Template:PBB Syntaxin 3, also known as STX3, is a protein[1] which in humans is encoded by the STX3 gene.[2][3]

Function

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the syntaxin family of cellular receptors for transport vesicles which participate in exocytosis in neutrophils.[2] STX3 has an important role in the growth of neurites and serves as a direct target for omega-6 arachidonic acid.[4]
