Biological function summary
The protein participates in cellular processes like membrane fusion and exocytosis and involves components of the SNARE complex. Munc18c supports the assembly of this complex by binding to syntaxin 4 a partner protein. By stabilizing syntaxin 4 Munc18c ensures the proper transmission of vesicles within cells impacting processes such as insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in muscle and fat cells.
Pathways
Munc18c plays an integral role in the insulin signaling pathway and is also significant in the GLUT4 trafficking pathway. In these pathways the protein associates with proteins such as synaptosome-associated protein 23 and Vesicle-associated membrane protein 2 (VAMP2). This involvement is essential for facilitating the movement of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) to the cell surface an important step in glucose homeostasis.

General info
Function
Together with STX4 and VAMP2, may play a role in insulin-dependent movement of GLUT4 and in docking/fusion of intracellular GLUT4-containing vesicles with the cell surface in adipocytes.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the STXBP/unc-18/SEC1 family.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylated by PKC in platelets in response to thrombin stimulation; phosphorylation inhibits binding to STX4.
