CPNE6

Protein-coding gene in humans

An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox Copine-6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CPNE6 gene.[1][2]

This gene encodes a brain-specific member of the copine family, which is composed of calcium-dependent membrane-binding proteins. The gene product contains two N-terminal C2 domains, and one von Willebrand factor A domain. It may have a role in synaptic plasticity.[2]
