Biological function summary
Synaptotagmin 4 modulates neurotransmitter release at synapses by acting as a calcium sensor. It does not directly trigger vesicle fusion but appears to regulate the process fine-tuning synaptic plasticity and strength. It functions as part of a complex that includes other synaptotagmins and participates in the regulation of neuronal communication and plasticity. Additionally this protein influences learning and memory processes by affecting the short-term dynamics of neurotransmitter release.
Pathways
Synaptotagmin 4 participates in the synaptic vesicle cycle where it influences the docking and priming of synaptic vesicles before fusion. It plays a role in the calcium signaling pathway essential for neurotransmitter release. Within these pathways SYT4 interacts with proteins such as SNAP-25 and syntaxin which are critical for vesicle fusion and neurotransmission. Its regulatory capacity helps maintain synaptic efficacy and contributes to the adaptability of neural networks.

General info
Function
Synaptotagmin family member which does not bind Ca(2+) (By similarity) (PubMed : 23999003). Involved in neuronal dense core vesicles (DCVs) mobility through its interaction with KIF1A. Upon increased neuronal activity, phosphorylation by MAPK8/JNK1 destabilizes the interaction with KIF1A and captures DCVs to synapses (By similarity). Plays a role in dendrite formation by melanocytes (PubMed : 23999003).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the synaptotagmin family.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylation at Ser-135 by MAPK8/JNK1 reduces interaction with KIF1A and neuronal dense core vesicles mobility.
