Summary
SYTL4 (synaptotagmin like 4, HGNC:15588) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome Xq22.1, encoding Synaptotagmin-like protein 4 (Q96C24). Modulates exocytosis of dense-core granules and secretion of hormones in the pancreas and the pituitary.
This gene encodes a member of the synaptotagmin like protein family. Members of this family are characterized by an N-terminal Rab27 binding domain and C-terminal tandem C2 domains. The encoded protein binds specific small Rab GTPases and is involved in intracellular membrane trafficking. This protein binds Rab27 and may be involved in inhibiting dense core vesicle exocytosis. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 12)
- Synaptotagmin-like protein 4 (Slp4)/granuphilin-a contains an N-terminal Slp homology domain (SHD) (PMID: 11327731). The SHD of Slp4 specifically and directly binds the GTP-bound form of Rab3A, Rab8, and Rab27A. (PMID:11773082)
- in insulin-producing cells adequate levels of mir-9 are mandatory for maintaining appropriate Granuphilin levels and optimal secretory capacity (PMID:16831872)
- Slp4 and Rab8 are expressed and interact in human platelets, and might be involved in dense granule release. (PMID:23140275)
- the mechanisms of granuphilin plasma membrane targeting and release (PMID:24184645)
- Recruitment of STXBP1 by the Rab27A effector SYTL4 promotes Weibel-Palade body exocytosis. (PMID:24700782)
- Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate binds to the concave surface of granuphilin-C2A domain. The key residues involved in the binding were validated by mutation analysis. (PMID:25595293)
- GLUT5 required an interaction cascade of Rab11, Myo5B, Slp4a, Munc18-2, and Vamp7 with Stx3. (PMID:26553929)
- Granuphilin makes granules immobile and fusion-reluctant beneath the plasma membrane. Those granuphilin-positive, docked granules release a portion of granuphilin upon fusion, and fuse at a frequency and time course similar to those of granuphilin-negative undocked granules. Granuphilin forms a 180-nm cluster at the site of each docked granule, along with granuphilin-interacting Rab27a and Munc18-1 clusters. (PMID:27032672)
- Determined the solution structure of human synaptotagmin-like protein 4 (Slp4). Through modification of cysteine residues, found Slp4 binding of two zinc atoms is required for correct folding. (PMID:28906046)
- LMP1 upregulates SDC2 and SYTL4. (PMID:31930596)
- SYTL4 downregulates microtubule stability and confers paclitaxel resistance in triple-negative breast cancer. (PMID:33042263)

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 50 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.
