Young and his team first confirmed that the proteins play several key roles in ensuring that synaptic vesicles which contain ...

Cellular communication between neurons within our brain is complex and busy, much like a USPS mailroom.To keep things running ...

Breakthrough research explains how brain proteins (VGLUT1) fill nerve cell sacs with glutamate, a key messenger. It details ...

A joint study, published in Science Advances, between researchers at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), Japan, and the University Medical Center Göttingen (UMG), Germany, has ...

Left) The different pools involved in the vesicle cycle. Vesicles dock to form a readily releasable pool. At the membrane surface, vesicles can be rapidly endocytosed by dynamin to form in addition a ...

The vesicle cycle describes the steps through which neurotransmitters (chemical signals) are released at a synapse (a junction between nerve cells), to transfer information between cells.

There is very little about membrane vesicle fusion that Yale University biochemist James Rothman doesn’t know—he codiscovered SNAREs, the proteins that orchestrate the process. But one unanswered ...

Among other findings, the authors provide evidence indicating that there are multiple reserve vesicle pools, that quickly and slowly mobilized reserves do not mix, and that vesicle fusion does not ...
