Summary | This gene encodes a member of the copine family of highly conserved, calcium-dependent phospholipid binding proteins. The encoded protein has two characteristic C2 domains and a VWFA domain and may play a role in membrane trafficking. A related pseudogene is found on chromosome 8. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. |
