Mechanisms of Synaptic Vesicle Exocytosis

Lin, Richard C., Scheller, Richard H.·2000·Annual Review of Cell and Developmental Biology

Abstract

▪ Abstract Chemical synaptic transmission serves as the main form of cell to cell communication in the nervous system. Neurotransmitter release occurs through the process of regulated exocytosis, in which a synaptic vesicle releases its contents in response to an increase in calcium. The use of genetic, biochemical, structural, and functional studies has led to the identification of factors important in the synaptic vesicle life cycle. Here we focus on the prominent role of SNARE (soluble NSF attachment protein receptor) proteins during membrane fusion and the regulation of SNARE function by Rab3a, nSec1, and NSF. Many of the proteins important for transmitter release have homologs involved in intracellular vesicle transport, and all forms of vesicle trafficking share common basic principles. Finally, modifications to the synaptic exocytosis pathway are very likely to underlie certain forms of synaptic plasticity and therefore contribute to learning and memory.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
