Description
Neuronal signal transmission and neurotransmitter release from the presynaptic nerve terminal is mediated by the synaptic vesicle cycle. Syntaxin plays a central role during vesicle docking and fusion through interactions with many vesicle components. During docking, vSNAREs (VAMP/synaptobrevin, synaptotagmin) on the synaptic vesicle and tSNAREs (SNAP-25, syntaxin) on the plasma membrane interact to form a 7S complex, which is essential to docking and fusion. Syntaxin associates with munc18/n-sec1 prior to and/or during the
formation of the 7S complex. This interaction may inhibit syntaxin binding proteins (VAMP, SNAP-25) that facilitate vesicle docking or fusion. Tomosyn, a syntaxin binding protein, displaces munc18 from syntaxin-1 and forms a novel 10S complex with syntaxin-1, SNAP-25 and synaptogamin. There are two splice variants of tomosyn designated b-tomosyn and s-tomosyn, while the original is referred to as m-tomosyn. Although b-tomosyn is ubiquitously expressed, s-tomosyn and m-tomosyn are expressed primarily in brain.
