Virus entry: molecular mechanisms and biomedical applications (2004, background): “A similar, but fourstranded, coiled-coil is involved in a number of intracellular fusion processes, which include synaptic vesicle fusion 20 .”
Multiple roles of calcium ions in the regulation of neurotransmitter release. (2008, background): “Another group of ‘‘modulators’’ are the clostridial neurotoxins, which have long been known to target the core of the release machinery—the SNARE proteins (Blasi et al., 1993; Chen and Scheller, 2001; Schiavo et al., 2000).”
The synaptic vesicle cycle. (2004, neutral): “Intracellular membrane fusion generally involves SNARE proteins that are present on both fusing membranes before fusion and that associate into tight core complexes during fusion (reviewed in Chen & Scheller 2001, Jahn et al. 2003).”
Mitofusin 1 and 2 play distinct roles in mitochondrial fusion reactions via GTPase activity (2004, background): “In the secretory and endocytic pathways, the vesicle and target membranes have different SNARE proteins, and their specific interaction across the two membranes activates the membrane fusion reaction (Chen and Scheller, 2001).”
Molecular machinery for non-vesicular trafficking of ceramide (2003, background): “The trafficking of integral membrane proteins in eukaryotic cells is mediated by transport vesicles, which load the desired set of proteins and deliver them to the correct organelle”
Characterization of the CLEAR network reveals an integrated control of cellular clearance pathways. (2011, background): “Recent work has demonstrated that STX4 defines an exocytic zone directing membrane fusion for post-synaptic plasticity, and its disruption impairs spine exocytosis at hippocampal synapses (58).”
SNAREs and traffic. (2005, background): “The C-terminal region of tomosyn, its closely-related protein KIAA1006 and amisyn contain a 60-residue region characteristic of R-SNAREs (Fig.”
Secretory granule exocytosis. (2003, background): “Although these findings continue to be cited as evidence for a postfusion role of NSF/ -SNAP (168), it is nevertheless clear that they strongly support a predocking, priming role.”
