DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2016.11.2153
Abstract: Fast and temporally controlled release is imperative for neurotransmitter release via evoked synaptic vesicle exocytosis. This process is driven by the interaction between vesicle v-SNAREs with target t-SNAREs on the plasma membrane. The initial, nanometer-sized… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2016.11.466
Abstract: Fusion of vesicular and plasma membranes is mediated by SNARE proteins. In a vesicular fusion event, the t- and v-SNAREs assemble into a four-helix bundle pulling the two membranes together to cause fusion. A decrease… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2017.04.032
Abstract: In vitro single-vesicle fusion assays are important tools to analyze the details of SNARE-mediated fusion processes. In this study, we employed planar pore-spanning membranes (PSMs) prepared on porous silicon substrates with large pore diameters of 5… read more here.

DOI: 10.1104/pp.19.01145
Abstract: Vesicle transport is one of those molecular processes that is easy to take for granted. From cell expansion and polarized growth to protein regulation and signaling, vesicle trafficking plays its unsung part. We tend to… read more here.

SNARE-Mediated Exocytosis in Neuronal Development
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Frontiers in Molecular Neuroscience"
DOI: 10.3389/fnmol.2020.00133
Abstract: The formation of the nervous system involves establishing complex networks of synaptic connections between proper partners. This developmental undertaking requires the rapid expansion of the plasma membrane surface area as neurons grow and polarize, extending… read more here.
