1q32.1, encoding Synaptotagmin-2 (Q8N9I0). Exhibits calcium-dependent phospholipid and inositol polyphosphate binding properties.
This gene encodes a synaptic vesicle membrane protein. The encoded protein is thought to function as a calcium sensor in vesicular trafficking and exocytosis. Mutations in this gene are associated with myasthenic syndrome, presynaptic, congenital, with or without motor neuropathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Function. Exhibits calcium-dependent phospholipid and inositol polyphosphate binding properties. May have a regulatory role in the membrane interactions during trafficking of synaptic vesicles at the active zone of the synapse. Plays a role in dendrite formation by melanocytes.
Subunit / interactions. Homotetramer. Heterodimer; heterodimerizes with SYT1 in presence of calcium. Interacts with STON2. Interacts with SCAMP5. Interacts with PRRT2.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasmic vesicle. Secretory vesicle. Synaptic vesicle membrane. Chromaffin granule membrane. Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Expressed at the neuromuscular junction. Expressed in melanocytes.
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylation at Thr-199 by WNK1, changes the calcium requirement for SYT2-binding to phospholipid membranes.
Disease relevance. Myasthenic syndrome, congenital, 7A, presynaptic, and distal motor neuropathy, autosomal dominant (CMS7A) [MIM:616040] A form of congenital myasthenic syndrome, a group of disorders characterized by failure of neuromuscular transmission, including pre-synaptic, synaptic, and post-synaptic disorders that are not of autoimmune origin. Clinical features are easy fatigability and muscle weakness. CMS7A is an autosomal dominant, presynaptic disorder resembling Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome. Affected individuals have a variable degree of proximal and distal limb weakness, muscle fatigue that improves with rest, mild gait difficulties, and reduced or absent deep tendon reflexes. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Myasthenic syndrome, congenital, 7B, presynaptic, autosomal recessive (CMS7B) [MIM:619461] An autosomal recessive form of congenital myasthenic syndrome, a group of disorders characterized by failure of neuromuscular transmission, including pre-synaptic, synaptic, and post-synaptic disorders that are not of autoimmune origin. Clinical features are easy fatigability and muscle weakness. CMS7B is characterized by defects at the pre-synaptic neuromuscular junction and severe generalized muscle weakness apparent from birth. Decreased fetal movements may be apparent in utero. Affected infants have generalized hypotonia, head lag, and facial muscle weakness with ptosis. Some patients may have respiratory involvement. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Cofactor. Binds 3 Ca(2+) ions per subunit. The ions are bound to the C2 domains.
Domain organisation. The first C2 domain mediates Ca(2+)-dependent phospholipid binding. The second C2 domain mediates interaction with Stonin 2. The second C2 domain mediates phospholipid and inositol polyphosphate binding in a calcium-independent manner.
Similarity. Belongs to the synaptotagmin family.
