The reference OMIM entry for this protein is 608186

Exocyst complex component 3; exoc3
Sec6, s. cerevisiae, homolog of; sec6

DESCRIPTION

SEC6 is part of a multiprotein complex involved in vesicle trafficking at neural synapses and vesicle targeting in polarized epithelial cells (Hsu et al., 1996; Grindstaff et al., 1998).

GENE FUNCTION

Hsu et al. (1996) purified rat brain Sec6, which was present in a 743-kD complex with Sec8 (608185) and 6 other proteins. The complex was broadly expressed in rat brain and displayed a plasma membrane localization in nerve terminals. The Sec6/Sec8 complex coimmunoprecipitated with syntaxin (see 186590). Hsu et al. (1996) concluded that the rat Sec6/Sec8 complex is involved in neurotransmitter release via interactions with the core vesicle docking and fusion apparatus. Grindstaff et al. (1998) found that the Sec6/Sec8 complex was a component of a cytosolic 17S complex in nonpolarized canine kidney epithelial cells. Upon initiation of calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion, about 70% of the complex was recruited to sites of cell-cell contact. Grindstaff et al. (1998) concluded that lateral membrane recruitment of the Sec6/Sec8 complex is a consequence of cell-cell adhesion and is essential for the development of epithelial cell surface polarity.

MAPPING

Gross (2011) mapped the EXOC3 gene to chromosome 5p15.33 based on an alignment of the EXOC3 sequence (GenBank GENBANK BC064569) with the genomic sequence (GRCh37). ... More on the omim web site
