Abstract excerpt
The SNARE complex plays a vital role in vesicle fusion arising during neuronal exocytosis. Key components in the regulation of SNARE complex formation, and ultimately fusion, are the transmembrane and linker regions of the vesicle-associated protein, synaptobrevin. However, the membrane-embedded structure of synaptobrevin in its prefusion state, which determines its interaction with other SNARE proteins during...
