| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in the brain, with expression in the hippocampus, the neuropil in the dentate gyrus, where expression is higher in the outer half of the molecular layer than in the inner half, and in the neuropil of CA4 and CA3. Expressed in the putamen (at protein level). |
| Post Translational Modifications | Ubiquitinated.mediated by SIAH1 or SIAH2 and leading to its subsequent proteasomal degradation. Phosphorylated by SRC. |
| Function | Possibly involved in structural functions as organizing other membrane components or in targeting the vesicles to the plasma membrane. Involved in the regulation of short-term and long-term synaptic plasticity. |
