EXOC3L2

Exocyst complex component 3-like 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the EXOC3L2 gene.

The EXOC3L2 protein has been shown to interact with EXOC4 involved exocytosis and more specifically in the targeting of exocytic vesicles to the cell membrane.

The exocyst complex is important for several biological processes, such as the establishment of cell polarity and regulation of cell migration. The structure and functions of the exocyst complex are conserved from yeast to higher eukaryotes.
