Gene ID: 8676, updated on 2-Nov-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: FHL4; HLH4; HPLH4

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the syntaxin family. Syntaxins have been implicated in the targeting and fusion of intracellular transport vesicles. This family member may regulate protein transport among late endosomes and the trans-Golgi network. Mutations in this gene have been associated with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.
