NCIt definition : Human STX1B wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 16p11.2 and is approximately
21 kb in length. This allele, which encodes syntaxin-1B protein, plays a role in synaptic
transmission and vesicle trafficking. Mutations in the gene are associated with generalized
epilepsy with febrile seizures plus 9.;
NCIt note : Alternative splicing of the STX1B gene results in two transcript variants encoding
two non-identical protein isoforms.;
