Mouse Anti-Synaptophysin (SYP, SYPH, SypI, Major Synaptic Vesicle Protein P38, Syn p38)
Synaptophysin (SYP) is an integral membrane protein of small synaptic vesicles in brain and endocrine cells. Ozcelik et al. (1990) concluded that the gene has 7 exons distributed over about 20kb. SYP mapped the SYP locus to Xp11.23-p11.22. Regionalization of the gene on the X chromosome was also done with hamster/human hybrid cells in which various portions of the human X chromosome were present.
