Cancer tissues were mainly negative except prostate, liver, lung and renal cancers which predominantly displayed weak to moderate cytoplasmic staining. Occasional cases of papillary carcinomas of thyroid and hepatocellular carcinomas showed strong cytoplasmic staining. Prostate and renal cancers were moderately stained.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
VAMP1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
SYB1, VAMP-1
Description
Vesicle-associated membrane protein 1 (synaptobrevin 1) (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
Synapotobrevins, syntaxins, and the synaptosomal-associated protein SNAP25 are the main components of a protein complex involved in the docking and/or fusion of synaptic vesicles with the presynaptic membrane. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP)/synaptobrevin family. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal dominant spastic ataxia 1. Multiple alternative splice variants have been described, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been defined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]
