High impact information on Syt6

To test this hypothesis, we studied the distribution, developmental expression, and localization of synaptotagmin III and its closest homolog, synaptotagmin VI [1].
Synaptotagmin VI was also found to be relatively excluded from synaptic vesicles [1].
Although the expression of most synaptotagmins predominates in neural tissue, we find that by contrast, synaptotagmin 6 is more abundant in thymus [2].
