OX NCBI_TaxID=7787; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE. RX MEDLINE=88316381; PubMed=3411354; RA Maroteaux L., Campanelli J.T., Scheller R.H.; RT "Synuclein: a neuron-specific protein localized to the nucleus and RT presynaptic nerve terminal."; RL J. Neurosci. 8:2804-2815(1988). CC -!- FUNCTION: May have a role in synaptic regulation or signal CC transduction. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nuclear. CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Nervous system tissue. Found in the electric CC lobe, the brain and the spinal cord. CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: Three isoforms are detected: 17.5 kDa, 18.5 kDa and CC 20.0 kDa. In the neuronal cell soma, the 17.5 kDa species is CC predominant. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the synuclein family.
