Abstract excerpt
The presynaptic terminal has a complex molecular organization where numerous proteins are involved in various processes, including vesicle trafficking and neurotransmitter release. Calcium ions play a central role in presynaptic function by triggering neurotransmitter release and synaptic vesicle recycling. Here, we investigated the role of two calcium binding proteins, MCTP-1 and ESYT-2, in the synaptic vesicle...
