Generic protein structure example

Syntaxin-16 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the STX16 gene.[1][2][3][4]

It has been associated with pseudohypoparathyroidism type Ib. Losing this gene causes loss of methylation at GNAS1 exon A/B.[3]

Interactions

STX16 has been shown to interact with VAMP4.[5]
