Napb - N-ethylmaleimide sensitive fusion protein attachment protein beta

Enables syntaxin binding activity. Involved in regulation of synaptic vesicle priming. Acts upstream of or within SNARE complex disassembly and glutamatergic synaptic transmission. Located in glutamatergic synapse. Part of synaptobrevin 2-SNAP-25-syntaxin-1a complex. Is expressed in central nervous system; liver; peripheral nervous system ganglion; and retina nuclear layer. Orthologous to human NAPB (NSF attachment protein beta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
