Assembly of the soluble N-ethylmaleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex is an essential step for neurotransmitter release in synapses. The presynaptic plasma membrane ...
A neuron forms thousands of presynaptic nerve terminals on its axons, far removed from the cell body. The protein CSPα resides in presynaptic terminals, where it forms a chaperone complex with Hsc70 ...
KAIST researchers discovered that NSF unravels a single SNARE complex using one round ATP turnover by tearing the complex with a single burst, contradicting a previous theory that it unwinds in a ...
To release neurotransmitters, nerve terminals must repeatedly break down and rebuild specialized protein complexes, and the fidelity of this process may rely on α-synuclein, a protein that misfolds in ...
SNARE proteins are a large protein superfamily consisting of more than 60 members in yeast and mammals. The primary role of these proteins is to mediate fusion of vesicles with their target membrane ...
For this article, Eugene Russo interviewed Axel T. Brunger, a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator and professor of molecular and cellular physiology at Stanford University. Data from the Web ...
