Synaptotagmin-14

Function

This gene is a member of the synaptotagmin gene family and encodes a protein similar to other family members that mediate membrane trafficking in synaptic transmission. The encoded protein is a calcium-independent synaptotagmin.[5]

Clinical relevance

Mutations in this gene have been shown to cause autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia with psychomotor retardation.[6]

gollark: That's horrible.
gollark: ***NOOOOO!***
gollark: Wyvern is much more useful. It's designed to solve my problems, and also those of people with identical storage-system desires.
gollark: I would use an amulet version if it were nice and client-server.
gollark: Given that crafting OC parts by hand is horrific.
