Synonyms | KIAA1597, SGA72M, SLP2, SLP2A |
Function | Isoform 1 acts as a RAB27A effector protein and plays a role in cytotoxic granule exocytosis in lymphocytes. It is required for cytotoxic granule docking at the immunologic synapse. Isoform 4 binds phosphatidylserine (PS) and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) and promotes the recruitment of glucagon-containing granules to the cell membrane in pancreatic alpha cells. Binding to PS is inhibited by Ca(2+) while binding to PIP2 is Ca(2+) insensitive. |
Cellular Location | [Isoform 1]: Cytoplasm. Cell membrane Note=Recruited on vesicular structures in cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) by RAB27A. |
Tissue Location | Isoform 1 is expressed in hematopoietic lineages with a strong expression in CD4 and CD8 T-lymphocytes. It is also widely expressed in nonhematopoietic tissues. Isoform 5 is expressed only in nonhematopoietic tissues. Isoform 4 is expressed in pancreatic alpha cells. |

Background
SYTL2 is a synaptotagmin-like protein (SLP) that belongs to a C2 domain-containing protein family. The SLP homology domain (SHD) of this protein has been shown to specifically bind the GTP-bound form of Ras-related protein Rab-27A (RAB27A). This protein plays a role in RAB27A-dependent vesicle trafficking and controls melanosome distribution in the cell periphery.
