Double C2-like domain-containing protein alpha is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DOC2A gene.
Gene data
DOC2A- Name
- double C2 domain alpha
- Type
- protein-coding
- Aliases
- Doc2
There are at least two protein isoforms of the Double C2 protein, namely alpha (DOC2A) and beta (DOC2B), which contain two C2-like domains. DOC2A and DOC2B are encoded by different genes; these genes are at times confused with the unrelated DAB2 gene which was initially named DOC-2. DOC2A is mainly expressed in brain and is suggested to be involved in Ca(2+)-dependent neurotransmitter release. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
