EXOC7 is a component of the exocyst, which is an evolutionarily conserved octameric protein complex essential for exocytosis. The exocyst targets secretory vesicles at specific domains of the plasma membrane for cell surface expansion and protein secretion (Zuo et al., 2006 [PubMed 17086175]).[supplied by OMIM

EXOC7 (NP_001013861, 586 a.a. ~ 684 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.
EXOC7 (Exocyst complex component 7) is mainly involved in the exocytosis, a membrane trafficking process of intracellular protein elements such as hormones and neurotransmitters, membrane proteins and lipids to specific domains of the plasma membrane. Exocytosis plays a vital role in the cellular growth, development and cell polarity establishment. During exocytosis, it directly connects with the plasma membrane through its direct interaction with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P(2)). It has also been reported that the interaction between EXOC7 and PI(4,5)P(2) is highly essential for the docking and fusion of post-Golgi secretory vesicles.

The exocyst is an evolutionarily conserved octameric protein complex that tethers post-Golgi secretory vesicles at the plasma membrane for exocytosis. To elucidate the mechanism of vesicle tethering, it is important to understand how the exocyst physically associates with the plasma

Exocytosis is an essential membrane traffic event mediating the secretion of intracellular protein contents such as hormones and neurotransmitters as well as the incorporation of membrane proteins and lipids to specific domains of the plasma membrane. As a fundamental cell
