Syntaxin 2, also known as epimorphin, is a 35 kDa type II integral membrane that belongs to the t SNARE family, a group of proteins involved in protein transport. Syntaxin 2 was first identified as a factor that promotes branching morphogenesis in mammary epithelial cells. Studies using pancreatic exocrine acinar cells, in which the exocytic pathways are well defined, show primary localization of syntaxin 2 to the apical plasma membrane. Homologs of syntaxin 2 have been identified in various eukaryotes ranging from yeast to human. Neuronal syntaxin is a component of a 20S complex implicated in vesicle docking and fusion, which involves its interaction with syntaxin through a ATP dependent reaction modulated by synaptotagmin, SNAP 25, alpha SNAP, and NSF.
