Comment typeDescription
CofactorName=Ca(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29108; Evidence= ; Note=Binds 3 Ca(2+) ions per subunit. The ions are bound to the C2 domains. ;
DomainThe first C2 domain mediates Ca(2+)-dependent phospholipid binding.
DomainThe second C2 domain mediates interaction with Stonin 2
FunctionMay have a regulatory role in the membrane interactions during trafficking of synaptic vesicles at the active zone of the synapse. It binds acidic phospholipids with a specificity that requires the presence of both an acidic head group and a diacyl backbone.
