VAMP1

protein-coding

vesicle associated membrane protein 1, the group of Vesicle associated membrane proteins

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]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_014231.5. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

FUNCTION: Involved in the targeting and/or fusion of transport vesicles to their target membrane.;
Disease
DISEASE: Spastic ataxia 1, autosomal dominant (SPAX1) [MIM:108600]: An autosomal dominant form of spastic ataxia, a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by lower-limb spasticity and generalized ataxia with dysarthria, impaired ocular movements, and gait disturbance. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22958904}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. A mutation affecting a critical donor site for the splicing of VAMP1 isoforms leads to the loss of neuron-specific isoform 1 and subsequently results in haploinsufficiency (PubMed:22958904). Therefore, there would be less neurotransmitter exocytosis in specific regions of the brain, causing the symptoms of SPAX1. {ECO:0000303|PubMed:22958904}.;
