Background
There are at least two protein isoforms of the Double C2 protein, namely alpha (DOC2A) and beta (DOC2B), which contain two C2-like domains. DOC2A and DOC2B are encoded by different genes; these genes are at times confused with the unrelated DAB2 gene which was initially named DOC-2. DOC2A is mainly expressed in brain and is suggested to be involved in Ca(2+)-dependent neurotransmitter release. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Function
domain:C2 domain 1 is involved in binding calcium and phospholipids.,function:May be involved in calcium dependent neurotransmitter release through the interaction with UNC13A. May be involved in dynein-dependent intracellular vesicle transport. In vitro, binds calcium and phospholipids.,similarity:Contains 2 C2 domains.,subcellular location:Colocalizes to synaptic vesicles.,subunit:Interacts through its N-terminus with UNC13A. Interacts with cytoplasmic dynein light chain TCTEL1/TCTEX1.,tissue specificity:Predominantly expressed in brain. Also expressed in testis.,
