About EXOC3L2

The protein encoded by this gene is upregulated by vascular endothelial growth factor A and interacts with exocyst complex component 4. The encoded protein may be part of an exocyst complex that plays a role in cell membrane dynamics. Mutations in this gene may be associated with Alzheimer's disease. [provided by RefSeq, May 2017]
