Preparation and Storage

Background: Syntaxin 8

Syntaxin 8 (STX8) is a 28 kDa member of the syntaxin family of proteins. It is ubiquitously expressed, embedded in Golgi, endosomal and lysosomal membranes, and serves as a component of the SNARE complex. STX8 is involved in endosomal homotypic fusion events as well as protein trafficking. Human STX8 is a type IV single-pass transmembrane protein (very short exoplasmic C-terminus) that is 236 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains a coiled-coil region (aa 42‑65), a t-SNARE domain (aa 152‑207) that is likely involved in protein-protein interactions, and a short, four amino acid C-terminal luminal sequence. Over aa 1‑215, human STX8 shares 92% aa identity with mouse STX8.
