Protein Quantification at the Single Vesicle Level Reveals That a Subset of Synaptic Vesicle Proteins Are Trafficked with High Precision
Open accessAbstract
Protein sorting represents a potential point of regulation in neurotransmission because it dictates the protein composition of synaptic vesicles, the organelle that mediates transmitter release. Although the average number of most vesicle proteins has been estimated using bulk biochemical approaches (Takamori et al., 2006), no information exists on the intervesicle variability of protein number, and thus on the precision with which proteins are sorted to vesicles. To address this, we adapted a single molecule quantification approach (Mutch et al., 2007) and used it to quantify both the average number and variance of seven integral membrane proteins in brain synaptic vesicles. We report that four vesicle proteins, SV2, the proton ATPase, Vglut1, and synaptotagmin 1, showed little intervesicle variation in number, indicating they are sorted to vesicles with high precision. In contrast, the apparent number of VAMP2/synaptobrevin 2, synaptophysin, and synaptogyrin demonstrated significant intervesicle variability. These findings place constraints on models of protein function at the synapse and raise the possibility that changes in vesicle protein expression affect vesicle composition and functioning.

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.
