这个基因编码的蛋白质是合成营养素家族的一员。同营养素是一种胞质外周膜蛋白，通常包含2个褶纹蛋白同源（ph）结构域、一个将第一个ph结构域平分的pdz结构域和一个介导肌营养不良蛋白结合的c末端结构域。该家族成员在介导γ-烯醇化酶向质膜的转运和增强其神经营养活性方面发挥作用。该基因突变与特发性脊柱侧凸有关另外，已经发现该基因的剪接转录变体。[由RefSeq提供，2016年3月]
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the syntrophin family. Syntrophins are cytoplasmic peripheral membrane proteins that typically contain 2 pleckstrin homology (PH) domains, a PDZ domain that bisects the first PH domain, and a C-terminal domain that mediates dystrophin binding. This family member plays a role in mediating gamma-enolase trafficking to the plasma membrane and in enhancing its neurotrophic activity. Mutations in this gene are associated with idiopathic scoliosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]
