Dnajc6 - DnaJ heat shock protein family (Hsp40) member C6

Predicted to enable clathrin binding activity. Involved in synaptic vesicle uncoating. Acts upstream of or within clathrin coat disassembly and regulation of clathrin-dependent endocytosis. Located in postsynaptic density. Is expressed in genital tubercle of male; gut; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease and Parkinson's disease 19A. Orthologous to human DNAJC6 (DnaJ heat shock protein family (Hsp40) member C6).
