NEURONAL SYNAPTIC FUSION COMPLEX
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 9759724
Function
[SNP25_RAT] t-SNARE involved in the molecular regulation of neurotransmitter release. May play an important role in the synaptic function of specific neuronal systems. Associates with proteins involved in vesicle docking and membrane fusion. Regulates plasma membrane recycling through its interaction with CENPF. [VAMP2_RAT] Involved in the targeting and/or fusion of transport vesicles to their target membrane (By similarity). [STX1A_RAT] Potentially involved in docking of synaptic vesicles at presynaptic active zones. May play a critical role in neurotransmitter exocytosis. May mediate Ca(2+)-regulation of exocytosis acrosomal reaction in sperm.
