title: Isolation and sequence analysis of the human syntaxin-encoding gene.
abstract: STX-related genes (encoding syntaxin) have been identified in rat and yeast; however, no human STX gene has been isolated thus far. Here, we describe the nucleotide sequence of the first human STX gene isolated from a placental library. It encodes a 297-amino-acid (aa) protein and is 89% identical to the aa sequence of rat STX 4a.
